I should have stated this in my previous post. I have the Dylan's (dress shoe), they fit long but are narrow...I bought them in a 12. I did do 3 tricks in them, they felt to big to skate. Is the Arto sizing similar to the Dylan's?

What width feet do you have? I've never tried the Janoski's. I'm sure you could stretch out the Dylan's. Have you tried the Busenitz? That's the only shoe I have to compare the Dylan's.

i think i tried on new balances and my feet are a med in that. but ive actually never tried on busenitz. but ive had shoes like eras and laced that are somewhat narrow and theyre pretty comfortable.
btw i hope you dont mind me stealing your sig for my avatar. if so i can go back to the cig pack.

I'll go try them on to make sure.......if you have a medium width foot you'll be fine. The Busenitz actually have less toe room for me. I would get them, plus they have the poron (sp) sole which is comforable.
Naw, I don't care if you took it.

I found the same with Janoskis (have to go a size down because of the stretching). If you have a fairly narrow foot, I'd also go a size down in the gravis (though i haven't had the dylan slip on, had filters and artos). They fit long but slightly narrow and they also stretch, make of that what you will.

Got my suede filter's in the mail today. I went a half size down but I should of just stuck with my normal size (10). I'm sure they will stretch out in a couple of skates.

skate dylan mids the canvas ones. and they rip so fast, i decided to not flip my board but it began ripping, however there is a layer underneath the canvas to protect your feet but i didnt risk to see how long that would last till it got to my socks. just like with any other shoe just shoe goe them and they will last at least 3 weeks preferbaly black shoe goe.
Other than the ripping, it feels really good to skate in these gravis'. Although ima have to disagree with their padding and poron i mean no heel bruises yet or anything like that but definitely your not gonna be jumpin down big stuff all day. i suggest switching them with tnt soles
but overall really good shoe, not worth their price but i get mine on sale for 25 each then its worth it, padding isnt meant to jump down stuff and get suede

not all Gravis have poron.. there should be a tag attached to the shoe when new saying it does. i think it is limited to the LX versions of some shoes. i know the arto LX do for sure. im not sure the filters do. even the LX ones.

Yeah, it'll have a tag saying if the insole is poron or not. If you look at their shoes on their website, it says it there too. I think there's a video already posted in the topic, but poron is a compound that absorbs pressure absurdly well without distorting its shape.

It's probably because you're trying too small of a size.

Didn't say anything on the tag about it, so I'm guessing that it doesn't got it.
