i was wanting to purchase some of the greco hammers online but, i was wondering if anyone knew if they fit to exact size or a little bigger? i've heard most supras fit about a .5 bigger so if you normally wear say a 9.5 in vans you would wear a 9 in supras. if anyone could confirm how they fit before i buy them i'd reallly appreciate it.

Be curious to know how they hold up - that toe cap is pretty much superficial, I've had a few pairs of Swifts and it wears through in just a few flicks. Almost pointless to even add it.

Mine lasted forever. I'm not hard on my shoes, but they held up much better than most of the shoes I buy.
I'd say the Swift is up there with NB quality. Not all of eS shoes are, but the swift is.

I'm not that hard on shoes these days but they hardly even got scuffed during my session due to how the outsole is positioned. I'm guessing they'd rip very quickly if there was no toe cap no? that's why the accel slim in everstitch was only recommended for cruising right?
I haven't skated eS in a minute but they pretty much broke in straight away and feel really solid construction wise. Heel lock is VICE! How long did you skate yours for Ian?

Fuck yea man, those are dope shoes! I can agree that those are very durable, I skated my pair like an month and no significant signs of wear are visible and I usually wear out on toe quite fast,like I burned thru toecap faster on Seslas than these. Also I really liked that sole, those elliptic grooves made it easy to break in and grip was on point. My pair still have plenty of life left on ’em, just needed some higher shoe for wintertime so I let my swifts wait till next summer to finish ’em... Have a good sessions on them!

e. Now that I noticed, we don’t just share same taste on shoes but pants too, I’m wearing very similar pair of cords atm😄

I skated mine for about 3 or 4 months I'd say, and that's a lot since I either blow through them quicker or just get tired of looking at them after 2 months.
They definitely had another 3 months in them I bet with the way they were wearing.

Don't get me wrong, I liked the Swift. I just felt that the spray on rubber toe cap was so thin that is was essentially pointless. I'm sure it's necessary on the everstitch though. I wore through the rubber on the toe in one spot in the first half hour I skated them, and I'm not hard on shoes either. The Sal 97 has a much more durable toe cap.

I’m a dumbass an still don’t know how to post pics but.
Reebok club c
I had one session in them and skated really well but the sidewall blew out like crazy. Used super glue on the seams for the first time ever.. wow how the fuck have I never done this!? Lasting forever. Gonna retire soon on account of horrible insoles that give me heel bruises on flat.

yeah, the grooves make it super easy to break in and the grip is on point! I'll also probably retire them for the colder months too and go back to my Ryan Lays but I was itching to try them and I'm glad I did!

hahaha we are 100% slap brothers from different mothers. If there was ever a slap global meet up, you would be the first dude I'd try and find and I reckon I could do it without any help. We pretty much have the exact same taste in gear!

I skated mine for about 3 or 4 months I'd say, and that's a lot since I either blow through them quicker or just get tired of looking at them after 2 months.

will do mate! As I said, I don't murder shoes so it might take me a while...

if they made Sal 97 in everstitch then I don't think I've ever skate any other shoe ever again!

im really digging how these look
they are great, not in their current lineup but you should still be able to find them online. I've heard that the OG ones pictured here are better quality than the 1.5's that are basically a muska/ creager mash up shoe? Who knows, if you can find a pair though defs give them a go!

*excuse my shitty brand writing on my soles.

The kalis lite is pretty comfy and skates really nicely to me. Sizing on all these legacy series shoes is a tad small, maybe consider going half a size up but I didn’t and they still feel great.

Btw the Dr Scholls insoles where you stand on the machine to find your custom size are the fucking best.


These have been my “chillers” lately
Straye, runs true to size, not small like the DC.
Comfy too.

slip on pros with game changer insoles

sometimes i really like ugly shoes because it means i dont give a fuck about trashing them right away.

this is my first time trying non stock insoles and its kind of weird.

Once you get used to the true feeling of your arch supported, you won’t ever wanna go back to stock insoles. Unless you happen to have arches that clash with game changers haha.
