Best place to buy DC shoes?

[DragZilla]

wheres the best place to buy DC shoes in town?
places like west 49, the source always have a shitty selection of DC shoes.

[teknical]

I usually go to the source, skaters, sometimes mission, or just get em directly off their website.

I got my last pair at "Extreme" in North Hill, I believe they have one in Sunridge too now.

[DragZilla]

I'll have to check some of those places out, thanks guys

I buy all my shoes from the States, buying shoes in Canada is such a rip off

DC is a Canadian company so I don't see how going to the states would be cheaper?

Agreed. The selection and price in the States is a lot better.

[teknical]

well Vegas has a DC outlet store that has amazing prices. I always spend 4-500 bucks when i go there because they have the selection that Canada doesnt. But still, Skaters and the source have probably the biggest selection in Calgary.

I thought DC was Canadian... shit I was wrong. I thought DC's head office was in Calgary... Hmm maybe just the Canadian Division Head Office.

LOL I think about as many guys who wear skate shoes actually skate as girls who wear yoga pants do yoga.
Last time I bought shoes at Mission the guy working there asked if I skated and was shocked when I said yes haha.

Yeah my DC shoes have held up for years, and roughly skated. I also drag my heels when I walk too lol and they are still standing. I love mine.

I like my DC's, thus far very comfy since August..

[schurchill39]

If you actually skate stay away from suede shoes, Garbage... I had a pair of duffs that lasted a week of skating before the grip tape ripped a hole through them.

My best all around shoes have definitly been my DC's, they have been the most comfortableand durable and I have worn all sorts of brands back when I used to skate (incl. circa, emerica, osiris, etnies, duffs, and a few other brands I cant remember)

Just to reitterate (sp?) They are DEFINITLY NOT canadian... Their brand name is "DC Shoe Co USA"

[thrasher22]

I've never had a problem with suede shoes when I skate, just make sure its not a really soft suede, in which case you're asking to ruin them skating.
I love my circa's, they're the most comfortable shoes since my DC's from back in high school, the tounges breath better than most shoes too.
