Gilbert's are cool... but like, whats with the socks?

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

xen, I'm going to assume that you were having a bad day at work because you're putting way too much effort and energy to getting angry about this. It's slap, surely you were aware that there would be people that would hate on your pic no matter what just because of the nature of this forum. If you truly don't give a fuck you should have just ignored them but no, now you're in an argument about ankle socks and dad shoes.

JC Penny Zoo York socks I got at Ross for $6 a 6 pack. Strictly to be worn with pants.

This made me laugh way too hard. Thank you Gay Imp!

Anyone with the HUF Clive have insane foot pain after skating them??

[SWPhillyFloater]

Anyone with the HUF Clive have insane foot pain after skating them??

Yes, happened with me after the first couple sessions but it's not as bad anymore. It's probably because the insole isn't that great but I like how they skate despite taking longer to break in.

yeah that thicker foxing tape takes a bit to get through. Definitely putting the insoles from the classics in.

Thanks!

After constant suggestions on here, I managed to score a pair of these discounted, keen to see how they go.

For those that care:

Board feel is most excellent.

Heel area picks up and holds rocks just as bad as States: fucking annoying.

Had to swap out baby socks for thicker/padded ones as the shoes broke in fast and they seem to run big.

How tall does the sole feel on those things? It looks huge

[close]

Feels normal, doesn't feel high/tall at all, given that there isn't an insole in the traditional sense your foot sits lower. It looks way chunkier than it feels and there is plenty of flex, especially mid foot.

Are they comfortable? (Loved how comfy the Crockett 2s are)The insole being sewn in worry’s me. How do they skate?

[close]

Very comfortable, not much squish like the UltraCush. Mild arch support. They feel a bit long, like the TnTs did before the SGs (fuck that guy). Roomy toebox, good heel lock, especially when you lace the TOP eyelet, because, you know, that's what it's there for...some people's children were just never taught some shit they should know...

They have the same type of curve the Chima 2s and TnT Protos do (tried both on as well), not as pointy as the Walkers (which were too tight for me.

I've only rolled around to check board feel, a few kickflips/ollies and impossibles...they skate like new shoes, all that 'broken in out of the box' nonsense doesn't apply; there is plenty of sole flex but the outsole (if you rock/move left to right for example, is a tad rigid but it is a new shoe. Going to wear them around/to work, then skate them for real tomorrow night/Saturday. I'll post an update.

something about cream/off white and black together just looks wrong to me

I used to think it was weird, too, but the I picked up the TNT SGs (again, fuck that guy) in the mid off white checkerboard and really liked them, which is why I grabbed these (in addition to the other colorways sucking, tho the grape leaf is pretty sweet).

Cool tiny socks

Matched no shows for lows all day. Crews for mids. Fuck that tall sock low cut shoe business.

Are those the elijah berles? Fucking terrible looking. Reminds me of the sad late 90’s era of vans.
The low sock addition makes me think you spend more time watching your kids on razors at the park instead of you actually riding a skateboard.

Could also be front row for Pennywise at Gnarlytown.

You guys are assholes. Yeah, it's not a pretty shoe and he got overly defensive there after the initial comments. But that's no reason to slag him off like that. Might ruin the dude's mood and for what? Some internet cool points acting like bullies on the forums. Not worth it IMO.

He put himself out there for scrutiny, we didn’t ask him for the pic.
And he bought those shoes! We are here to help pals make better decisions.
