I bought these 2 weeks ago, it's supposed to be a more durable material, I had to go full size up and they're still snug as fuck

Dude, they take the longest to break in but it is worth it once it does.

I bought that shoe in the exact same CW on the black friday 2 years ago. I hate them, worst spent money ever. I went TTS, they were painfully snug and the heel lock was shitty, skated them 2 or 3 times and gave up. Best thing was the lunarlon insole I used on other shoes.

All of Koston's models fit .5 too snug I think. They've all been pretty narrow.

Uhmm probably but I went TTS in the koston 3 that everyone say that are really snug/narrow and they feel pretty perfect on my feet after the first couple wears. My foot is really narrow, so I can actually size down on shoes that most people size up (busenitz pro I go half size down for example). The koston huarache just feels like its too short lenghtwise, but its wide after breaked in, so I need to tight them really hard to my feet not slide from side to side but they hurt my toes on the front.

i found a pair of bruin hyperfeels at the outlet yesterday for $25 and holy shit that shoe is so sick.  i always thought that it looked weird in pics but it looks good in person and broke in immediately (after microwaving)

fit was asking for it. who knows, maybe I gotta pick my nonexistent kids up in a rainstorm

They're narrowish, same outsole as the retired lunar gato. I went TTS and they fit fine

I hope they are nice to skate. I don't except much from the mesh, but i hope that the sole is good. Adi ease and the matchcourt hurt my feet everytime i skate in them.

These look amazing, I had no idea these were made. I don't fuck with Nike SB but if I did, I'd buy these in an instant.

If they made the orange ones again, I'd break my principles though.. That back tail kickflip out he did in em is burned into my memory

Not a really feeling these. Something about the sole, it kind of feels like you're standing on platform. Just feels a bit awkward and has higher potential to roll ankle.

True, my roommate sprained his ankle in that shoe.  I've actually known quite a lot of people that rolled their ankle in either these or Busenitz vulcs.

i actually really dig them,well there almost the same as the koston2 which i liked which is why i really like these ones. i've skated em twice and i like them a lot.

All of Koston's models fit .5 too snug I think. They've all been pretty narrow.

All Nike Koston's fit me TTS. The K1, K2, Hurache, and K3. Agreed on the narrow part, and I'm always a big fan of that heel to toe.

All that said, oddly enough I had to go .5 size down in the new Koston hypervulc. I'm glad I bought them at the shop because I tried the 10 on first and they felt long in the toebox. I tried the 9.5 and they fit perfectly.
