How old are you? 43
How many hours a week do you skate? 3-15. It's all over the place. Street and tranny.
Your favorite shoes to skate in? Old Skool Pros or Half-Cab Pros
How long do your shoes last you? Assuming no Vans QC failure, about two months before sole on ball of foot is toast.
Side Note: As a kid I owned one pair of shoes (usually Vans). Wore them to school, skating, and everywhere else, and I skated a LOT more then than I do now. As a adult, I only wear my skate shoes when actually skating. Despite getting far less use, my shoes wear out so much faster now than when I was kid. Why? Has QC gone that downhill? Is skating more abusive now than it used to be (e.g. moving feet around for flip tricks)? Etc.? Any other lifers noticed this, too?
