are those some Solomon’s? they look sick.
This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.

Gave in and purchased NB 990v3's.
Goddamn they are comfy.
Shits cost more than my goodyear welted dress shoes.
I hope to wear the shit out of the NB's and walk at least 1000 miles.
My wife don't know about the purchase. I'll see her tomorrow, as I return from business trip with the NB's on. Good luck to me explaining out of the splurge.

Two weeks of walking in the 990v3's and I'm in heaven.
Thanks for all the support PALS.
This will sound silly, but my knees feel better.
I even convinced my wife to try them, and she agreed on comfort, but for her these look too much like those middle school running shoes. Too much materials and panelling for her.

Thereby a question - what else could come close in comfort - but with subtle design?

Salomon ACS Pro Advanced. Insanely comfortable, built like tanks. I definitely recommend

Still on the Lakai train

These are certainly the best fitting most comfortable ones I’ve tried on. They feel like they will skate good.

In my opinion, the best model from Lakai right now. I love that colorway but wasn't able to find them. I'd like to try the Telford Lows but not for 100 bucks in fancy colors. I am on my third pair of Atlantic's now and they are good. Just wish the sidewalls would have a bit more stiffness in them. But I also skate my shoes like 4-5 months.

Congrats whenever the wedding was.   Seems like a sensible shoe choice rather than a “get married in skate shoes” sentiment.

I bit the bullet on some Tom Knox 440s, not for skating, at least not for a long time.

Comfy but they rub the pinky a little

First pair of Blazers. Still breaking them in. Feels super secure and the look down factor is nice.

Breaking these in and skating them next. Excited to try something different but I think I'm going to have to replace the insoles. My cat definitely approves.

The hype is real!

Volcom Billow pants in marina blue, if you like loose-fit pants definitely consider buying them.

Hate the yellow accent but these feel good broken in

Lol. Eldee is definitely a human. He’s like a raider on horse back who’s kinda scared to do battle. Somehow he closes his eyes and swings his sword wildly and wakes up in a pile of dead orcs.

@EmericaTM  any inputs on purposefully sizing down a half a size with the slip cups?

I’ve got the spanky ones tts and I think I might do better fit wise if I size down a smidge.

Anyone ever tried a half size down for a more snug fit?
