One of the newer 1010 colorways. Probably my favorite so far. I went tts this time instead of half size down and I think they fit much better, at least for me. Also picked up the new black / gum 440 hi's and they are insanely comfortable.

I just got the same Tiagos today. I have shoes waiting to be skated, but needed a shoe with a proper midsole for its support. Is the general consensus with the Tiagos to go half a size down? I went tts and they fit perfectly. Do other color ways fit differently?
[close]

I have a friend that has pretty much exclusively skated the tiagos since they first released and he swears by going half down, so on his rec on my first pair I did the same. They still fit fine I just think I prefer the tiny bit of extra room I get going tts.

As far as different colorways I've tried on the white leather pair (early summer release? cant remember) a few times now and they feel snug, but I think that's just a matter of breaking them in vs suede feeling pretty great right out of the box.

I went down half a size and kind of wish I didn't, just a bit too snug on my toes. TTS I would say

The problem with fit recommendations is that a) everyone has different feet and b) everyone has a different idea of optimal fit. I tried half size down on 1010s and my toes were scrunched, totally not a viable option for me.
take what small comfort there may be left
seize what you love and damn all the rest

I've usually only had Vans for chilling in, but I've been loving the Crockett high. Had to snag the new bungee colorway.

Goddamn those look good with the black laces

Are the Crockett's tts?  Also, how breathable is the canvas?  Thinking this might be a good winter skate shoe.  Haven't skated in the winter in over 10 years, but recently took a long overdue break from alcohol and am feeling super motivated to bundle up and at least rip around on my cruiser.

Also I doubt most people saying TTS have actually measured with a brannock device, and are just going off what sneaker size most commonly fits them

I'm an 11C in actual measurement, but nearly any athletic shoe I've tried fits way small and I have to run 11.5D, sometimes 12. And my Red Wing boots are 10.5...

You're going to confuse a lot of people who know their actual size, saying TTS when you have no idea what your actual size is.

If I could only have 2 fits, it would be dark jeans/dunks and brown cords/halfcabs.
Levis?

They seem to be tts in my experience. I usually wear a 9, and that's what fits me in the Crocketts. As far as breathability goes I'd say they're just average. They don't have a lot of perforation or anything like that, but I haven't noticed my feet getting hot in them. I'd say give them a try because I don't have any significant complaints about them, plus mine have been holding up fairly well.

Haha. They are lululemon jogger pants. I just finished working out and then I went to the skate shops then grabbed the Ishod shoe.

Put them on when I got home and took pics.

Well. Thanks.
I’m mainly impressed with your honesty. That’s my big takeaway.



And I want the Ishod’s.

I feel like at least on the black pairs you can sharpie out the swoosh on the toe to make it less noticeable.

yeah for real, even the on foot pics from instagram people didn't make it seem as puffy as it is, not that i feel it's 'too puffy' by the way.
also i don't know how i didn't notice the third swoosh on the tongue until now, how embarrassing...

Can't believe I'm posting to this thread AGAIN but figured I'd break up the Ishod love with my ongoing shoe madness. ngl I saw a kid wearing these at the park the other day and thought "man, those cabs are obnoxious" and then ordered a pair, lol.
