DC True S - SUPER SUEDE, DC's version of suede that is 50% more durable - Eyelets on medial side - Foam padded tongue and collar - Lightweight mesh tongue - Full-length, lightweight DROP-IN CUSHION SYSTEM for exceptional shock and board feel - Rubber toe wrap - Abrasion-resistant sticky rubber outsole - Imported

The Good

A comfortable well built shoe with a classic clean design. The True S wears well as a cold weather shoe in the winter months through the combination of the high end suede and the full rubber toe wrap. The shoe is well built with the skater in mind, so wearing the True S as an everyday shoe will give the consumer a solid product with a lot of life. We dig the fact that the tongue is not enormous, and the four color systems the shoe is offered in are all stylish.

The Bad

The only concern we have is if the suede will clean up easily after a day spent trackside stomping through the mud. Time will tell as Lake Whitney and Oak Hill are just around the corner.

The Bottom Line

All in all, a classic skate style shoe with a very clean design. If you think these are rad, you might want to check out the FRIT S and Cres S shoes also available on the holiday '09 page at www.dcshoes.com
