Bought these Vans x Pass~Port old skools yesterday. For some reason they didn't come with the pin set, which bummed me out :'(. But they're nice shoes and Pass~Port is a cool company so whatever
EDIT: Sorry for the gigantic photo! Anyone know how I can change/prevent this from happening again?

just look up photo resizer on Google, save, then upload to whatever photo website you use. I think some of them let you embed straight from there.

Just bought some Old Skills from Uprise yesterday, I was really bummed they didn't have the white leather in my size, I want to know what it's like to skate leather shoes. That being said, I'm trying to hold out on skating these until spring so I can wear skate shoes around that don't look like a cumrag. I think I'll also put on a toecap via plastidip.

I saw your mom do a ollie to cooch drop straight down the big black pole, it was gnarly. she defiantly shut that shit down

May have been talked about already, but has anyone skated the DC wes 2's? They look killer and I'm well over due for a break from Emerica.

Haven't skated them but I've tried them on a few times. They fit real nice and snug, they feel like they'll skate amazing. In my opinion, DC makes probably the best quality skate shoes. I just got done skating the Evan Smiths and if you have a wide foot, those are a winner. One of the most comfortable shoes I've ever had. They were a bit too wide in the toe area for my foot but man, are they cushy.

Got these on sale for 30 something bucks. They have tongue straps so laces are optional. Haven't been using laces and they fit like a glove, slip on and off super easy. Vans was really doing it right with these older versions of the Era Pro.

I went with my normal size and they felt good to me.  If you like a snug fit you could maybe go down .5

I recommend GIMP. It's free. You can resize images with Image Scale in the Image menu bar. And it's a pretty nifty program in general for editing graphics.

Yea GIMP is a cool bootleg photoshop, but if you're using imgur to post, just edit the image there and change the dimensions to 480x640 and save it. Easy.

I haven't skated a cup in awhile so it was a little weird skating these at first. I now think these will be my go-to shoe from now on.

What are these called?

No, I cut the tongue.

I guess I'm the only one that keeps the long tongue on the Busenitz? Skated like 10+ pairs, always looked sick with the long tongue.

Especially the first couple years the shoe was out, tongue was long. Now the newer ones are still long, but are shorter than the older ones.

There's two types of people: those who cut the tongues of Busenitz Pros, and those who don't take it in the ass.

The way you have it phrased, taking it in the ass is good?

It's complex, I understand. Let me explain: if you cut your Busenitz Pro tongue, you take it up the ass.
