   It looks like the Farmers have gone back to the original thick padding whilst the Basics have stayed the same.

   the farmer footwrap looks like it could be nice. i think xsjados looks as terrible today as they did when they first came out, we’ve just gotten used to them.

   It’s good to see some fresh news about xsjado, I hope conference didn’t change nothing on the skates. Xsjado is the best innovation since too many years…just think about that, just compare how many time dustin and shane spend to make this skate compare to Aragon and Murda who just think about some improvement of the crapest razors boots, I mean the genesis boots, not the new one which is might be good !

   lookin nicer.. especially the footwraps. but i still think they could make it more sleek and simple design rather than all these weird curves and uglyness.

   The basic shoe is the ugliest shit I ever seen … Could be better with a black shoe tho …

   Wasn’t the basic made to be the budget model?
   Then what’s the point when the budget model will cost € 280?

   I like the shoe but when I look at the prices of pre-order, I get naucious.

    seriously though hugo, you are full of shit!
    haha
    the genesis boot was sick, and still is!

    Don’t say I’m “full of shit” ‘cos i tried to be carefull about my sentences, but it seems to not work.
    I mean the Genesis boot is bad about the manufacturing. I’m not in good position to judge how good you can skate with that, but just look at the manufacture. The boots is so big, you’got too much lost space for your feet, I mean it’s not fitting or locked your feet very well, that’s why razors made the biggest liner ever, Jug, and the biggest shockabsorber, in order to complete the lost space in the boots… Genesis boots is cut with a knife, so i’m glad to see some improvement because they really need some, and people skate genesis since too many years just due to a good communication, with an influenced team. that’s mypoint of view, don’t pissed on it !

    some people i know, who are sponsored now a days buy different teams, say that they used to skate best whit genesys boot, so as you sayed, you arent in possision to judge.

    Genesys boot is the best there is in my opinion, it may be bit heavy and have some lost space, but that dosent make the controll over it bad, it actually even helps a pit. Still one tip, if you get your hans on some old high Jug or Reign liners, get rid of the oversized heelbad and add trs inersouls inside of liners, and youl get even more controll over the skate;), damn, im actually bit angry that they started to make lower liners.

    is it just me or do the footwraps look like they should be swapped with each other. i.e. the basic footwrap in the farmers, the farmers in the basics?

19. George Says:

    Who the hell still cares about Xsjado. I lost interest about two years ago when it became hard to find any replacement parts for my skates and also hard to find a new xsjado skate period. After all the time they had they turn around and give us the same damn skeleton in different colors? COME ON….

    George: i buy new xsjados every 6 months iv never had a problym finding new ones in a size 7 so i just keep the same foot wraps. iv had ever pair of xsjados out and ill get the basics coz they look nicer. plus you can buy a replacement box for xsjado comes with every bit you need.

    I really love xsjados and they are, personally, the best skates I have ever rode. I like the flex they offer while staying really snug to my feet at the same time.

    My complaints with xsjados - and it looks like they did not improve upon them - are as followed:

    - the fabric around the closure straps always rips away. after a month or so of skating the fabric comes off of the velcro and they just look crappy and don’t hold as well. if they could improve this it would give the skates a longer life
    - the buckle is great at first, but after numerous falls on that area it starts to lose its holding power. it becomes really loose and ineffective. If they could align the buckle so that it falls on top of the skate it might prevent it from constant contact with other materials
    - it is impossible to find replacement parts, especially for those I mentioned above. why make a skate if you can’t buy replacement parts for it. i can’t always spend $250+ to get new skates. sometimes i need them to last longer so parts make more sense.

    i think xsjado skates are the most comfortable skates period. i can skate these all day without my feet getting wrecked and hurting. i’ve skated everything and this is by far the best in my book. then again i have a size 13 foot and it is wide… so if ya got monster feet… go with xsjado’s!!!

    These are shipping from China now so they should be in US shops in the next few weeks. I personally cannot wait to get a crispy new pair of farmers and whisper sweet sweet nothings to them.

    If I skateboarded or just didn’t rollerblade and I saw Xsjado skates I would think rollerblading was easy with their oversized soul frames and freestyle frames. Give me a break! 75% of these kids now a days couldn’t do shit on a pair of old Rollerblade Tarmacs.

    I must aggree with Jai. Absolutely the most comfortable skate I’ve ever tried. No pressurepoints, total heel lock and just pure pleasure. The flexibility is one of the key factors. You can use your ankles when jumping off ramps or on rails. Some boots lock your ankle and restrain your natural foot and ankle movement -> cant jump high enough to catch that rail. And the fact that you have sneakers on where every you go is a nice bonus. (excuse my language)

    Nothing has changed, because nothing needs to change. I like what I see.

    I’d like to have a better look at the Farmer shoe though.

    those shoes looks nice.
    best looking xjado this far:D:D

33. so wack Says:
    February 24th, 2008 at 3:04 am

    they ONLY thing that xsjado needs to improve on in my opinion is the life of the parts, especially the buckle like vermontroller said. even if they just raised the plastic walls around the buckle to offer more protection, that would be great! because once that thing breaks (like mine) putting them on really sucks ass

    I wanna get some Xsjados, but im sooo broke at the moment. havent even got a job, but once i get some cash, dya reckon there’ll be any good for rough parks and quite a bit of uneven street?
    where I live, my local park has huge cracks in, and all the pavements are all over the place, and I’ve heard that mooks don’t really like rough ground, it true?
