[roba]

Probably the only review we're going to get with these

rad rat looking better than ever damn

Question: if a company made REALLY WIDE skate shoes (designed for skateboarding) how many here would buy them?
Thinking of something shaped like this Be Lenka:

(These exist but they cost $150 and the sole is hella thin)
Would you want suede, canvas, or other vegan material?
4 eyelet or 6 eyelet?
Cupsole or vulcanized?
Other feature?
How cheap would they have to be? (150 is too high for me. Might buy at 90. Would definitely buy 2 at 75)

i directly know at least 50 people that would buy

personally, i would basically want a high top es accel og with toes like the pic you posted. oh and add on that shoe lace cover that andy anderson put on his new shoes. that would be the ultimate skate shoe

Been riding some Adidas Noras and damn, they must have measured my feet when I was sleeping, it is the perfect shape for my foot. A bit more chunky in the front than what I am used too due to the multiple overlapping layers of material but so far they're holding up great as well.

This dude is skating the Xero Kelso shoes

This dude is skating the Xero Kelso shoes 

and has for some time. One of his IG posts is 100 kick flips, so I guess they are decent for general skating.

I would rather stop skating than skate those

Panel-wise they look better than most skate shoes.

The toe box is really wide. Only toe box that felt wider to me was the NB# 272.

The Aurelien Cupsole feels very thin and the shoe is also more on the wider side in the midfoot and around the ankles. Shoe feels light in Hand and light on foot although not as supportive as a Joslin for example. I try these for a few days at home, otherwise I will return them. There is a Michelin Aurelien out now but I can't speak about those. But something like a Joslin with a slightly thinner Michelin outsole could be really nice.

+1 to this. Not Forum wide but good shoe for wide footers out there.

Too bad i rolled the shit out of my ankle in those so not really feeling them anymore.

The side E logo is as offensive as the Cariuma one imo. It's just plain ugly and I'd never touch this shoe because of it.
