Stan Smiths to chill and Samba ADV’s to skate. It’s crazy how most of the skate version ADV’s feel worse than the regular shoe model. The normal Sambas are so much better. Weird.

Oh, and I had to show some love to the HUF weed socks haha. Never bought them before and a 3 pack was in the sale bin at the shop. Good quality socks!!!

Those shoes are like the equivalent of pants sagging mid-thigh.   How much smaller do you have to buy them in order for them to stay on your foot with no laces, tongue straps

Ha!! Half a size down. But still fit perfectly. I wear them to work like this.

I cut nearly every shoe strap if the come with them. Then you can tongue fuck (shout out Jim Jones) the shit outta them 😂 plus I have a mega high foot arch and no matter how loose I wear them they don’t fly of unless I really kick it

More power to you that it works.   Wanted that effect back in the day, but I can’t stand any heel slippage

i really hurt my left foot a month+ ago just pushing around (getting old sucks) so after breaking in some Remind insoles and my Emerica Wino cupsole slip-one since then, I got to do a real session today and they felt great. @EmericaTM please tell me they’re not going away. I kinda want to only skate them from now on (after swapping out insoles apparently).

Nah they’re not going anywhere. We got 2 new colorways dropping in spring and over the next year or two we’ve got 2 team rider colorways dropping in them as well. Got a lot of pour-in G6 shoes dropping soon.

Awesome - very excited to hear that. I have a good back catalog of shoes to skate and I don’t go through them fast but now that I figured out what works, I honestly might just keep buying these for the foreseeable future.

He’s skating the black ones on IG recently. He’s on DC? Im confused. And the filmer is his brother John right who also rips?

Is anyone here a fan of Salomon’s?? For what they lack in style (I think they look awesome but I can see why some wouldn’t) they definitely make up for it in performance. I feel like I could walk up the side of a building in them! Puts ACG and other hiking type shoes to shame. If you ever get the chance, give them a go.

I tried on the Skate Classics and holy fuck is it a night and day difference from the PROs. I was genuinely surprised since I don't like vulcs anymore. Recently scooped two Half Cabs (black/white and all black) and a Sk8 Hi (TTS in both) because of it. All three from recent sales thankfully.

Fit feels identical to PROs but BETTER. Stiffer, more supportive, and the tongue straps actually keep the form right. I might actually skate the Cabs and keep the Sk8 Hi for chillin

Recently got a pair of XT-6s and they are divine. Took about a day just to break them in but I can't wait to use them on future excursions

Hell yeah man they are perfect now. I'm definitely going to get another pair for chilling. They're so comfy and look good with everything.

Very good shoe. Took me a little bit to break in but once they did the fit was great.

Once you get the sizing right they are one of the raddest. I have a white pair of the Alexis on the way. JP’s are one of the most visually pleasing shoes.

They really are. I’ve got the black Alexis pair and a pair of the JJ’s I can’t bring myself to skate just because they look so damn sick.

Between these and the fast breaks, I think you and I might be twins.

One of the best midsole. Can't wait for the Gamma G6

First pair of last resorts and they are kinda uncomfortable (haven’t broken them in tho). The toe box is very narrow but the sides are fairly wide for my foot; so they dont lock in my heel very well :/ love the way the look tho except the high fauxing tape kinda makes it look like a platform shoe. If I was to try another pair it’s have to be the vm001 high so I could actually skate them.
