pulled these out while cleaning an closet out of my parents house



Not too late to throw them back in.

Lol I was thinking that also I’m looking for extra grip laying around. Thank u

Sandpaper or griptape should work fine. I had the HUF x Spitfire Ramondettas which had the Spitfire logo on the side like those Vans have the Indy logo. Came off nicely with some sandpaper and elbow grease. Result was very nice IMO.

Anyone know how to remove the gold foil lettering off suede - specifically the Alexis on her one stars.  It drives me crazy being able to perfectly see that when I look down

I just started going at it with some small piece of mob and it’s starting to come off nicely! I like the shoes so much more now

First pair of Janoski's in a very long time, never had a pair of the slips until now, though.  They had the same thicker SB insole as a pair of Decon Dunks I got about a month ago, so I ditched those for a thinner insole as I did with the dunks and they fit great.

Ok

More or less cush than vans slip on pro?

Oh less cush for sure, Vans pro insoles (in my opinion) will always be the cushiest stock insoles besides the old lunarlon and the insoles in some State shoes. At a glance, the insole is standard Zoom Air, but what I'm getting at, is that there is a noticeable change in thickness in where the anterior of your foot sits in the shoe. Mid typing this I figured an image would be helpful:



Used a book to keep them flat for comparison. Top is an insole from the Orange Label Dunk Mids, which I would consider to be the normal thickness I've noticed from the zoom air insoles. Bottom is what was included with the Janoskis, which at least to me, appear to have an increased thickness. Now I know that the insole from the mids has been worn, but I took them out right when I got the shoes and I don't remember them to be as thick as the Janoski insole at all. In fact, the insole I mentioned I took out of the Decon Dunks in my initial post has the same increased thickness, and upon putting those in the Mids, changed the fit of the Mids as a whole, compared to the insoles they came with.

Sorry for the lengthy response but sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy when I notice something like this, so I was trying to lay out my thoughts to myself as well haha.

tldr; Janoski insole looked thicker, so I replaced them with a thinner insole and they now fit better, at least on my feet.

Ok

This is a really thoughtful response. If I understand correctly: vans have more cushion than any slip on Janoski. Nike has changed the thickness of their insoles, whimsically.
I think these types of observations are important. Certainly why I check this forum. Information is difficult to find on skate products. Thanks

What’s the sizing like on the 3ST.003’s? I fit 10 in dunks which usually fits me in most shoes but I’ve gone up to 10.5 in the NB533v2 and Vans Ultrarange pro, and have gone down to 9.5 in the City Cups

Also, how does that mesh collar wear down in the heelflip area?

True to size is what I've heard. I tested half size bigger and those were definitely too big for me. Sadly the shop didn't have my size so I had to buy something else. 😐

I don't have any experience on the shoes you listed though.

Im 10,5 in dunks and 10 in citycups as well as all 3st models. The mesh parts were not a problem for me, they lasted as long as the rest of the shoe.

You gotta measure your foot with Adidas and find out what size they make for your foot length: since they aren't consistent between half sizes, our advice won't help if you wear a different size than us (Nike and Adidas' size 8 is the same length, but Adidas' 8.5 is longer than Nike's 8.5). Hope this helps.

Anyone here try the providers? Debating on giving them a try the insole feels nice. But may just do wino slips.

Just hoping for some first hand input
