2nd pair of DC Kalis S after my NB 913 blew out. Flick could be better but the pill pattern sole has amazing durability. Cushioning is great too, would be my go to cupsole of choice if they could update the shoe with more lace loops.

Those DC soles are probably the best I have ever had. Last forever.
Are you fortifying the lace loops?

@lemonchicken91 how do those Adidas measure up? Are they super thin under the forefoot like most Adidas? I’m thinking of trying either a pair of the Tyshawns or 3st004.

I've been skating a pair of Tyshawn's off and on for a while now and they are solid protection under all parts of the foot. I definitely wouldn't say they’re thin under the forefoot. Definitely recommend them. Forum 84 adv is also a good choice from adidas.

Definitely, 1 session in and I applied shoe goo to the lace loops. The flick area is gradually breaking in, had my best flatland session in months. FS flips were on point and even landed a heelflip, which I can never do.

The pill pattern sole is really outstanding in terms of grip and durability. The honey comb sole was definitely a step down but they usually reserve those for the vulc versions.

Had a couple pairs of tyshawns and the 3st.004 once. There is substantially more sole on the tyshawns, forefoot is well protected and it may take time to get some boardfeel (at least on leather ones, they break in slower than suede). Tyshawns are a really protective shoe i really liked them.

3st.004 have that great feeling heel due to the boost material but there is not much between your forefoot and the ground.....if they were a little thicker around the forefoot they would be one of my favourite shoes!

Hope that helps

Just picked these up for a bargain from FB marktetplace, only had one quick skate in them so far but i'm willing to say these are the best version of the Busenitz so far IMO.

Sheffield XLK, I like the way the medial side of this shoe fits on my high-ish arches. it's a good thin cupsole if you can find it on sale. Sheffield and Manchester just fit really well, at least on my feet.

I also had these in that colorway. They were excellent. The usual Sheffield are a bit floppy for my weak ankles but everything with that XLK stuff is great.

Not been excited for a pair of Lakais in a while but I managed to snap up a pair of the Fremont XLK. Hopefully it hits the sweet spot of grip and cushion.

Adidas forum 84 adv

Was debating getting these for a long time. One session in and they feel amazing. Super good support and protection, but still feels like a solid amount of board feel. Flick is great too so far. Definitely hoping adidas keep these in the line up because they definitely seem like they could become a favorite

Just starting to skate these old 2012 Jordans. So far they feel good.

I almost tried to get the Jordan drop yesterday. I really want some mids. I can’t get sucked into that shit though.

Yea I probably will never fight for shoes, it's just ridiculous haha

I don't know how long these will still be up on the Nike site but just for now there are still Air Jordan 1 Mids in white black red in mens sizes 10.5 - 12

Strangely, I have never posted in this thread... NB212s. Prob my favorite shoe and always manage to find old color ways for a decent price. Particularly like these rubber toe caps... not everyone's cuppa tea I know.

Globe Surplus Sammy Montano. After reading some good comments here I found them half price so I couldn't pass.

They feel really well made and heavy compared the last pairs of Vans I skated.

Lows were my favorite looking shoes ever. Bought a pair then went back and bought out the rest from the shop in my size. They performed as well as any other vans, although I appreciated the rubber bumper. I have been on the lookout for some ever since.

Can anyone help me out with sizing on emerica gammas and crocket highs? Im 8.5 in NB# 440 lows. 8.5 in vans AVE pros (translucent sole or whatever shoes). 8.5 in GT blazers. 8 in CTAS and Purcell Mids.

You're an 8.5. All those shoes you described fit TTS as far as I know with the exception of Cons vulcs which are typically a half size down for everybody. No one has posted about the Crocketts or the Gammas not being TTS so you should be good with going with your size.
