i was actually thinking about getting those, how are those compared to the accel og? do they last nearly as long, and do they fit similar or do you have to size up?
The toe box is a little slimmer than the OG. Shaped differently, more narrow. They last the same as the OG, my laces ripped pretty fast 
But the whole shoe lasted a while, when I last skated a pair, maybe like 1.5 months, only laces ripped. Toe box and grip were great.
that sounds good, if they stretch out a little bit like most shoes it can work out, ive been skating the og for a while and was thinking of getting something a little thinner for the grip factor.
hope you don't mind if i chime in!
i had three pairs of the accel slims so far and really liked them. they stretch out a bit, i always went true to size but for comparison had to go up a half size on the SALs! they stretch out in a really cool way that the upper doesn't really bag out but they always stretched that they fit my foot pretty good after 2 sessions.
1) you might wanna put in a different insole!
2) i always had to superglue the stitching on the toe- then they lasted me over a month of skating. i fucking looooove the flick on these by the way!
