Got them for nostalgia's sake.





They are awful.

Black Friday pick up for $57, flat.

[close]

are these worth the normal price tag? I'm about to give in

I don't intend to skate in them anytime soon. I got them since they had my size available and would be my first project BA pair.

I say if the shoe is -$15-$20 off retail ($95 for the non-premium ones) I say give it a go. Probably could find them cheap from online black friday sales.

saw these while doing a lil shopping myself today. id defintely recommend them as shoes to walk around in & whatnot. I mean they skate good but they're so comfortable & supportive its almost like they have more value as a long-term walking/running shoe than as a skate shoe that'll just end up getting thrashed after a while.

Just started skating what's left of my Tim Tim's and they're do good. But I've been offered 2 pairs of Huf Choices for cheap, anyone skated them and how were they?

All Huf shoes are incredibly good. I'm just about done skating the Peppers and they are one of the best shoes I've ever had.

Choices are a good shoe for the price.  They're very similar shape to Old Skools.  They skate great, but the outsoles get slippery faster than they should

Been rocking the NyJAH's these last couple of weeks. I really like the ghoststitching and the cupsole. The only thing im not really stoked on is the fact it says Nyjah and has these red/yellow/green colors on the tongue, but the shoe feels amazing. Going to skate them in a couple of days, and im really stoked on the overall look of the shoe.

For a second I thought those were Lakai Jericho's. Good shoe, horrible soles.

Agreed it's a great shoe. Sick collection you've got there, we have similar footwear taste.

I recommend these shoes. They run small so go half size up.

I've been wearing the shit out of the black ones for 3 years and the sole is still good,didn't skated a lot cause of the heel being higher than the front but they are super grippy, light and comfortable.

Have a pair as well. Great shoes for walking around in and doing whatever. Mine kind of flattened out after some heavy use.

These are the best thing I've ever put my feet in. Was on my feet for 10 hours as part of a job and was still able to skate after.
The sole feels like it gives your feet a massage.

I have this same exact pair, in that colorway too. Really sick shoe, comfy as hell, it just needed a little bit more of a breaking in time, I have wide feet and those felt really snug. But after a while, they rule.
