Apr 13, 2006 Surfaced

Hey.... I've seen White Sylons in a size 14.

Apr 13, 2006 soaphoax

oo where?...

Apr 19, 2006 Surfaced

eBay and Blade School.

And by the by, the bottom of the Blue Sylon is black, but has the classic tennis-shoe color too. My point is that the bottom is not entirely black.

Apr 21, 2006 AnthoFlex

I agree its not supposed to be entirely black

Apr 21, 2006 teamhoax

Oct 3, 2006 highroller

Just got a pair of sylons on ebay for $40...psyched!!! Can't wait to break em in. Ebay is def the best place to get soaps right now, especially size 11 or 12.

Oct 16, 2006 Krammit

Just got my sylons today. They fit wonderfully, very comfortable shoe. I now realize an 11 would have proably been to small.

Oct 16, 2006 AnthoFlex

What plates came with it Krammit?

Oct 16, 2006 Krammit

Replaceable BBK's that say "patent pending"

Oct 21, 2006 snikas

Jan 24, 2007 RamenRadio

My favorite shoes! These are the soaps that I use now, and they aren't bad at all. ^_^

Jan 24, 2007 AnthoFlex

No they arent. Actually (if im not misaken) The sylons and the Ordnances were favorites amongst the world's best Soapers

Feb 5, 2007 RamenRadio

Is it just me, or are these shoes THE MOST COMFORTABLE SHOES EVER!!!?!? I love these shoes so much, my feat are litterly begging me to go back in my sylons as soon as take them off. No joke. I don't know about other shoes, but god these shoes are one of the best. :D

Mar 5, 2007 kobansora

Mar 5, 2007 matrix8967

Very nice. I'm going to take much better care of these than my Boltars... Because I made a lot of noob mistakes with the Boltars (Grinding on unpainted concrete, cess slides, falling, etc).

~JJ

Mar 5, 2007 matrix8967

Mar 14, 2007 ordnanceflint91

got my black sylons today. i think they are my favorite soap shoe now. not 100% sure though. so far they are really comfortable. i love them great style soap shoe

Apr 6, 2007 kobansora

My gunmetal Sylons are now scuffed and tinted blue because of my pants lol. My friend scuffed them up :c I need some nail polish remover.

My Sylons are not white anymore! NOOOEs

~JJ

Apr 6, 2007 Mart

Nail polish remover contains acetone, which could melt the plastics of the shoe. Since the dyes used in denim are water-based, cleaning them with water and a small amount of soap or detergent will do the trick

Apr 6, 2007 kobansora

Acetone is gonna be used to clean the scuffs off the soles of the shoe.. LIke the outside sole lol. I'm not gonna use that much though.

~JJ

Apr 6, 2007 Mart

I wouldn't advise using acetone on rubber either, to be honest; synthetic rubber is a plastic, and what do you think nail polish is made of? Even if you use a small amount, it could still melt and deform the sole

I'd be more inclined to use methylated spirit or white spirit instead as they're both much less likely to attack the rubber. How are they scuffed, anyway? Generally speaking, scuffing is caused by physical abrasion and can't be 'cleaned' as a residue isn't formed

Apr 6, 2007 kobansora

NOOOOOOOOOOOES! I fucking hate my friend now :c Gotta be noob and fall off curbs and scuff my shoes, and do nothing but laugh about it.

~JJ

Apr 6, 2007 snikas

damn i i dont really let my friends use my shoes accept for one he also soaps but any way orther peopl dont care if they fuck up ur shoes cuz there not theirs

Apr 7, 2007 Mart

Dude, they're shoes. The rubber is going to be scuffed and worn down over time anyway. How come you let him wear them if you want to keep them in good condition?

Apr 7, 2007 kobansora

I wanted to wear down my own shoes! lol

I let him wear them for like, one night b/c he wanted to try out Soaping. He got pretty good at grinding after a bit but damn lol. W/e, he has connections with his grandma in the UK so I can at least order UK soaps through him.

~JJ

Apr 7, 2007 snikas

no i dont mean i keep me shoes in perfect condition its because i let my friend use my sylons for the day and he ripped the rubber of the soul and the sides had rips alover

Apr 7, 2007 RamenRadio

I try to keep my shoes in good condition too. Especially my sylons, they are one of my favorite shoes. Yeah, I know one day they will wear down, but I still respect these shoes more than I do my whole entire school. Maybe even the town as well.

Apr 18, 2007 kobansora

Someone knows what I'm talkin about ;P

~JJ

Apr 18, 2007 RamenRadio

lol definitely :D

Apr 19, 2007 RamenRadio

If I were rich, I'd plop a million dollars on HSL's doorstep, and demand the release of these shoes lol. They were Chris Morris's favorite shoes, come on!

Apr 19, 2007 pepsi

or u could just buy soap :P...maybe

Apr 19, 2007 SonicSoaper

yep. He could wash all the people in the world with his Soap.

Apr 29, 2007 RamenRadio

hey, who else has a pair of these shoes?

Jun 12, 2007 SapAuthor

Hey everyone, quick question, do these shoes have the flexible rubber sole or the rock solid one? The flexible ones you can push in with ur finger and it will move, rock solid (like cleans) you can't. The flexible rubber is the most comfertable, i need it and the high arch of SOAPs for my feet to feel good. Right now i have cleans and the sole is rock solid >.>

Jun 12, 2007 RamenRadio

I believe the ordinances and the cleans had the rock solid sole and the sylons did not have the rock solid sole. I'm checking out my sylons and it doesn't really seem "rock hard".

Jun 12, 2007 AnthoFlex

I have a pair of Gunmetals

Jul 28, 2007 Megashadow77

Gunmetal Sylons= Sexy, not quite as sexy as the CObalt Boltars, but still sexy.

Jul 28, 2007 Page645

i think navy scabs are sexier than colbalt boltars

Jul 28, 2007 Megashadow77

That is why you fail!

Jul 28, 2007 AnthoFlex

Just to let you know Megashadow, the gunmetals aren't shown above

Jul 28, 2007 Megashadow77

errr....shit, I meant black....

Jul 28, 2007 AnthoFlex

The Gunmetals are pretty good-looking as well

Jul 28, 2007 Megashadow77

Really, what do they look like?
