skate shoes

Skate shoes represent the latest evolution in footwear for youth. The first shoes to become a fad were Converse All-Stars or Chucks. Originally boys basketball shoes, they became street wear in the 50's. They re-emerged in the 60's and in each youth generation since. They became the first skateboard shoe, then Vans (old school) emerged in the late 60's. Nike became popular youth shoes in the 80's and dominated the youth culture until the advent of serious extreme sport skateboarding (new school). As skateboarding became mainstream and see as an extreme sport skate shoes have dominated youth footwear. Such names as DC, ES, DVS, Etnies, Osiris, Adio, Ipath, have competed heavily in style, grip, color scheme, and functionality. The youth cult embraces extreme sports and their leaders, as Shaun White, Tony Hawk, Ryan Sheckler, and others.

Dude, those are the coolest skate shoes I have ever seen, can I have 'em.

Shoes on a wire

Also called Shoe-tossing or shoefiti. This can be a commemoration for a fallen gang member or someone has died; the “this is for drugs” thing is a misconception.

Ernesto died last week in a drive by. So we put his Shoes on a wire to honor him.

shoe fag

A heterosexual man with an obsession with men's shoes. Often known to covet the shoes of other men and ask them uncomfortably personal questions regarding their shoes.

So, about your friend Bob I met the other night. He spent the entire ballgame staring at my feet.

Were wearing fancy shoes? Bob's kind of a shoe fag.

I guess that explains why he asked me if he could feel the leather.
