Just got these and they feel amazing. I think the new vans hd ultra cush insole is better then their previous. Wish they made more colors of them all the time. Blew it on not buying the elijah ones. Can't find them anywhere in a ten.

I'm really hyped on this shoe.  Finally something besides dunks that can support my fat ass and still skate well.



Are they as wide as dunks? I can't skate shoes which are too narrow.

I like them a lot. They definitely have a lot of support and are really comfortable. I'm definitely backing them.

Probably a week and a half on the new reynolds. I came into some money and wanted to try something new. They fit well (half size down) and can take a hell of a beating but I wish I could feel the board better. The cushioning and premium suede or whatever are no joke though. Solid shoe

caved in and finally got the Project BA's. Gonna just wear em as a chill shoe for a while then ill probably skate them whenever my current shoes blow out. So far all I can say is that they're very comfortable and the sole feels pretty sturdy. stood ona board and it doesnt necessarily feel like a "thick" shoe, but its not thin either. somewhere in between the P-Rod 7's and the Reynolds if i had to make a comparison.

I wear a 10 in pretty much everything, and I got my Lucas' in 9.5. If you can't try them on, I'd suggest a 9.5

I found them true to size...I'm 11 in Busenitz Pro, ADV, Adi-ease, Puig, and Silas 2. 

But yeah, the Buz Vulc in 11 was cramped.  I wouldn't go down in Puig as I got some in 10.5 on super sale and they were too cramped in the toe box.

I thought the TNT 5's were going to live up to the hype but the ones I skated were fucking trash. The sole started going bald after a few hours of skating and I was down to my insole in like a week. The upper even looked weak and shit after the first skate session.

Number ones were mine, but I also never got to skate the Dr. Ts or the III slip on cupsoles.
Talk about a shoe that would probably sell well now too

Is the Blazer LR comparible to the OG Blazer in quality? I founds some for cheap but I don't know about this LR shit. Also how is the sizing on the Adi Ease? I found some in size 13 but I'm a 12.

NO. The LR's suede is total shit, and there's only like one layer of it until you hit your foot. not to mention they look like they were handmade by a blind kid.
that's just my experience with them though

Super hyped on the NB stratfords. The first session they were nice and flexible, super good board feel, but great cushion, and really comfy. These are so good in my book, I was a little skeptical at first, but these skate so well, I'll prob get that aviator blue/ scarlet red colorway next. They are a little narrow, kind of like the mike Mo shoe,  had to go half-size up from regular sizing.
