Its better business for them cause when they get fuked up u gotta buy new ones.....also, they're lighter.........and these EXPRESS plates last longer......*my opinion.....but yea, perhaps we should all tell HSL what we think.....just dunt go threatening them....They maaad cool about ur opinion.....and who knows, maybe they'll start releasing some of the Good ol' models as well as sum new ones

I like my expresses, just don't get to use them a whole lot. At first htey will seem really uncomfertable due to the raised sides, but the air shock in the heel, and the way they are formed actually really helped my feet. I used to suffer from chronic feet pain, and ever since i got them, don't have it no more.

by the way, you WONT be wasting ur money....its DEFINETLY worth it

Agreed, the Express is an awesome shoe. Very comfortable and as long as you don't grind rough surfaces all the time the plates will go a long way.
