Question. How do the new koston 3's fit? True to size? slim? wide?
Sorry if this has been asked but I can't seem to find anywhere that it has.

True to size. Not as narrow as the Koston 2.

Like a fabric condom on your foot. I don't mean that in a good way. Of course, my ankles are a bit wider due to tendon scarring and never lace *any* shoe all the way up. My feet felt like they were in a flyknit gimp suit and I had a clostrophobia-induced panic attack. To each their own.


Thanks.... my ankles are shit and my feet have permanent swelling... so i can not wear slip on shoes or shoes with a sock like connected tongue as my foot will not get into them. The Koston 2 would not go on my foot either, as it had that V shape to the lace area and would not open wide enough. The 3's probably will not fit either, but I was just wondering as that sock thing would probably do me some good if it will get over my foot. I guess it just depends how much it stretches... I sure don't want to feel like Jeremy Rogers wearing standard size condom while taking care of business.

Hey, did you end up buying them or just trying them on?

I bought them for the ankle support but both pairs I got had fucked up stitching and now the Nike site (gasp!) sold out in my size. Beyond the sock-hype, they don't really seem any better than a well-fitting cupsole.

If you have fucked ankles, check out the Ishod Dunk. It holds onto the foot well and can stretch *really* wide and still feel snug. True to size. They feel shitty for the first time but once they break in... 8)

Does the blue pair exist? Can you actually buy those?

I don't know if they currently exist, but you can put a toe cap on the ID blazers.

Are the ID blazers equivalent to the blazer SEs? Like same insoles, structured toe piece (or whatever you call it... not like the GTs). Do they have tongue straps? It's almost worth it...

Nope. Not even close. It looks like a Blazer and is called a Blazer and that's about as far as comparisons to the skate ones go.

Nike should have re-released the Lunar Gato with this pack, why force the soccer gimmick on a boat inspired shoe if you already have a soccer shoe for your skate line.

I tried.

dear baravettski,
to give you positive feedback- i like the
name. back in the days skateshoe brands
dont gave a fuck about mass consumer market
they focus with product design, marketing and
sales completly on Skateboarders - and it
works well. Since the success from Nike
in the skateworld all "true" skateshoe company
try to go for the mainstream market too-
But you cant beat Nike in that Battle.
Because most skateshoe companys lost
the connection to the real need of a user of a Skateshoe
they go under...

I just want a simple classic functional
shoe.

And most companys have no image
or edges anymore - everything is the same
looking stuff.

Go for the niche- 100% active skateboarders!
stand your ground FTW Fuck the world is the right attitude.


Thanks! Starting a separate thread in a bit to post on progress and what not.

Yes, make simple good looking and comfortable shoes that skate good out of the box. Look at the classics like the Dunk and the Half Cab and try to see why these shoes have stood the test of time. What I want as a consumer is just a good looking shoe that I can put on and skate for hours without thinking about or worrying about my shoes.

I really don't want to reopen that can of worms, but that pizza shoe looks hideous. They look like oozing wounds from a distance, almost leper territory. That New York Knicks Bruin looks sweet, only good release on this page.

Also, I know my opinion on this doesn't matter at all, but I "get" Nike SB less and less by the day. Do all of those colorways actually sell? Does anyone really get hyped on the flimsy, unappealing, low canvas vulc shoes with nothing but a giant-sized Swoosh on them for detail? It's not like the price is good either. Nike has a lot of great designs, but when I look in this thread, 75% of the stuff is not noteworthy in my eyes.
