trust me dude expresses are good shoes. The only thing i dont like is that the grindplate isnt removeable.

People bitch about the Express plates not being removable.....but they don't complain about the Speedsters on the Scorchers not being removable

Aren't they almost the same shoe in terms of plate design?

From Experience

Pros:
Very light
Very cushiony
Great Lock on

Cons:
Cemented plates (if really rough, cement can start to seperate unless you recement it)

My express were a nice SOAP shoe, worked well, just my problem is i can only really find square rails, which the Express' lock on has trouble on becuase it comes to a V point. My bbk's and slo bros allow more room for square rails, but it's awesome for any circular rail.

yeah, my main complaint about the express is this.

artemis/in-stride had like...4 shoes (scorcher, praba, broadside, and flow) that had cemented plates...all the rest where lock on...so if you're plates got worn, you just spent 12 bucks and got new plates. you had a CHOICE of cemented plates or not...HSL shoes (being the EXACT SAME from the insole down) gives you NO choice...so cemented plates are not placed FOR you, they're there placed UPON you...

cemented plates are fine, if they're optional...HSL just pretty much said "if we don't make replaceable plates, then they'll have to spend ALOT more money to get new shoes...money in the bank"

express is a good shoe...only thing i dont like is the fact that the plate is not concave enough to me...works great but i put grooves in mine to make it better
