DVS – Daewon CT

The DVS Daewon CT is designed to be simple as requested by the man himself, I found this to be fairly true when I brought a pair – the design is simple and there isn’t any overly complicated features which can be a good thing.

In terms of comfort, they’re pretty comfortable once you’ve worn them in but until that happens I found them to be fairly stiff which affected how they skated originally – it took a good couple of days of skating to properly wear them in but after I did I was fairly impressed with what they had to offer. Because of the simplicity you do have a good feel of the board and flip tricks are easy to perform, they lacked a little bit in terms of grip but this didn’t affect my tricks in a major way.

For all the good this shoe brings in terms of actually skater, their lack of durability let them down in a big way. They pretty much started to give way to holes after only a week or so and after 3-4 weeks they were pretty much toast and new shoes were needed. Overall if you can afford a new pair of shoes after a month then by all means buy these cause they do skate well but if not give them a miss.
