Stoked on what I got though!- FA: 2x 8.5 shape #2 & 2x Mob- 3x KSL G6- 4x Marana- 1x AH beanie from a local shopIn fairness, I have recently dropped off 4 boards (old and new), 3 shoes (old and new), and some skate clothes to a local skatepark after seeing @tom ? do similarly! I have other shoes I'm trying to sell also to balance it back out[close]How are the Maranas working out for you? I see some guys swear by them.My first pair of skate shoes coming back on the board is Nike Chron2 vulcs, just cause price point and vulcs being the more standard shoe nowadays. Back almost 22 years ago I hassled my mom for a pair of relatively puffy Osiris cups.Put in an order for 2 pairs of Maranas on singles day, but had to go half size up on them. So still waiting for returns to come through.[close]Marana and Joslin need 0.5 up size for nearly everyone. That last runs a bit small but in the right size they feel solid!They're my favorite shoes! Stiff at first and feel fairly snug but walking around and minimal cruising breaks them in quickly enough. I have skated at least 10 pairs by now.Super durable - minimum 2-3 months of solid skating. Soles are hard to wear out, flick is reliable, hidden lace loops (many don't realize they have them), and they are well padded without feeling claustrophobic. Board feel is great for a cupsole but not as much as many vulcs. Especially once they start to break in but they feel stable even with that slight loss of board feel.

Now I’m looking even more forward to get them That was a real solid review. Do you get the OGs or the Michelins? Some say the difference in sole durability is a lot.

Embracing it, plus I'm an actual Dad.
