I would use vans or dc shoes for street skating especially if you are wanting to get serious about it. also nike makes a good street shoe. but it is really what is comfortable with you and what you are comfortable skating in. but all these shoes have a different grip so pick the one that you really are comforable skating in.
Yes
yes,for park skating and mostly half pipes
element ,Kfd, blind, almost and Evolution are all good street skating brands
uh... yeah
its an opinion but they are pretty cool
Urmm..skating shoes are the best for skateboarding no doubt..but..ive tried converse ...theyre not that bad....u wont get the same grip as u wud get from the skating shoes though
Yes, but its going to be very hard because from personal experience.. Osiris's are pretty stiff and have no grip... You're better off getting a good pair of running shoes
Supra footwear our DVS
Osiris shoes are awesome Vlado footwear is also a good brand toms shoes are verry nice but pricey
Yes, you should get a range from 53-56mm for street.
Yes, no doubt.
It is either Osiris for good designs or Nike,Adidas,Reebok for long last.
