Favorite Shoe of 2022

[lamfordie]

For me it will have to be the eS Silo Sc. It was a really good cupsole shoe that was a lil bulky but not too much. Skated really well and the sole lasted a lot longer than I expected. A close 2nd would be the Emerica Gamma.

440. went through about 5 pairs trying some other ones in between. keeps me coming back.

[Puddy Smally]

DC x Bronze 56k Clocker 2’s.

Single handedly reignited my love for the puffy.

switched from a life of Vans to trying NB 440s at the beginning of the year and now i have a stockpile of them. so NB440s

[YeoWhattup]

Adidas forum mid and specifically the Jake Darwin 440 high

[In A Jar]

I third the 440.  Great basic cupsole with crazy good grip and board feel. 

[vndrewlee]

Nike SB Blazer Mid

durable and reliable

[big_kev_215]

Enjoyed the few pairs of Last Resort canvas highs I skated this year (VM001 and VM003s).  The canvas seem to fit/feel better for me than the suede ones.

[dstrytruitt]

Nora or Blazer mid

1010....i really cant think of another shoe that even comes close to impact protection and quality.

[theloniousmonk]

1010 to start the year, but then I hurt a bone in my foot on the outer edge and these are unwearable. Great shoe though, I had a pair that I skated and then used them for long walks all summer.
Now it’s blazer mids and ksl g6 because they don’t put pressure on my fucked up foot bone

440

[Urtripping]

Vans skate authentic. I think that shoe got the best treatment with the new vans "skate" line, although I haven't tried the new half cab

[oyolar]

I'm thinking I need to try the NB# 440s even though I hate NB but they look so good and everyone saying they like them is hard to ignore. But I love the Wino G6 slip cups.

all this right here. 440’s until they stop making them. Lmao

[Esquivel]

The 440s have been good to me.

[Atiba Applebum]

Colorway:
Mike gigliotti half cab
Phillies dunk

New Model
BRSB (Cortez) - so damn comfy!

[Xyenide]

Last Resorts

Bruin

[wheelchair skitch]

nike brsb, been skating since them they came out and they skate so well. Though being very sporty looking, they are durable, never go floppy and have amazing flick, can sustain a 4 stair drop without killing my old ankles. If the colorways improve I'll be buying more of these things.

dud of the year - even though it came out before 2022, the revamped gt blazer pro. The foxing is too high and the shoe is just not as tight and stiff as the predecessor. I had to grab a few pairs online before they went fully extinct.

[Orangepulp1000]

Was skating the og half cabs for half the yr but then got a pair of 1010’s and my feet are thanking me.

[moonordie]

Were the Lakai Carroll's from 2022? I love that shoe, is perfect for me.
