1/2 inch free space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe while standing is about right. I would never recommend less than 1/2” free space. Sometimes you can’t quite hit that and have to choose bigger or smaller. In those cases I just pick a different model or even colorway of the same model.

Don’t wait for all this to become standardized because sizing will ALWAYS be wonky and bc everyone has a different shaped not everyone will make sizing up or down decisions the same in respect to different models.

It's gonna be amazing with what adidas is doing right now. Their 4D thing is the future. You go in the store, they do a scan of your foot and make the actual shoes then and there. The perfect fitting shoe. I know it will be just runners first but I would imagine it trickling down to skate shoes.

Meanwhile Nike is making adapt BB auto lacing shoes....

Fuck my feet. They’re both on the wider side, with my left even more so. I gravitate toward shoes with higher foxing tape because my left arch “pours over” the standard sidewalls and results in pain within minutes of walking.

As if that’s not bad enough, my right is longer than the left.

When I get shoes I almost HAVE to get half a size too big because otherwise my left arch will kill or my two smallest right toes will press against the side.

Came across these at a Nordstrom Rack today for $30 and couldn't pass them up. I'm pretty stoked because I've been wanting to get this colorway for a minute anyway, so the steep discount was a bonus.

How do those feel compare to other Pro Classics? I'm skating Old Skool Pros now and I kinda want some of that ankle support, but when I see people skating these in the wild they almost look really thick?

Insole, general fit, all that is the same as any other pair of Sk8 Hi Pro's, however this particular colorway, with the corduroy and all actually looks and feels a bit thinner around the ankle, than just your general black/white Sk8 Hi Pro. Could just be my eyes playing tricks on me. That being said, Sk8 Hi Pro's are definitely a bit chunkier than all the other Pro Classics but they do last a good amount of time, or at least they have when I've skated them in the past.

AV3s. One of the best shoes I've skated. They still have the TNTII insoles I swapped into them. I remember the stock insoles being super thin and flimsy.

I stored this pair before I could destroy them, but after digging them up I'm tempted to finish them off. They still have quite a bit of life left.

Hell yeah FSRMY in the building!!!. I'm so surprised how good the show is and how small their subscription is. The editor is the real MPV tho

I was gonna open a chillers shoe thread on here but not sure how it would be received. In the 90's it was so important to have your chilling shoes for after skating. Shit sometimes I would bring them with me to the spot. I'll never forget Kalis rocking up to my local skate park with JT on a Toy Machine tour and him taking off his chilling shoes (AM1) and putting his skate shoes on.

wow, huf basically totally copied this shoe with the choices, huh? like to the details, minus logos of course.

these look a bit puffier though, which would have been made the choices a little bit better for me.

Now that you mention it, yeah, there a lot of design similarities with the Choices (which I've also skated). Definitely puffier and stiffer heel support on the AV3s. They really lock your foot into place and hold their shape, but they don't sacrifice any flex where you want it.

Those are the Emerica Reynolds G6 in white. Awesome shoes! These look a lot whiter than my white pair though.
