New Vans BMX wafflecup shoe. Wonder how they would skate. Has anyone skated the BMX line?
Yeah this reply late af, and it's not the exact model you're referencing but:
I did skate the Vans Larry Edgar bmx shoes because I was down on cash and in need of shoes real bad + this guy resold them to me without ever having worn them for like 1/4 the retail price.
Honestly, I can't say there was any major difference. They just felt like beefed up Old Skools, which I guess is what I was looking for -lasted a good amount of time (aside from one thing that I'll write below), and I do try (and fail) a lot of flip tricks, so I'm wearing them down with flicks a lot, too.
The good:
- Heel support felt better
- Basically the same as a skate Old Skool
- Added piece of material near the inner-ankle felt nice
The bad:
- the rubber cap fucking came loose after a few weeks, and I had to glue that shit back on. I have to use everything until it's unskateable, so having product failures like that sucks ass.
