Just got these two in a recent trip to Manchester (after watching the whole thing together Kitsch is definitely best company video of 2019 in my list)

Vans chino glide pro, very nice. The fit is great and they are very comfortable. The interior shoelace belt is a smart idea. Looking forward to skating in them soon!

That’s a damn fine deal. I grabbed at 40% because I didn’t want them to go back to full price

Some Bones Racing Reds that were in a damaged package for $25. Big Balls are close to to $35 and I've had a bad experience with Swiss; mid-tier bearings are my go to from now on.

Best believe I bought some titanium indy 149's. Warehouseskateboards (Not skatewarehouse), let's you buy shit with Sezzle, which is no interest financing over 4 payments. It may not be smart, but it sure has helped me get gear at times. Plus there is a 10% off coupon online so shipping prices were negated.

I have 5.2 venture ti they are 308g, i have seen the 5.8 venture ti listed at like 315-320g. I also have the 5.6 prods ti but I set them up already before weighing lol! So I’m sure they are like 310-315g! they feel great by the way just cruised on em and popped some fat ollies down the street. I can’t wait to bash them against some rails when my 5.2 are donezo but it’ll be a goooood while before that. Most likely summer! Titaniums are the shit bois, I rode my indy tits for like 18 months or something stupid long like that - coping dancing and learning flat bars long ago. But I’m a venture boi now, you won’t be disappointed is what I’m mumbling about

I just got a pair of Lakai Atlantic's in brown/gum. I wanted to try them, this color was pretty much sold out everywhere since they're older. I got them on sale at Tactics for $39-something. Stoked. Along with them I got a Thunder hat, bones bearing cleaner thing, and bones bearing lube. Yay.

Due the Chilean F4 shortage we can be picky at all and we have to get pretty much whatever we can find.
Just got some conical full 53mm 99. Sounds almost perfect, they're black but I'll make it work. In the meantime I'll skate shit out of the tablets I have.

Shhhhhh, don't say it out loud.
But no, black wheels don't look that bad like red ones.

Red wheels on your board are the mid-life crisis equivalent of getting a Porsche.

I ordered the flower deck for my first ever wall hanger. That's been one of my favorite photos from Jerry and it's also a Reynolds board, so I couldn't pass it down

Got some dickies duck carpenter jeans for work at Walmart. Skated them after work had a pretty good fall and they didn’t tear. Pretty stoked. Will get another pair for sure. Washing now to see if they shrink. I usually just wear normal dickies 874 to work and outside of work. So I’m not sure how the jean material is with washing drying shrinking etc

Got the Dickson pros yesterday. Put some white laces in them and they look fucking good! Haven’t got to skate them yet but damn they was comfortable doing errands with my girlfriend. Quality seems great. The sole feels different to the touch. Idk how to explain it. Like denser? In a good way. It feels durable. Insole feels good. They feel a little more padded/cushioned than the Americanas.

post a pic of the dicksons. That sounds good. Can’t tell that about the padding from online pics.

I’ll take some pics when I get home. I may not be explains it well. the side walls feel like there’s a little padding instead of just suede. But I’ll take some pics tonight.
They may be on imgur. I don’t know how to post actual photos. Just the imgur links.

For anyone interested in the Dickson pro. Not the best photos so if you guys want another view ,a specific part of the shoe or anything just let me know. I tried to show the padding on the side. It’s not a lot but it feels more than just of suede on the side of the foot like some other shoes. Just a slight bit of padding on the side. Kind of like on the side to the state Albany’s I have. Just a little something something on the side. The Achilles ankle pad feels great. The shoes feels secure on my feet. Can’t wait to skate them.

nice, looks good, like a little more structure because that suede side panel is backed with a liner material and padding between. They fit similarly to the americana? but those are cup but you said pretty thin? Want to try an emerica cupsole
