The sole is thinner in the new Rowley shoe though, with only the thin fixed insole, but that might appeal to some people as well, but might be a pain to others.[close]I usually prefer the ultracush insoles but I’ll still give the new ones a try. I think the Rowley Pro is one of the best looking shoes ever.[close]https://www.vans.com/shop/mens-shoes-skate/rowley-rapidweld-pro-navy-white#hero=4This version is a waffle cup with ultracush according to the site. Does it feel thin? I have a pair of the crockett highs and I love the feeling of the sole. wondering if we have the same metric for what feels thin.

Thanks![close]Haha, each to their own! Glad you like the, glad some people like skating in them.Just started skating a pair of those green Half Cab Pros that came out last spring I think, loving this colourway. I wish Vans made something similar but with more beige bits, like that old Carroll pro shoe inspired by Airwalk Enigmas, with a white sole though. I can't wear black soles.

I bought some half cab pros. What aftermarket insoles do you all switch out the pop Cush for?
Anyone skated a pair of the Vans Pro wrapped?They have the extra bit of rubber wrapped round the whole upper of the shoe, not as much as the 112 or other versions with the full toe cap but definitely a bit more than the usual versions, which I just saw on vans.com.au but seem like they have been out everywhere else for a month or so.I found the Uprise instagram post with pics here, seems they are in old skool and authentic:https://www.instagram.com/p/CHRPFL3pJAu/

Tried them in Berle's, Kwalks, Old Schools and Sk8 Hi's and all were a great fit.

Nothing I do deserves more than an iphone camera.

I have some old SB Blazer lunarlon insoles and tried those in my Half Cabs and it felt like a completely different shoe but I'm interested to try some FP elite insoles. It's hard to pull the trigger on an expensive product that backs a MAGA fucktard like Paul Hart though.
