Post the shoes you're wearing.

[Sk.A.T.A.N]

Why? Why would you want to do it?

He's hyped on his new shoes and wantes to take a nice shot of them, whats wrong or wack about that?

[bbk]

Why is it wrong to carry your board by the truck?

Sneaker/steetwear culture is is stupid as fuck.
Asking your friend to take "a cool pic" of your "fresh kicks" is just lame, but like I said, that's just my opinion.

[cricketclub]

I took the picture myself actually by some flowers in my front yard. Glad you enjoyed the photo! I don’t plan on skating these but they would skate great.

same reason it’s wrong to wear sunglasses on the back of your head .. it looks really fucking dumb

[Dwyck]

Having a picture like that taken of your brand new *fire emoji* sneakers has got to be one of the lamest things you can do, but that's just my opinion, so who cares...

Take a look at the title of the thread you're posting in buddy

Picked up the new AVE shoe today.

I keep debating on pulling the trigger on these. Is yours doing that weird crease thing? Also thoughts on them? Worth it etc?

[close]

Yeah. It’s like reinforcement meshed on the upper area.

I think they are worth it, I haven’t skated them yet but with the seamless construction and with the $100 price tag that it will last a while too.[\b]

[close]

So you’re saying that $100 price tag is a durability feature..? Like an ollie pad or triple stitched toe cap?

So far, these are some of the best shoes I have skated in and I am already planning on getting at least one more pair. I was hoping a Vans $25 off coupon would land in my lap, but to no avail. I'd love to have a black pair and a white pair of these ready to roll at all times.

Same. I kept trying to find a Labor Day sale with them but found nothing. Then I asked around if anyone knew anyone at a vans store. Found a friend of friend that does but their code or whatever they use they used on their kids back to school clothes so I’m waiting til they get another friends and family code.

Just got some ck1s for super cheap on ebay, got a pair of the skytop 3s from tgm and a pair of the skytop 1s for $29.99 at nordstrom online of all places, cant wait to skate the skytops, been wanting to check them out for years but not pay $100 plus for them.

1/2 size up, imo

Got some Crockett's off eBay for super cheap, had a few skates and they feel great but I'm not sure how well they'll hold up. Probably just dab a little glue on the areas getting the most wear and go from there.



The NB 617's held up shockingly well having been skated over a month; no significant wear albeit a tiny bit of glue on the mesh area, one lace snapped and they still feel pretty good, no floppiness etc and could easily skate them for another month or more but it's always nice to have a new pair to skate

I’m impressed you survived passing through that airplane engine

[oyolar]

Anyone had the Spanky G6 that I missed?  If so, thoughts on feel, size, etc. I might have ruined the Sheffield XLKs I’ve been skating going through a rain storm and I have a pair of Owen VLKs but am looking into other stuff. I’m interested in the new AVEs but am a little wary on dropping $100 these past few months.

[Shuh]

Anyone here has any experience will air force 2 sbs? I held the supreme version once sole looks thicker compared to og dunks

I tried on a pair at a local shop a couple months ago.
All I remember is them being way too slim for my tastes. But I prefer big fat shoes.

Super glue the seams and those Crockett’s last forever

havent skated them yet, but they feel like slimmer Reynolds (or a improved Laced). digging them.

Super soft suede upper that's super easy to break in. It doesn't have the most structure, but with a slim upper like that, that's kind of the point. The g6 foam makes the shoe decently cushy on the bottom too, but it still breaks in pretty quick. I randomly hiked 8 miles in them and my feet were just fine surprisingly.

My good friend only skates vulcs and after trying the spanky its the only shoe he skates.

TLDR: They hella comfy, break in easy, and the upper is super soft

[oyolar]

Cool - thanks fellas!  TTS?

[Hercules Rockefeller]

Cool - thanks fellas!  TTS?

yep, but i`ve got wide feet and a high arch, so "regular" feet might be doing fine going half a size down.

[sus]

Cool - thanks fellas!  TTS?

I'd say TTS

Holy shit i can't believe Manolo still owns these.
i feel like a lot of people don't own any eS's from this period (8-10 years ago), and i'm surprised to see you still rock them.
These were the ellipses right? These shits were kinda funky but i snagged a pair or two at the time just to chill in.

[ThugWaffle]

How do the 2013 lunar gato skate? I have a pair i never bothered to skate and im afraid the time is now.

Better than the new one. I had multiple pairs of the older ones.

[birdplops]

Not many colourways and styles are doing it for me at the moment. Though these 3st.004s look like puke these were 40% off.

One skate in and I'm in love. I'm not convinced about their longevity and am scared to heelflip for fear of the boost disintegrating, but they feel great and skate fantastically.
