Second day skating these. Switched up from some TNT5's, which were killing my knees, hips, and back. I think I'm just too old and fat for Vans. My body feels great in these, and still have a decent amount of grip and board feel.

Awesome. Were these an eBay find?

White shoes trend indeed. Haven't worn dunks in a long time. Forgot the comfortability.

Will probably skate in these one's next, found these randomly in my closet.

Yeap. Been skating a lot of non-sb nikes I find on there for the low.

What are those? Dunk Lows? I've been skating some Lakai (which I liked but lost too much tread too quickly) and some Reynolds 3's but need some more cushion for the pushin. Tried some Supras I found at Ross but ditched them after two sessions.

these were so good i immediately bought another pair.

Nice, max power. I need to get those gray ones.

Only thing wrong with my NB# is lace ripping. No rips in the toe and all I do are kickflips.

I'm down with them though.

Yup, dunk low. Surprised you can't spot them right away. Dunk has a very recognizable shoe silhouette.

You should try the dunk, guaranteed to last longer than any other shoes you just mentioned. Especially the soles.

Oh thank you! I've been living in Australia and I've been trying to pick up a pair for when I return back home but every time I try to access the Vans site it redirects to the Aussie Vans site which doesn't have them. But I guess you linking it to me got me to where I needed to be.

Are they using less synthetic uppers? Last couple of pairs I rode were pretty stiff and didn't breath at all...

Still, your pics got me pining for a dunk. Such a good shoe for board feel and comfort.

The white/gum one's are canvas, don't plan in skating those. But the Plus x Dunk low SB is just plain old suede. Suede you would find in any other brand.

Probably will breathe better than a nubuck or thick-ish leather shoe.

Max - right there with you on the NB# Stratford. One of the best skate shoes available and worth every cent. Every upgrade NB made to the shoe was perfect. I am going to post up a pic later of the Logan-S I've been skating.

Those I posted are all leather. Still a bit stiff, but not awful. Will be great when fully broken in. I prefer all suede, if I can find them. One of my all time most favorite shoe.

Hope so, the 533 is indeed the best NB# model they offer.

Maybe they'll send a couple of each cupsole's and vulc's?

Sorry if it's already been asked, but how do the New Balance cupsoles fit? Been skating vans forever, looking to switch over to something with some support. Looking at the logan s 676's

heritage · « **Reply #22975 on:** June 12, 2015, 03:20:55 PM »

NB for skating and chillers....

Logan-S 636. Really nice shoe. Fits great side to side and heel to toe, but it definitely feels wider to me than both my Logan 637 and Stratford 533. These will definitely appeal to those with wider feet:

Also grabbed these for chillers....New Balance CRT300. Same great RevLite cupsole as what's used on NB# skate line:

wisdom teeth · « **Reply #22976 on:** June 12, 2015, 03:30:41 PM »

Yeah dude those logans were the exact pair I was considering! I have a sort of wide foot, wear a 9 in vulcs, you think a 9.5 would work?

Honestly, I would stay true to size. I wear a 10 in every shoe and NB# 10 fits me perfectly across the entire line.

You will love them. It is a really well made and comfortable skate shoe.
