If I'm a 9 in the Adidas Busenitz vulc what would I be in the Superstar ADV, Lucas, etc? I tried the Suciu 2 in 9 it fit too big/long.

state felton

my initial impression is disappointment. I loved my Keys right away. These feel narrower and have noticeable heel slip. i was assuming since they are slightly higher they would fit tighter on the heel but that doesnt seem the case.

they dont feel horrible or anything. im hoping as they break in they change. the keys didnt need any break in.

I find they don’t heel slip while skating, they feel floppy when I put them on but don’t have any issues whatsoever when actually skating them.

I prefer the Felton to the keys. My toes were cramped in the keys and have a bit more breathing room in the Felton in a good way.

It's such a nice looking shoe. I've got two pairs of the black leather ones, one pair of the fog leathers and one pair of black suedes. Dunno if I'll ever skate them. Would probably have to find replacement smart looking skate shoes before that.

I ordered the Suciu 2s for cheap and couldn't wait to try the Adiprene, but sure enough, ran into the same problem I had when trying the Bristols: the damn collar and heel is not tall enough to accomodate such a cushy insole. So my heel is lifting out of the shoe even when they're fully laced up and tied down. SMDH. thinking of trying some Griffins, since they look to be a higher collar, or Sheffields since the Manchesters have always fit well.

That is one of the best looking shoes ever. I had that color of the Etnies Rap in 95'. I wish Accels fit me better - I could skate that colorway forever. Unfortunately, 10.5 is way too tight to stretch out, and 11 is too big. Big jump for half a size.

Duuuuuuuude! Careful what you say around here - I got crucified for suggesting that shoe to someone for a similar reason.

They just need to do that colorway in the "og." I can't wear those slims.

Supposedly, they changed the accel slim insole to a thin energy foam in the newer runs.
I haven't had a chance to try it yet since I burned money on 2 pairs of slims thinking I would like them more.

Apparently, there is similar colorway for Accel OG.

 I believe this is the case. I have the same exact shoe, just got it about a month ago and the insole is different from my previous slims. I still swapped it out for some leftover lunarlon insoles I have though, because all éS insoles are too thin regardless of what they're made of.

The white on the edge of the sole is barely starting to harden up - and my soul hardens with them.

If you're an 8.5 I have two pair I think I'm going to let go of and one pair has only been worn a few times and never skated and I think the other pair was skated 1-2 times and worn a handful.

I’m 10.5 and in Finland so the logistics wouldn’t work but thanks for the offer.  :)

The heel feels slightly raised but it feels like it’s gonna skate nicely in the forefoot area.

They are really comfy.
The feel is somewhat wide, they aren’t as thin as like an accel slim or even the emerica west gates that had the rubber toe.
Slightly wider than those shoes i mentioned.

Not really a puffy wide feeling shoe but not a thin shoe, but it has a very solid stable cupsole feeling.

Look so clean. Honestly, I'm a clearance rat and only buy sale shit, but bummed Huf is done. At the very least, I hope they keep producing the Dylans.
