    all our drivers wear pilotis. They like 'em, but they only wear them while driving. THey dont seem to be tough enough to put up with every day walking around it. More of a put on a few min before getting in the car and taking them off when you get out.

    Those shoes look like dual purpose shoes, the ones our drivers wear are all-out fuh-raze stylez.

      I have a pair of piloti driving shoes similar to those and I have found them to be very comfortable as well as durable for everyday use. Now as far as calling them skate look alike shoes I would never try to skate in them.

        Yeah, just joshin' ya' man. I really do prefer the Adistars or the Puma cats though. Puma just came out with a new cat that is pretty damn sharp looking and I've been looking into them.

                i have a pair of airwalk slip-ons. best driving shoes ever. its like wearing slippers with a sole.

                -e- in case youre wondering, driving in actual slippers is not a good idea. hurts the feets.

                  Great thread I was just thinking about getting some of these. They look to be good shoes.

                      I've got the Monaco's in Tan/blue and love them. They arn't bad for wearing around town either(I wore them every day for the first couple days I had them so I could get them nice and broken in)

                        I'm sure these work well....if you're not a hundred pounds overweight like me

                                i was thinkin about those actually, those exact ones... they look comfortable, they look the most "normal" out of all the piloti line ...even though i haven't skated for about a decade, i still just stick with "skateshoes" ... nothing beats their comfort
