I'm currently skating in Vans AV Era 1.5s with a poron insole and an Era Pro insole and my feet are still hurting after two hours of skating. I really need something more comfortable. Please give me some recommendations.

For a European who has never been to Walmart...is Walmart really like this? Like place where blacks hang out and act all weird?

Just curious.

The Etnies Barci, which are basically Busenitz knockoffs.  They're cheaper than Busenitz's but are still really good.

Also, eS made some really good cupsole stuff.  Square 2s if you can find them are amazing.  The Rattray shoes were similar to the Barcis with the stitched cupsole.

Etnies Jameson 2s are a thin shoe with a really good sole, if you're into thinner shoes but want more support than vulc.

Do they still make the Herman 2?  That shoe was amazing.

Square 2s were vulc. I like my Fallen 76s.

Kostons - surprisingly a lot of board feel and protection out of the box

Your best bet is a performance cupsole. They have the support and protection of a cupsole but the boardfeel of a vulcanized sole. The Busenitz is a pretty solid shoe, same as the 76. Both are extremely comfortable and skate great. Also, not to be "That guy", but some of the newer DCs are pretty good too. The Landeaus, Coles, and Phasers have all been great. They are all simple and have the performance cupsole, so they skate extremely well. Nice to see DC making decent shoes again...

Dunks are easily the best non-pro model cupsole out. That goes for lows, mids, and highs.

Thanks for all the suggestions.  I would like to try on the Silas, Kalis' new shoe and some of the others if my local shop has them.  Has anyone skated in both the new Dunks and the Kostons?  Which one offers more cushion?

Now that I stopped skated vulc shoes I ended up picking up a pair of cole s and they have been super. I would also recommend these. The only problem is that you would have to get use to the toe cap.

I already had the Rick Howards and they feel so good(and I have bad ankles), the suede could be better but I don't mind a dot of shoe goo once a week. I'm about to get these:
