Post the shoes you're wearing.

Anyone skate the Adidas TJ? I’m an 8.5 in half cab pro what would I be in the Tyshawn? 8.5?

[Manolo]

Holy shit i can't believe Manolo still owns these.
i feel like a lot of people don't own any eS's from this period (8-10 years ago), and i'm surprised to see you still rock them.
These were the ellipses right? These shits were kinda funky but i snagged a pair or two at the time just to chill in.

Yeah ellipse. the sole is basically the K2. Super comfy, that's what és should reissue or rework instead of Agassi moon boots.

Nice first sesh for these legacies. Still need to break in the leather but their shape and overall support feel great so far, should be a good shoe for me

Last pair of states in my stash. More on the way

I’m impressed you survived passing through that airplane engine

Actually made me think I might be immortal.

New state keys!

[fang]

No pics handy but I went back to adidas and just to solidify my choice,  I bought:
Lucas white/ ink
Busenitz vulc black / white
3mc all white (yesterday at adidas outlet for like 35 bucks)

Wearing them at work , really like them. The 3mc. I know the other 2 are boss

[Allen.]

How do the 2013 lunar gato skate? I have a pair i never bothered to skate and im afraid the time is now.

I remember them being great. Not as good as a dunk (in my opinion) but looked just as cool.

Might be the best shoe I’ve had in the last few years

I need to go down 0.5 size in half cab pros- so iam usually a size 8 in lets say adidas lucas, DC and emerica, same goes for the TJ shoe. tried 8.5 wich was too roomy, size 8 woulda been perfect.
Hope that helps

with the edgars did you have the problem where it felt like the upper was stabbing the top of your foot?? I probably just have tall feet or something, but those and a pair of states gave me the same nightmare ish issue.

they skated amazing after muscling through the pain tthough

Yes absolutely, i had to wear thin socks w them at first, they did take awhile to break in but they fit amazing now. I really wish i got more than 1 pair of them

[VHS ERA]

First pair of SB Blazers. Was hyped on them because they’re mad comfy and look better than my other skate shoes. I figured this was it for me now but uhhh... big ass hole on the 3rd time skating? Is that normal for these?

Not at all, it's a defect on the suede. Send them back if you can.

Yeah, man that's got to be a defect. I never had that happen to a pair of blazer mids.

[Glurmpz]

They should have come with white laces. Surprisingly hard to find a set downtown, had to get crazy long ones and chop em. These shoes feel amazing.

[daewonbong3000]

Picked up the new AVE shoe today.

Did you go tts with these? Got a pair online in 10 which I wear in all vans. They feel just a little too long in the toe

Ah ok. I’m just glad to hear that they aren’t actually trash normally because I liked them. I’ll try once more.

[Slugboi22]

I’m looking for a good cupsole. Been wanting to try one lately. I’d prefer something with a roomy toebox! Any suggestions???

I went TTS and they are hands down the best fitting skate shoe I’ve ever owned. A little bummed I ripped that mesh part above the toe cap within 2 sessions

I went TTS and they feel perfect out the box. Gonna skate them today. Definitely worried about ripping the mesh.

[handsclapanin]

Got another 5 pairs, assorted colors, in the box. So I have at least a year before I need to figure out a new shoe. It's been a good run with the Reynolds.

I need to go down 0.5 size in half cab pros- so iam usually a size 8 in lets say adidas lucas, DC and emerica, same goes for the TJ shoe. tried 8.5 wich was too roomy, size 8 woulda been perfect.
Hope that helps

Skating the tj now. I don't like it. I wear mid top cups only, so I thought this would be perfect. It's got a super high arch which I absolutely hate. Also, the rubber on my heel is coming off in chunks.

I really thought this would be the best shoe I've ever had and was stoked when I got em. This is my first pair of 'corpo' shoes so I was hoping to really see a difference in quality compared to sole tech. But im ready to go back to marana mids.

Could have just been a weak pair but I found the quality of adidas wasn't worth the price hike.

Dunks

You gotta try them on and make sure you get the right size.

[The Woodsman]

Does vans make the chukka boot in a pro? If so does anyone know where I can get some?

[Painted Baby]

Never that I'm aware of. The closest you can find would be the Chima 1 Pro which was basically a chukka low I think? Feel free to chime in if I'm talking shit.

They used to. I got these still unskated.
