I feel like Ross is pretty blown out where I live. The last come up was a few years ago when I found a pair of those high top Praxis shoes. Recently picked up a pretty sick salad spinner and some irregular dockers tho.

What's an irregular dockers?

can't tell if serious but my guess would be dockers pants that have an irregular cut/fit so they're at Ross's

I've had plenty of occasions where I check three Ross' in one day trying to find shoes, only to find nothing worth getting at all. It definitely takes going multiple times in a week to find that one day where they just got a shipment of all the good shit. Sometimes you get lucky though. Like yesterday I pretty much just checked one on a whim and found those DCs.
One thing you will almost always find there though are chucks (for those of you who skate in OG chucks). There is almost always a pair in Ross everytime I go. They usually come in some weird colors (I just saw a pair in lime green and a forest green pair today), but a lot of times you'll find some in decent colors too.
Las Vegas Ross suck haha every time I go there isn't shit

Hah you just gotta go on the right days, cuz the good shit always goes fast. I've found the sickest shoes there throughout the years, as well as pants/shirts on occasion too.

Ross is so hit or miss.  I live in a heavily Latin neighborhood in DC.  Tons of Salvadoreans, Bolivians, and Venezuelans.  Our Ross gets all the best Nike and Adidas soccer/football stuff.  So good for shorts, jerseys, socks, and shoes.

Just bought these and I want to make em all white without lowering the quality.



Is bleaching good for that?

Wolf S are the of the best DC's that I have skated. About two weeks in and super suede are on point. All I do are kickflips, no holes. Just the ripped lace.

About done with these, gonna give the Matt Miller shoe a try next.

Yes, Nike outlets don't discriminate. They sell all things Nike makes.

They are super comfy, and surprisingly supportive being that they are just the knit material. I'll be getting another pair for sure.

Skated these for a week or so.

2 heelbruises and two rolled ankles froms skating flat and ledges. Didn't roll an ankle in 5 years.



Anyone recommend a low top shoe with good ankle support?

damn that's crazy. those shoes were pretty much impossible to roll an ankle for me. weird how different shoes work differently for different people

Yesterday i tried some for the first time at some Adidas store. They were half the price and i was really tempted to buy em but the pair had some defect inside the right foot... Bummer because overall they felt perfect. Good Heel cushioning and a sharp toe perfect for flips. I'll buy some in the near future i hope!

I've seen a couple people complain about this and I did have one or two pair that felt that way, but overall it's never really been an issue for me.  I think it was more so with my pairs with white soles.  The gum seemed fine from what I remember

Thanks to Supra for the shoes. I am feeling the Hammer run and the Avex.

Was gonna skate in the Matt Miller S next, but gonna try out the Avex. Heard good things.
