This is a really nice looking bag. I like the pattern on the bag, and the blue around the zippers is very nice looking. I like the feel of the bag, I can tell it will last a long time! I can hold alot of things, which is great. The strap doesn\'t cut into you when you have heavy loads, and that is another plus. I also like the organizational pockets inside, that help keep some of the smaller things in place, so they don\'t get lost in the bag. The onlly thing that could have made the bag even more perfect, is if the padding on the strap had some rubber or grip on it, rather than what feels like felt on it. It slips a little bit as I walk. I love the slip in the back so I can put it over my rolling luggage when I travel. Most bags you put on top of the luggage and it falls off, but this one stays as if it is part of the rolling luggage! I also like the shorter straps that I can hold the bag and carry it that way, and I can even put the bag on my shoulder that way, and that helps at times after carrying a heavy bag. I can\'t wait to really start to use the bag, I\'m sure it will age well, after all it is an Oakley! And like usual Zappos was great!

When I was headed to the states I figured I'd take a look at your website. I had already been a little disappointed with the fact that your Canadian site seems to carry a much smaller inventory than its American parent, and still priced items in American dollars (though I can understand the difficulty in currency translations with an international company). However, once I found the shoes I wanted (for a good deal too mind you), I soon discovered I wasn't able to ship to an American address while billing a Canadian credit card. I phoned the sales line and was pleasantly surprised with how courteous and accommodating the sales rep was. The order placement was quick and easy, and having said I was ordering from Victoria and only had a week before arriving, I was even provided with vip.zappos.com access for faster returns and shipping. So kudos for that! FYI, one of the pairs of shoes I ordered was for my girlfriend who manages the support department at a locally-based software company. Upon telling her where I ordered the shoes and how pleased I was with the service, she informed me that her company, as well as others, use your highly-regarded customer service protocols as a model to better their own customer relations! So all-in-all, I'd give you 2 thumbs up and a pat on the back, but you're an internet company, so I can't. And I just realized this was a review for the pair of shoes I bought, and not the service provided. My bad. So briefly, the shoes fit great and look good, too! Thanks Zappos.

Good Shoe - The shoes are insane. They are super comfy and fit exactly to size. The only thing was that at first the tongue felt a little snug on the top of the foot, but it went away very quickly. They skate really well, too. Board feel is just like vulcanized… plus the padding. So perfect! Shoe is my size and style.

Vans AV3 - I have stayed true to Vans for a long while, but was recently considering trying the Gazelle that Adidas skateboarding released. Then I found the AV3. Essentially, Anthony Van Engelen wanted his own version of what Dennis Busenitz has with his pro Gazelle shoe from Adidas, and the AV3 is as close to a replica of that as you will find. Great design, cool colorways (also check out the blue & white version), super comfortable, and solid for skating. It’s perfect for skaters looking for great board control/feel & who love to rip at top speed.

AV3's - It’s a pretty decent shoe. Vans are great shoes, but durability wise they're not the best as opposed to other companies. They’re a bit tight then what I'm used to, I usually skate Lakai and Lakai only. I like them, and the durability is the only problem.
