Theses are great. I've had them for about a month. There's only a tiny tear on the side of the shoe. If you were to get Lakais, I suggest these ones.

Good shoe but nothing special for: black leather plaid laser - The shoe is good, but I've had better ones. First the picture is misleading. The plaid is only brown and light brown. There is no black on the plaid. Wearing white socks might be a bad idea because they will get slightly red on the bottom. Also, the side is made of rubber and the rubber melted slightly on the sides so it is very bumpy. The shoe back is also very low, but not low enough for the shoe to be flung off. It is pretty comfortable and I have yet to skate in them yet, but I assume it will be average. Overall it is a good shoe, but isn't worth sixty dollars.

They're okay. I thought the stripes were black, but I guess they're dark enough. Fit well and comfortable.
