Hey good people, what are the experiences of the Crockett 2 and the Berle...they seem pretty similar, but read/saw a couple of reviews that said the Berle was slippy.
Currently skating Crockett 2s, skated 6 or 7 pairs before, if not more.
They're as skatable out of the box as it gets. They're perfect after 2 sessions for me, and I can skate a pair for about 2,5 months (skating 2 to 3 times a week, doing lots of tricks that include ollies) if I put a bit of Shoe Goo on the ollie hole I get after 1/1,5 month.
They're my favourite current shoe. I usually get black with white sole (classic) or plain white ones, I just wish there were more great colourways.
Never skated Berles, I think they look bad.
I read really good things about Rowans on here but didn't like the pair I got, they felt too bulky for my liking and I had trouble with the thickness of the sole, it made flip tricks harder.
TLDR: Get Crockett 2s.
