Anyone pick up the new grosso skate mids yet? Eager to get my hands on that shoe but curious to see if the sizing has changed.

TTS (for your Vans size) but the "Ultracush 3D" insole is a tad firmer off the bat so it may be a bit more snug during the break-in period.

Had a pair of these long long ago, sold them before I skated them. Came across these for a pretty good deal.

If I’m a 9 in the adidas Tyshawn would I be a 9 in the Puigs?

Never had Tyshawns but I have Puigs on my regular size. I wear 8 on everything with the only classic NB# exception.
Hope this helps.

I planned to go skating after my rx appointment so I was wearing the vans Authenic Pros i skate in to the doctors and he said "those are really cool but if you care about your back & legs you should get some more supportive shoes when you skate, I guarantee you won't feel as sore"

These are the 1st addidas I've ever worn for skating and they were ready to go right out da box, which I thought only vulcanized shoes could do.



They go great with all my unnecessarily high/tight Bermuda shorts too, hairy man season coming soon baybee

They are pretty much the same weight. Indy 149 (Standards) are 400g and Ace AF1 55 are 396g. Any kind of weight relieved indy would be lighter though.

Emerica Dissents, on my 2nd pair of these with one more pair on deck. good shoe but the sole is going faster than the suede. think I might try the Dose next and see how hard that Formula G compound or whatever is. Alcove CC is supposed to be on the same sole. Spanky G6 would definitely be cushy for my feet.

quality is second to none on the MIUSA stuff, and the 998's are amazing. I wasn't so lucky with my Made Responsibly pair..

These are probably my favorite material object I have owned as an adult..30 something years ago, I needed new basketball ball shoes and I begged my father to get me some Jordan's, we couldn't afford them but he said he would try to get the money together only if I didn't tell my mom how much they were. By the time he had the money M&M sporting goods no longer had the Jordan's in my size but they did have the Air trainer 1's. Since they weren't a basketball sneaker he didn't want to do it. But apparently I did a good job convincing him that they could be used for everything. I played 1 season of basketball and skated my Variflex every motherfucking day in those shoes. I found these for $39 the other day and I am gonna crack a beer and remember some more amazing selfless acts that my father did for me. I miss that man every damn day.

Such a good story! Sorry about your dad, he sounded rad! That Polar colorway is so sick tho. I loved seeing Boserio’s skating them.

I skate a lot of reebok's

This is the club legacy. It skates just like the regular club. Because of the rubber under the toe, I'd rate it a little higher. It could do without the bit of stitching by the baby toe, but other than that. A solid alternative if you just want a visually different shoe. I like the translucent soles on these.

Thanks for the love man..very much appreciated! It's a hard road and it is kind of a weird thread for me to share the story in but I hoped you all might enjoy it because we all love shoes.. :) I just skated them for an hour and ironically they skate real good.

I got the spanky g6 now and it’s comfy as hell I bet if you look you can probably find some colorways on sell. Also I just ordered the wino cup sole has the same sole as the Spanky g6.

I got these axion's a couple days ago and they're really good. I'm impressed with how well they fit and how comfortable they are. The lining in the shoe is a very soft almost velvet material. They skate good so far. They also come with a decent insole as well. I would definitely recommend them.

That's a really beautiful memory about your father @Fhk hu   Thanks for sharing it with us.
The SB Polar Air Trainer 1s look so cool too. That's awesome that you have a new pair in 2021 to skate.
