Decided to take the Reynolds on a trip abroad, so the shoe is on all day.
They suck as chillers/commuters. Walking distances makes them rub at places on my feet.
I know they will rock as skate shoes though. The fit is wide but snug. Sole is stable. Nice puffy tongue protecting my feet.
Goes to show how feet differ. I had mine on for like 20 days straight on a trip. Skating and walking 20+ km per day.
Only problem was that they ended up smelling absolutely fucking terrible (more like shit and piss than sweat) so I had to buy new shoes in Paris. I managed to get rid of the stench with some shoe refresher spray and they were awesome after that until I retired them about a week ago.
No rubbing even in the beginning. Best shoes for my feet. They feel pretty much perfect straight out the box, which is rare for me. I do usually break in all my shoes easily by wearing them to work and going around and about short distances. The pair I wore on my trip had only a few weeks worth of light wear and skating on them.
Also they didn’t bag out for me at all. Wore through the sole and hot glued the uppers. They were awesome till the end unlike most shoes.
