Mike Malyan
(Disperse / Session Drummer)
"I think any heavy-footed drummer can agree with me, that the shoes you play really matter! If they don't, I believe it is only a matter of time, until they discover that certain shoes will really benefit their performance! These Vratim shoes have really opened up my feet, having support in all the right places, but nothing over the ankle that would restrict movement. They breathe enough that I don't notice my feet in puddles on the hottest shows, the grip is more favourable to a dampened footplate than any other I've tried, and they are super strong around all of the bending points that a heel-up player's shoes would usually break at. Just get them already goshdangit!"
