Does anyone remember these? They were sorta like skate/grind shoes, that had interchangable plates. Sonic Adventure 2 would have to be one of my favorite games of all time, and the shoes were heavily advertised in the game. I've seen a couple pairs on eBay (not in my size), and they're  ing amazing. I like the look of these more than just about any shoe on the market. I google it, but I just get pics and out of stock merchandise. These super-athletic shoes actually make me want to try a few tricks. Does anybody know where I can get them? Like, a retail outlet, or a website? I'm seriously stumped, and I've been googling every keyword for about an hour now. |

I remember back in the early 2000s I was obssesed with them because I loved SA2, and I searched where to find them all the time but could never find them. Then a few months later I saw they were in some little skateboarding store right outside of Harrisburg (capital of PA) but by that time I was not intreasted. I wonder if they still have them, and what price they are.

There's a pair (sz 11) on eBay for like $60....Everywhere else ranges from $50 - $80. |

i ahd about 6 pairs of soaps. my friend was sponsored by them. so i would get a deal. i also sold them at the rollerblade shop i worked at. the factory was in my town as well. and i got to go on a tour of it once. sad to say but they went out of business. so ebay would probly be your best bet. but they sure are fun. back in 2000-2001 me and all my rollerblade friends had them and we would grind on the ledged in high school. and the teachers couldnt do anything about it. it was awsome!

They are not called soap shoes. They are called Soapies.
And yes I liked them
I however hated when the Heely thing put them on. That was gay.

They were banned at my school because some kid wrecked himself pretty bad trying to grind down some stair set from the 3rd floor.
