the white and black leather Dan Murphy/Indie colorway was one of the first skate shoes I owned. Huge regret skating them back in the 6th grade.

whoever said that the rowleys aren't nice to skate in must be smoking crack.

lol excuse my trippy looking hand, but finally reaching the 20 hr mark on these reynolds lows. No ollie hole, and the layers under the suede have still held up in the flick area. The grip is still intact completely too. although they take a few days to break in, they skate great after. will be picking up more of these!

Nike SB Classic Highs. Recently cleaned out my closet, and consolidated my collection a lot, gave a bunch of pairs to friends and made some trades for other shit. Found these in my closet which I got last year from SPOT. I wore them around for awhile back then to break them in, but I never skated them. They were a bit thin for me at the time, and I still wasn't that confident after recovering from major ankle injury. I threw em on yesterday and skated them for 4 hours, and I was super pleased. Great shoe, not too thin, not too bulky with great flexible ankle protection. Glad I decided to save them until now.
dude how's the sizing on those? are they TTS? i found some low/mid version of that in the internet and planning to buy it. do they stretch like janoskis?

Don't feel too bad, the word should be "deduced". Deducted means to subtract or take away. Unless he means well taken away, which would be goofy.

^^pretty much. im a 9 and usually go down half a number with cons but got these on sale in my number and fit well since its a hi top.

i noticed the most of the cons skate line have some cushioning and padding, so its not really necessary to go down half a size unless its a CTS

Wizard Fight turned me onto these Emerica High Laced a few pages back. I did a quick skate around the block in them, nothing serious just slappies and ollies and such, and they feel pretty good. I'm not a particularly big Emerica fan but I like the basic look.

be sure to come back with a review after you've shredded em.   I'll be particularly interested in a comparison to the Howard Desert Boot.

Yeah they're definitely true to size, I wear a 10.5, these are 10.5s and fit perfectly. I never had Janoski's so I can't say for sure, but they were definitely a bit tighter when I first purchased them. I wore them around significantly before ever trying to skate them, so they broke in really nicely. Nice soft suede and the hi's have nice ankle support. Little less then a dunk, but not a thin wall by any means. It's a skinnier shoe too, good for people with slimmer feet such as myself. Hope this helps.

I hope you like them, I don't know how I feel about influencing people.

I have no idea how to review a shoe. One thing I can say is the tan ones I have make me feel like I'm wearing Timberlands.

Art - most definitely, will do. I will say right off the bat the sole on this one will never compare to the sole on the Howard. @Wizard - no worries. I had never seen them before you posted them, I loved the look of them. That said, do you have the actual boot with the Vibram sole? These have the cupsoles, but Emerica made an actual Laced High functional Boot with a Vibram sole that you can wear through snow and hiking.
