Ahah I knew this one would pop here at some point. It was built as a casual shoe, I did try to make it a bit skate friendly, but not sure on the skate ability since it wasn't tested or built as a skate shoe.
The outsole is a bit too wide on the forefoot which might make it a bit weird to ollie/flick, but I haven't really tried.

Nice work. I have some copa mundials for indoor soccer. If I blow those out, I'll look for these.

Is there a specific name shoe designers use for the "soccer style" stitching in the toe area, or any similar kind of stitching that creates a pattern of depth in the material like on the Jordan 12 or Nike Air Total Max Uptempo (Reggie Millers)?

ive been trying to find a pair of these to skate in... were they only sold in Europe? @skatan

Anyone ever skate the regular Jack Purcells? I've been wanting them ever since they discontinued the mid.

They made my feet cry.
Then again… I’m an old, so make of that what you will.

I wanna play you in a game of SKATE for the right to continue talking shit on me.  You think you got me?

Sick and tired of the Vans logo? We stretched that shit out.





I’m not letting my YouTube algorithm anywhere near that video.

Damn. So probably just like the regular chucks I skated. Cons just needs to bring back the Purcell already.

Anyone skate the Adidas Centennial or Top Ten?

I tried the forum 84 ADVs and didn't like the lack of flexibility/boardfeel

I love superstars/fastbreaks tho

Dunks less so, they're a little less flexible/grippy up front than I'd like

Hey man, sorry I didn't see your reply (you tagged the wrong account lol).

I think there's a few sneaker boutiques stocking them in the USA. Found these two for example:
https://www.blendsus.com/products/adidas-predator-mundial-black-white
https://packershoes.com/products/predator-mundial

Someone gave me those Puma Suede Butter Goods shoes with the flame on the side lol. I thought I'd rip the flame off and skate em but after feeling them and trying them on they felt squishy and gross so flipped them the next day.

Anyone skated the Puma Sambas? Passed up a pair at Ross last weekend and it’s kinda been killing me ever since.
For someone w.no signature ur awfully hostile, & that is why I do this
