Blanks are not the same quality as most "pro" boards.

sleeeping · « **Reply #70 on:** June 07, 2006, 08:05:41 PM »

Best vulcanized shoe ive skated, the fit is really good and the insole is the same one they use in the syndicate vans, its really squishy and saves my feet.
if you want a thin she theyre really good.

SLANGIN_ROCKS · « **Reply #71 on:** June 07, 2006, 08:09:44 PM »

They take very little time to break in as well. The insole is definitely a lifesaver.

I tried on a pair yesterday, and they felt really nice. I got some telfords instead.

I've got a pair of the square ones now and they were a nice little surprise. I like them a lot

If you're skating almost everyday it doesnt matter if they're vulk or not, theyre lasting me a month at the max.
3 weeks is average for me for a pair of shoes.
when the sole is smooth and thin or the side blows out its time for a new pair.

You're skating a creatue, ventures, 65 mm wheels, and DGK/RBK shoes?
thats so random yet so bad ass at the same time.

rhp · « **Reply #86 on:** June 13, 2006, 06:51:59 AM »

just got some manchesters
they didnt have popwar so i opted for toy machine, just trying it out, the shape is a little bit more ovaly on the sides but so far so good.

SLANGIN_ROCKS · « **Reply #87 on:** June 13, 2006, 02:04:51 PM »
