Post the shoes you're wearing.

I hate how resellers made it hard to get dunks, so I’m doing my part with these ones

[moonordie]

Damn, those look good

[Ok]

After the half cab this is the best skate shoe ever made. Don’t @ me, the history speaks for itself.

And I will not go back n forth with you

how does the feel compared to non-QS dunks with the sb tooling? I've always wanted to skate an og pair of sb dunks before they changed the tooling, slimmed down the tongue, and got rid of the EVA in the midsole in the forefoot

Grabbed myself some red Atlantics.
I just have to skate Lakais when ever I set up a Crail board.
It just feels right.

How are Lakais these days? I haven’t had a pair in forever.

These feel mostly fine, a little snug, but breaking in and loosening up while skating. They’re not overly bulky or anything. Each dunk seems to fit slightly different to me. The worst ones are the two orange label holdover colorways. They just feel half a size small. The highs seem a little more consistent in sizing and feeling

I love the Atlantic. On my 4th pair now. I really like that XLK sole from Lakai and they hold up fine for me.

Skating the Mod Cup right now and its pretty damn good. I always recommend an insole upgrade, but other than that the shoes skate great.

You live in a skateshop or your local looks like a room? 🤔

any thoughts on the old school pros? saw some bad reviews but wasn't sure if they've been updated

The old skools are just a simple Vans vulc shoe. The pro classics all got updated and the naming convention has changed. so in this case, if you want the skate model, it would be listed as the Vans Skate Old Skool (https://shredzshop.com/blogs/news/new-vans-skate-classics-shoes-2021)

If I were to skate a Vans vulc shoe, my preferences would be either the half cabs or Rowan's pro model. Those would hold up better and honestly I think they look better than old skools

I liked my Skate Old Skools. Currently breaking in a second pair.


I have a pair of Rowans I've been trying to get through but the back collar is seriously destroying my achilles. I skated them for a couple hours yesterday and was literally limping by the end of the session. Also idk if the eyelets sit weird or I just flick weird but this week alone I've already blown two laces, and both of them were from the TOP of the shoe where I tie them. Very weird and frustrating problem. I dunno if they changed the Rowans cuz I had a pair when they initially launched and quite liked them, but these new ones might be unskateable to me.

The Atlantics are nice.  What crail shape did you set up?  (And what trucks is it on?)

Been toying with the idea of going back to a 8.25 for a minute.
So I set up this Girl Griffin Gass. It’s 8.25 but tapers down to 8 at the tail. Pretty interesting shape. It’s pretty mellow compared to the DLX #1 stamped boards I prefer.

Same stuff as last one
Venture Throws
Sml wheels
Quantum Atoms
Jessup ultra
Bender Allen
We’ll see how she flips…

Very interesting

What catalog number is the shape?

It pair well with the ventures?

[close]

GO27 shape
Seems ok with the Ventures, I’ll give it a go in a few days.

How has Crail wood been lately?  Haven't skated any in 12 years after breaking 2 boards in 2 weeks and not being a big board breaker.  Love some of their shapes.

I’ve only set up a couple within the last year or so. I haven’t had any issues other than them being a little to flat for my liking. I also probably not the guy to ask. I just skate ledges, flat and little quarter pipes….like twice a week..so any board lasts me a while.

[Jim and Dan]

Did these loosen up at all after you wore/skated them for a bit?

[Fartknocker415]

Yeah the fit is feeling better the more I wear/skate the 808. Today had my second session 2 hrs and they felt better and less tight than the first session (3 hrs) for sure. Honestly I’m kinda amazed I’m skating really good (for my standards) in them and have unlocked a few old tricks that got away. I’m very hyped.

[jsettle]

First pair of NB skate shoes after all these years. Comfiest skate shoe I've put on in my 22 yrs of skating.

[Coastal Fever]

Sale scores from the past couple days.  Not sure which to skate and which to keep as chillers;
