Scab
Release: Unknown



Grindplate: UHF Original

The Soap Scab was one of Soap's longest running models. People either like the old-school styling of the Scabs, or they hate it. Anyway, the Scabs have quadruple stitching and smooth leather outer. To keep your foot in the place, the Scab features a premolded heel counter, and for those big drops and long walks the Scabs have a polyurethane sockliner for maximum comfortability. The only drawback to the shoe (besides the original grindplate) was that it was very heavy. The Scabs have been one of Soap's most popular models, and comes in a large variety of colors. Scab's come styling with replacable Original grind plates.

Newer releases featured the Slo Bro Grindplate.

Colors:
-Dumb as Dirt Brown (brown / white)
-Cheer Blue & Gold (light blue / tan)
-Navy (navy blue / white)
-White (all white)
-Bumblebees (black / gold)
-Black (black / white)
-Smoke (grey / white)
-Moss (green / white)
-Maroon (maroon / white)

Sizes: 3-13 (Navy came in 14)

I just got some black and dark grey scabs at gadzooks for just $30! I love em! The are really smooth looking and great on rails. The plates are slowbros and are really durable on curbs, ledges, benches, etc. The shoes are very comfortable too.

Overall they are a great shoes and great plates.

GET THEM IF YOU CAN!

Apr 7, 2006 pballer917

how much do they cost

Apr 7, 2006 soaphoax

they look mint!!

Apr 8, 2006 Surfaced

Guys... stop asking questions like this here. Put them in the forum. The price varies from site to site, but its around 60 pounds.

Don't do this again.

Apr 14, 2006 AnthoFlex

It sucks though....i want Scabs....i personally think that Scabs are the best looking ones (except for the scorchers) But they dunt deliver to the U.S. Does anyone know a site where they deliver to the U.S?

Apr 15, 2006 mgm

look at the forum. Don't ask questions here.

Apr 30, 2006 AnthoFlex

I honestly think that if the scorchers are SOnic's shoes....then the Scabs are Shadows..if u airbrush the smoke scab and give it a red plate... lmao XP

Apr 30, 2006 Surfaced

I can't picture what you're seeing, man... But keep in mind, Shadow doesn't have real shoes. The white on those them look like a glossy plastic, and they have mini thrusters on the bottoms, so that his feet don't touch the ground when he runs (infact, when he runs, he appears to be rollerblading). And his shoes don't have grindplates; just a large arch.

Apr 30, 2006 AnthoFlex

hmm.....i did this with photoshop....this'll clear it up: The bottom is the original Smoke Scabs and the top is the "Shadow" Scab

DAMN!(in a surprised, gangsta voice). Point proved....

Apr 30, 2006 AnthoFlex

dun worry about it dude...lmao i first had the idea when i saw the scabs on flywalk...i was like...HOLY SHIT! THOSE ARE SHADOW'S!!

May 2, 2006 AnthoFlex

ok nvm.....the broadsides are shadow's....just look at the picture at th top of the page in this link....

http://derek.broox.com/

just look at them...LMAO :P

Those are A-Sides...

Hate them.

Jun 20, 2006 grinder116

Where can I GET THEM in Vancouver or Halifax?

Aug 4, 2006 Kile

Personally these are my favorite Soap shoe. They are a real eye catcher. I found a pair on katesskates.co.uk for 52 pounds. Believe
it or not the Scabs on that website are orange/black pretty kool.

Aug 4, 2006 SonicSoaper

AnthoFlex's Shadow Soaps mod is good but there is no yellow on Shadow's shoes, just red. Maybe for the mini-thrusters on the bottoms but you'd have to paint the bottoms of the shoes for that effect.

Aug 4, 2006 AnthoFlex

ok.....but i think we can all agree that there are NO Soaps for Shadow here....just sum that come close...if you look at the top of the pagehere, the A-sides at that angle look like Shadow's

Aug 4, 2006 AnthoFlex

stupid HTML code..... http://derek.broox.com/ there at the top of the page check em out

Aug 4, 2006 SonicSoaper

Yeah, they do.

Aug 13, 2006 SapAuthor

i'm having my friend get a pair of these, what are they like for comfert though. I know its ays it has a sock lining, but is it to heavy to be noticed, or do they really fit the feet well like my express' do for my feet?

Aug 14, 2006 Rick

I snatched the size 10s with SloBros up on eBay at the last minute, should arrive sometime within the week. I'm excited.

Aug 14, 2006 Tatacker

^ ZOMG. I was fighting for the 11's, but I got outbid in the last 8 seconds. Gah.

Aug 15, 2006 SapAuthor

Rick, lol i think you got hte pair that i was getting for my friend, the bidding end and i didn't even know it lol. oh well, i'm keeping an eye out for another pair of size 10s for him, not sure if the broadsides will be confy (although they are sweet with the slipknot plate.)

Oct 10, 2006 SPSR

i love this shoe, my friend has a pair of navy blue/white scabs and there just awesome. the shoe itself feels realy comfortable and the design is one of my favorites, (all time this and the sqeaky cleans imperial, designs are the best looking shoe with replacable grind plates.)
the pair i used had a bbk and a uhf plate (each used respectively at a different time.) i have to say the BBK is one of my favorites.

I lost a bid on a pair of these from southernbelt on e-bay and now im back to looking for some shoes with replacable plates. (i REALLY don't want my schorchers to die.)

Oct 10, 2006 mnsoaperns

Mmm love this shoe, so much wearing them now... touching them ever so softly just the way they like it.... while drinking a smoothie and knowing that my hersheys cream pie is on its way....

Oct 15, 2006 Kru

This was my first pair of soaps back in 2000'ish. Bah sucks I grew out of them! I think there size 9 if I remember. I don't remember if I still have them but I believe I kept these babies. Oh do I so miss the old days of curb surfing. I wish I had a size 11 shoe *sob*

Oct 21, 2006 snikas

i own these shows in navy blue/white. There nice lookin show but the grind plates that come with them are terrible! They dont slide as well as you would think but they work so what the hell.

Oct 30, 2006 pantone332

go to ebay im gettin some off there

Oct 30, 2006 matrix8967

hopefully not the same ones I'm getting >:(

---Alex

Oct 30, 2006 matrix8967

WOW, I just bid on these and some Douchebag tried to sniper me in the last 5 seconds!! 5 freaking seconds...(s)he lost...but still! anyway, point being, I just picked up some used smoke scabs for like $22.00!

---Alex

Oct 30, 2006 SonicSoaper

Good job on the bid but I'd try to go for new instead of used. It's like buying bowling shoes.

Oct 30, 2006 matrix8967

yeah, I'm not a fan of used, but I'm gonna (TOUGH ACTIN'!)Tinactin them, unlace them and let them sit for a day.

they come with UHF originals but i'm gonna put on some slo-bros or bbk's...I'll probably smash the UHF originals with a hammer.

---Alex

Nov 5, 2006 matrix8967

yeah, UHF original sucks...however, these shoes are awesome...

---Alex

Nov 5, 2006 Kru

the UHF original are better then these sorry arse HSL express plates.

Nov 6, 2006 SonicSoaper

HEY! Don't diss the Expresses. They're great plates. As for Tinactin, I can do a pretty good John Madden and it's hilarious to see him on those commericals.

BOOM! Tough actin Tinactin!

Nov 7, 2006 Kru

HSL plates aren't made out of delrin there just basic poly nylon blend which explains why curbs just eats it up. Its like grinding on PVC pipe basically

Nov 7, 2006 SonicSoaper

Still no denying that Expresses are nice plates.

Nov 7, 2006 Kru

*points up at scabs* I had size 9, loved the UHF plate and still am used to its gnarliness. The lock on express plate is nice but just interferes on curbs and ledges and gets all eaten up. Well UHF plates are basic thats why I like them.. there are no tricks to the user its all their own skill and mastery like heeling...

Nov 8, 2006 Curtinator

Snikas your shoes must be messed or something unless your plates are really crappy. My brother Namlhof has the scabs and he has Slo-bro plates and it slides very nice.

Nov 8, 2006 snikas

yo i got mine off ebay for $40 and they came with crappy UHF plates. if anyone wants to get new plates do not get UHF they blow. Trust me you will have a more difficlut time grinding with the UHF's.

Nov 21, 2006 StillxTrue

i just got a pair off of ebay for $30 and they came with slo bro's I had mine on for less then two hours at school and have gotten into to trouble twice one time for going down the stairwell rail during class change and second for setting up a couple of tables sideways and just messin around on them lol over all these shoes are pretty amazing the slo bro plates are alot better then the originals that the older models came with they lock pretty well in my opinion

Jan 25, 2007 RamenRadio

Hey Renny, how do you like these shoes? I might be getting a pair of these.

Jan 31, 2007 cherryman696966

i have a pair of them. their nice but the UHF plate sucks. i'm trying to find a place where i can buy slo bros to make them better.

Feb 1, 2007 cherryman696966

which plates would be the best for them?

Feb 1, 2007 matrix8967

I have smokes, and I replaced the Original plate with some Slo-Bros and they're pretty bitchin.

---Alex

Feb 1, 2007 the5cooliest

that dickface alex is the leader of the soap team i am on and when i was getting my soaps he always said that scabs were ugly. he gets some for ten dollars they are awsome i wish i did not listen to him

---robert

Feb 1, 2007 SonicSoaper

It's not that people's skill get's me mad, it's the fact that they call themselve "team leader." I want to end it once it for all. All teams, no matter what sport or discipline, have a captain, not a leader a CAPTAIN. Leaders are for action cartoons and most anime. Let's end the whole leader idea right now.

Feb 1, 2007 matrix8967

yeah, I'm captain...or El-capitan, or sir, or whatever you want to call me :D leader is lame. and I'll admit it, i used to HATE scabs...I always thought the looked like submarines or something...until I got a pair.

---Alex

Feb 2, 2007 cherryman696966

so i should go w/ slo bros?

yeah slo bros are great

Mar 1, 2007 Slidey

My first Soaps were these, once I ground down the grindplates I bought Boltar's because I didn't know they were replaceable because I didn't read the label properly lol.

I got the black and white ones, thier the best style I think.

Mar 1, 2007 Slidey

Mine are REALLY worn now, I think I might spray them completely black to cover up all the cess slide scrapes and stuff.

Mar 1, 2007 AnthoFlex

Those arent rare, but they are *in my opinion* one of the better looking ones

Mar 1, 2007 RamenRadio

Damn! I like the look of those!

Some "Dumb as Dirt Brown" Scabs appeared on eBay. Those are pretty uncommon.

Jun 4, 2007 RamenRadio

I just got some navy scabs, they are so nice. The color is a little faded, but that doesn't matter to me as much as how great they grind.

Jun 13, 2007 AnthoFlex

I really want a pair of the Moss or Bordeaux scabs, i think they look sick

Jun 13, 2007 Megashadow77

Scabs look so sick, I just wish I could find a pair in size 10....

Jun 19, 2007 Megashadow77

Hey, renny, I know you said it in February, but are you still thinkin' bout sellin' your scabs?

Jun 19, 2007 AnthoFlex

My friend grew out of his Navy ones and gave em to me. Now i have 1 Black/White (rare) and 1 Navy/White (common). I'm thinking about selling the Navy ones. (they are brand-new looking) But i'm not too sure yet. I'll keep you posted.

Jun 19, 2007 Megashadow77

Okay, thanks, what size are they? 10?

Jun 19, 2007 AnthoFlex

Yup, both are

Sep 15, 2007 RamenRadio

My uncle got a pair of moss scabs off ebay, he freaking loves them.

He wonders why I like soap shoes so much, so he decides to get a pair for himself to see what it's all about.

He thinks they are the most comfortable shoes in the world or something XD. He might consider grinding, he's not so sure yet :D

Sep 15, 2007 greenfire8484

i want these. Please?

Sep 16, 2007 RamenRadio

wtf?

Sep 29, 2007 AnthoFlex

Its wierd, there are only 9 listed colors of the scabs, but in my shoe library i have 12

These be my shoes,boy. I love 'em

Jan 29, 2008 tesvich

Can you put the BBK plates on the scabs? Because they better right? Sorry im new. I like the look of these alot but want the best performance.

Jan 29, 2008 RamenRadio

yes you can

Jan 29, 2008 RamenRadio

you just need to find the right size bbk plates with your soap shoes

Jan 29, 2008 RamenRadio

bbk plates aren't perfect, but they work out very nicely.

Jan 29, 2008 tesvich

alright thanks

Sep 22, 2008 anaholaboys

how're you liking your scabs, pluh?

Sep 23, 2008 Pluh

Ah man, their my favorite soap shoe, even though I've only owned 3 pairs so far haha. Their so much tougher than the goas and I think they'll last a really long time. I was worried at first that the size 11 would be to tight, but their actually a perfect fit.

Best purchase ever!

Feb 18, 2009 DamienBlack

I just got some size 13 scabs on ebay. They came with UHF orginals and they work pretty good seeing as there are barely any rails here. just a shitload of ledges that are pretty fun

Feb 21, 2009 jamjam0

hello

Good luck in just finding Scabs. They haven't been in production for ages.

Feb 21, 2009 jamjam0

Feb 21, 2009 jamjam0

Dude, if you're a 7, get a 7

Feb 22, 2009 jamjam0

Feb 26, 2009 Joshua3109

no they are not

Aug 11, 2009 failmaster

i like bumblebees

Dec 16, 2009 Tedd

Are BBK's better or Slo-Bro's? If I'm to get some replaceable plated shoes, I wanna know I'm getting a good/the best set of plates.

Dec 16, 2009 sylonbroadsides

I'd recommend the bbks, slo bros make you grind a lot slower until you wear in your plates. You can always replace the plates though.

Dec 16, 2009 Tedd

I might get both then, just so I can get a feel for both of them.

Feb 1, 2010 SuperAluigi

Will be getting my first pair of Navy Scabs tomorrow or Tuesday, proper can't wait. Also considering getting some Sylons.

Mar 23, 2010 GHsoccerjoe23

where can i order em

Mar 23, 2010 Brad

eBay.

Mar 24, 2010 SpiderSoaper

Got these today in smoke. they look pretty damn sweet in real life, and they feel really tough, they feel like they could take alot of good beatings and not mess up.

those who hate uhf original plates most likely never got a groove in them, cause i think they slide pretty damn good. plus they are comfy as fuck.

Mar 24, 2010 Brad

Are they heavy? They seem heavy to me for some reason.

Mar 24, 2010 SpiderSoaper

they are heavier than the express from what i remember. but i rollerblade, so it doesnt really bother me.

Mar 24, 2010 Brad

Right on. Where did you get 'em btw?

Mar 24, 2010 SpiderSoaper

bought them off some dude on the aggressivemall.com messageboard

Mar 24, 2010 Brad

Huh, I;ll have to check it sometime.

Mar 24, 2010 Tedd

I'm importing a s**tload of shoes from Rawk, and it's including a bunch of Scabs, Cleans, etc. I hear that they all are a lot heavier and less padded, so should I let everyone I know about that or should they not worry about it?

I'm sure the total cost of the shoes are going to be well over 400 dollars, 200 for the shoes alone. Then the importing cost is going to be probably another 200 because of from the site's shipping and the cost to have it re-shipped to my place. Gah. What I do for my friends..

Anyone want a pair while I'm at it? I'm calling about 40-50 dollars a pair if you want some. The price of shipping will depend on where you live of course, but I can try to hook you up with shoes. Just email me at sonny dot canasa gmail com. I'm sure you can figure out the formatting for the email. I need your shoe size and your model. Check out Rawk and let me know what you want. I'm going to buy all the shoes in one bulk order, so I'll let you know when I've placed the order and when I get the package.

Mar 24, 2010 Revengasaur

I'll be grabbing some ted, check your e-mail.

Mar 24, 2010 SpiderSoaper

i'm interested Tedd. i was thinking bout some size 8 (UK 7) boltars (white/grey ones). just let us know when your gonna do this and how much you want

Mar 24, 2010 Tedd

Haha. I didn't think I'd be this popular in 5 hours. I thought maybe after two days I'd get an order or something. Huh. Well, I'm looking to get shipping costs from Point A to Point B, then B to C. A being Rawk, B a friend's house, C being home. That total will be accounted into how much the shoes will cost. I'm willing to lose 10-15% of the original value for my friends, so don't worry about it too much.

Now remember, this is in NO WAY a guarantee. I make no promises on getting you the shoes. If I can't afford them all, then I apologize if I couldn't get yours, but do keep in mind that I am ABLE to do so. So just because I can't at the moment doesn't mean that I can't later on.

The current estimated total for the shoes are 40-50$ US dollars. The shipping weight in total I imagine will be... Ugh. Factor in 15 pairs of shoes. Figure out how much tha'd be from the UK to the US.

Okay, lastly here's the deal: Just like with my friends, I trust you guys with this. If you can't pay the full amount at the time, then pay me what you can and just keep paying until you've got it all payed off. I will order the shoes for you and send them to you, but I will be keeping tabs on all of you. Again, I trust all of you so please don't make me not do this for anyone on here again.

Mar 24, 2010 Tedd

Also, I'll be posting it in a new thread. Just so people see it where it belongs.

Mar 24, 2010 Brad

Aw man, right as I just bought some used ones :|



Oh well, maybe another time you could order me a pair? :)

May 1, 2010 treflipjohn

these were my first pair. I liked them a lot.

Oct 21, 2010 winglessavian

scabs are good, and they vary from the first generation to the second in mass. Soap changed their models slightly, even though it was the same model.

Oct 20, 2011 gongon1037

can anyone tell me where i can get a pair of these shoes. i would like to know.

Nov 7, 2011 RamenRadio

one of my favorite pairs... also on kateskates

Jan 8, 2012 Lightninnova

these are good there just like my cleans, only issues are the standard plates are hard to use and thre bulky so there hard to run in and stuff, but they hold together well!

Feb 20, 2012 RamenRadio

HSL had a prototype of these combined with the lower of the express, it was sick stuff.

Feb 20, 2012 Brad

stop it, youre making me sad.

Feb 20, 2012 RamenRadio

lmao making you sad? I had a prototype of them and I sold them for 90 bucks, I'm the one that's sad! ahaha

I've done the vast majority of my soaping in a couple of pairs of scabs and I love them. They're great, just make sure to lace them up nice and tight.

they are a pretty sick color scheme

Does anyone know when they started making scabs with slo bros and how long those were in production?

May 14, 2013 Revengasaur

They were the second run of the original shoes, so most likely for around two years in 1999-2001, right before the company fumbled it's licensing rights, (or whatever happened), fell apart and was bought by in-stride.

May 14, 2013 Revengasaur

Most, but not all of the slobro equipped scabs have soapshoes.com embroidered on the tongue. Some don't, and came with slobros, some do and came with UHFs. Inconsistency in product quality was a major setback for Soap as a brand.

May 14, 2013 Relate2Videos

If you guys really wanted to know the exact dates, you could check the old catalog on the darconet archive dario has, either that or search for them on archive.org by searching dor the old soapshoes.com

The reason I dont look it up is because I dont think it really matters truth be told.

I dont think soap exactly fell apart, I just think he sold the company. Check the thread I reposted brotha

May 14, 2013 Revengasaur

In the story(s) I've heard various places
Chris Morris got in legal trouble at some point over something to do with soaps. The rest of the company execs decided to jump ship, and so Chris said fuck it and the company was sold to in-stride. The history of soap is shrouded in mystery, because most of the dudes that were active in the company back then are totally over it. Whatever happened to the Lords Of Soaptown documentary that was supposed to come out? Whatever happens to anything positive having to do with soaps?

May 14, 2013 Relate2Videos

There are only three people who know anything about soap shoes, and that would be Chris Morris, Renny, and Steve Deel. Chris you can contact on the dinosoles website or his personal facebook. Renny or steve you can email them, they are posted on solid grind.

Im not sure why chris sold the company truth be told, and suposedly another company owned soap before it got into instrides hands. Yiu really need to contact steve about that though, I was never able to get those details.

ya know, these'd make for some pretty nice casual shoes, 'specially the white ones with black originals, I can imagine being at my family reunion, teaching the kids how to grind and seeing them bail.

Oct 11, 2013 grug250
