the Cael V.3 and Dan Gable Ultimates have the best grip around.
No kidding. The grip on the Cael V3s is excellent. I got it along with the Rulons, and the Cael's grip is a lot better. Both fit great on my wide feet, with the Rulons being a little tighter, but they should stretch out a bit after some use.
I also got to try on the John Smith adistrike, same size as the Caels and Rulons, and damn are those shoes tight. I can barely get my foot in and it's tight to the point of rather unpleasant pain, lol. Asics really do seem better for guys with wide feet.
These are the best shoes i've ever seen. If I had a choice of what to get it would be either the old school original Adidas Combat Speed or the old school original Onisuka Tigers.
I won a pair of those Onitsuka Tigers on ebay. Great looking shoes.
I also managed to snag some Combat Speed IIs, but in half a size down. After my experience with the adidas John Smiths, I'm not so confident that they'll fit well. Damn, lol.
