maybe my feet are just shaped weird for that shoe but i actually didnt like the lucas 1, the thin side walls hurt when i would ollie and the sole had a weird bend to it. always wanted the white suede ones anyway

Nah, you're feet aren't weird it's just specific shapes/stitching/whatever don't work for every foot.  I can't wear most nike or a lot of huf shoes for this reason, even though a lot of people love them.  They just don't fit my feet right ( usually too narrow/flat ).  I don't think there is one shoe that will work for everyone.

Those pink ones are pretty sick though...

can't tell if on sarcasm or not?
They (all) look like a cheap knockoff of Cara Beth Burnside's pro model back in the 90s

Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year

Kinda miss the classic bulk shoe, like the fallen Chris Cole rippers. A perfect medium of protective bulk and vulc. These thin shoes be hurting even with footprints sometimes

I have considered spraypainting shoes before, but I have concerns about the solvent soaking in the materials and how it will affect my feet. My feet are already sweat, mix that with paint solvent and I predict result of bad smell at least. Anyone can share experience?

I bought the Fairfax colorway in the Adi-ease a couple days ago, and I'm sold on that model.  I'm definitely going to get a couple more colors, they fit my foot perfect.

Anyone care to offer up opinion on the avclassic lows? Tried on an old pair of AV sk8 lows I have in my collection and realised how much I like the toe box on them, figured the classic would be similar

I had a pair, mostly for chilling but every time i stepped on my board with them they felt really nice. I found that the sizing was .5 big and if you have skinny feet like me then I would definitely size down. They fit really nicely and even with the really rounded toe they still flicked nicely. Only con is that they stretched (mine were canvas)

I really want to try a pair but I'm bummed they don't have the collar padding like the sk8 lo's did.

Of those, the Dunk is going to feel the "safest".

The new Hsu is garbage fyi. No support, super floppy, thin, etc..

Just started skating these, got them for $25, feels like it's 1994. No tongue straps though, only downside.

you never know about pre-cum
