I like them a lot. I have had a couple pairs before. These are .5 size up from what I normally wear because they were a good price and seem to be getting pretty rare. Nothing I can't fix with a FP insole. Can't wait to skate them next weekend. The toe box is good it's really rounded and wide which I like

Was truly a great model. Even ripping shoe laces every session, well worth it!

Been buying these slips from Kohl's or Famous Footwear, infinitely X's better than the regular Vans slip-on with the extra material on the toe & a little bit more cushioning around the ankle.

I swapped out the insoles in my Classic His for the ones in my Choices, gotta say it feels so much better and the boardfeel is way better as well. I liked the thick heel in the stock insole of my His but it always felt just a little weird

In a few days when they come in. Scored these on eBay. I skated so many pairs of these between 06 and 07. One of my all time favorite shoes. Want to see if they still hold up all this time later. Kind of a consolation prize for not being able to find any Lynx 2 in my size anywhere.

Does anyone have sizing info on the lunar gatos? found some on eBay I'd like to try out but I'm unsure of what the correct size to order. Also, do the lunar gatos have good board feel? I haven't skated a cupsole in forever and I'm worried that I'm just going to hate them if I can't feel my skateboard underneath me.
[close]
They're one of the best shoes I've ever skated. Sizing wise true to size, I've only ever had a handful of Nikes in my life SB or otherwise and I've always found them quite narrow as I have wide feet and while snug they stretch out easy and didn't become sloppy. For a cup sole with the lunuron midsole they have surprisingly good board feel, nothing like a vulc but good, they take a while to bald but even when they do they're still grippy. Great toe box shape and flick but I'd suggest dropping some super glue on the detail stitching on the toe before skating in them. Fuck Nike blah blah blah but these were some of the best and I keep digging out an old pair for a session and I still have a fresh pair in the box for one day on the future.
Thanks!

I'm a 10 in every Nike shoe except the Lunar Gato. I got a 10 in those and they were so tight I had to get rid of them. Just my opinion but I'd go a half size up.
Good to know. I got skinny feet so I don't think it's gonna be a problem for me

Anybody got the Cons One Stars? Is the fit the same as in chucks i.e. one full size down? Could possibly grab a pair for cheap, the hairy suede ones in yellow.
[close]
I went a full size down on my one stars, but the toe on the one stars is pointier than the toe on the CTAS so you may want to consider going only .5 down because then your toes will be more comfortable.
[close]

Thanks. Might have to give them a pass then, as I can't be sure of the sizing. How did you like them otherwise?
Honestly they are just another vulc model, it's pretty predictable how they will skate, all I can say is that I found the suede to be more durable than your average shoe and that it comes with the lunarlon so it's comfy and has good impact support (for a vulc).

They are actually really good, I'd dare to say the best slip-on I've had.

Still no cupsoled staple, the staple colors for spring are navy/white and off white with black sole. The owen will have the VLK sole that the GuyMar has

I seen that, also seen a Krooked collab shoe, it was yellow. I forgot the name.

Just took a quick glance at the catalog earlier today.

They were called the Era. The Rowley XL2, DVS Milan, these, and the more recent Adidas SLR are all favorites of mine. Something about that style.

Do you find the sole to be slippery? on my pair they were really slippy, and I want blazers again, but not if they still haven't changed the sole to make it more grippy.
