::) My point is this. This thread should be for skate shoes, it should be a thread where we post shoes we skate or plan to skate to give and receive feedback on performance, sizing, durability etc... But every time I check it it’s someone posting some poosey basketball shoes they got at footaction or some dweebs arguing about eBay knockoffs. It sucks.
That’s just my opinion (unsolicited as it may be).

It's called Post The Shoes You're Wearing. What's the problem if someone post some ball shoes? People have been skating in ball shoes for decades anyway.

Anyone know how the Kalis OG fits, especially compared to DC’s other cupsoles (like Legacy98slim, Kalis S)? I’d assume it’s consistent but wanna double check.

*probably not the correct thread but at least it’s skate shoe related.

They fit great. I'm either 9.5 or 9, got a size 9, and I can't wait to skate them. No complaints when I'm just wearing them around the house breaking them in.

I’m either 8.5 or 9, usually 9 with cupsoles so I’m going to go with that. Thanks!

I've had a better understanding of what is happening around me while smoking Salvia as a passenger in a moving vehicle than reading your post

They don't fit like the Kalis S, they fit closer to the Lynx in my opinion but slightly more stiff at first. I went with an 11 and they fit pretty true to size but I could have gone 0.5 size down if I wanted it to be super snug. Lynx are TTS, Kalis feel slightly small (0.5 size up), Legacy slims slightly small as well (0.5 size up)

i bought the mirage blue ones for about 30 bucks deadstock, skated them a couple times and they are the most comfortable vans shoe i've ever had, plus they really feel like a lower half cab pro which is great imo because half cabs are really hard to find where i live and they're my fav skate shoe

On my 4th pair right now. Big fan.

Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year

Looking sick! However this is one of the colours which gets dirty real quick and only looks good clean. I currently skate Vans Slip on pros in same colorway and machine wash them like every week in order for them too look nice. Pisses me off.

Accel (2017) in all black for Menikmati/PJ Ladd vibes...
For all I've said about these shoes not quite being what they used to be, they're still quite nice and fit pretty well. May end up skating these at some point.

Those shoes in that colorway are eye candy to me. Really love how black suede turns into a bluish/grey when skated. So sick.

Have you had a session in them yet? There's a brown/caramel colour for $30 aud. Wonder if I should give them a shot.

I was going to today but it's raining in Sydney

For $30 more fun than a 20 pack of cigarettes that's for sure
