What skate shoes are the best for you?
« on: February 18, 2018, 03:16:35 AM »
Hi. I was skating all 8 years in normal shoes. I'm skating on street, skatepark and a small miniramp. My deck is 7,625" x 31,3". I'll buy skate shoes. What skate shoes are the best for you? What skate shoes should I buy? Don't mind a price.

Try a bunch on at your local skateshop. Buy the ones that are most comfortable.

Thats what we do if we skate 7.75 and up! He clearly skates a 7.625 x 31.3... so that means he should find some vans willy santos 2's
For someone w.no signature ur awfully hostile, & that is why I do this

Minus the inevitable fart sounds the insoles will absolutely make

i own at least 10 pairs and none of them made that fart sound. Maybe there is so glue sticking to the insole? I had that issue with a few dunks especially the Soulland collab.

DC 10
Nike 10
Vans 10 (certain models and with the right socks)

Nothing else fits my toes well enough (everything is too pointy for the madflikbrah)

+1 on the dunk glue sticking to insole thing. Annoys the piss out of me. Took me three pairs to figure it out, sadly.

It all depends on what kind of riding you do. If you do lots of flip tricks then you want shoes that you will be able to feel your board through. Your typical skate shoes work fine in that case and most of them will do as long as you didn’t get them from Walmart. Just regular flat-soled sneakers with very little arch support- and if they are suede or a thicker material

Could I ask you, guys?

I'm really new when it comes to playing online casinos and I don't have a lot of options, so I figured the best way to get information and advice is to post here on the site, as this forum and message board here seems to be one of the most legitimate I've ever seen so far regarding online casinos and online gambling. So I really want to start playing more online casino games as I really enjoy playing and I love playing games that focus on slots and slot gambling. Recently found this quality casinos in Canada, you can view them here https://qualitycasinos.cc, I would like to know what you think, Thanks in advance for any comments or response to my post here.

Happy New Year and all the best to you all here on the board and to other visitors to the site.

Let me preface this post with the fact that I am slightly inebriated, very uneducated and I havent read any papers or done any research at all, or read your post really.

But in the meantime, the Reynolds G6 cup is a bang count it.

Your typical skate shoes work fine in that case and most of them will do as long as you didn’t get them from Walmart. Just regular flat soled sneakers with very little arch support- and if they are suede or a thicker material it is better than canvas- since the grip tape (if you actually skate in skate shoes) rips right through non-durable material.I personally have been skating around in New Balance running shoes and before that, I had some Scotts, then some Avias https://bestoutdooritems.com/best-skateboarding-shoes/ which I’ve found are totally awesome for longboarding distances and just around town. Though you can’t feel the board as well as through skate shoes- they sure are comfy and the soles often are just as or more durable than skate shoes for foot-braking. If you do longboarding and specifically any kind of foot braking you never want to get the vulcanized shoes sold so often as the world’s best skate shoes- because those soles just eat right through and are the least durable and thick. Vans- though great BMX shoes that you can feel your foot petals through- in my mind still have a very little place in skateboarding, particularly with all the canvas on the uppers they use- whether you longboard or skateboard. Just saying. Yesterday I found a very interesting video on this topic on Youtube, I think someone can come in handy. I hope this helps with the choice.

Yes! I’m glad it’s not just me. Always happens in the A.V. Classic Highs and Era Pros for me.
