Fresh pair of NB# 508s with some Jersey wildfire haze


Also finally breaking out this pair of 868s I mentioned in the NB thread I've been hoarding in my closet. NB# are really the best of the best.

868 would be the perfect skate shoe with a different sole pattern

Sir, I'm going to politely, but firmly, ask you and your common sense to leave this establishment.

@moonordie Yeah I only stepped outside for the pic and walked like 20 feet and it's indeed a pebble magnet.

Feels great to finally have new skate shoes



Adidas Tyshawn mid, these are the ones with the suede on the toe that's featured on the Tyshawn low. I hope this version of the Tyshawn keeps getting released, I like how the suede addition looks and it should definitely be a lot more durable in that area.

Look good! How's the sizing on the mids?

Those look really nice. I haven't had Adidas shoes in years but have always wanted to try Tyshawn's shoe. I hear those are narrow, though.  ???

These fit TTS for me, but they are snug and narrow so I'd definitely recommend trying them on in person. But as they break in, they'll stretch and feel a bit more roomy.

@yourbreakfsat Thanks for the info! I have the lows and I love em but my regular size is a tad roomy and a half size down would be too small. Some colorways of the mids, including yours, are on sale on CCS fyi... Your signature always makes me think of Lex Fridman.

Gotta get my aught-3 on brah

Real shit though, I have wide-adjacent feet and so many skate shoes are borderline unbearable. DCs have always been super comfy out the box
that would be crazy if your skin was made of hammers.

Daddy's first (skate) half cabs - I had OG's way back in the day but I was young and really into heel bruises - now they're the best shoes I've ever stepped on a board in. It took a year of skating in nb# 440's to get my legs and feet ready for vulcs.

nice cabs and beautiful mustang 😍

Thanks! the mustang is a squier from the golden era a few years back when they were decidedly better than low end fenders. I love playing it, and it looks silly on my 6'1" self!

Don't lace them all the way up and pair with your freshest pants. Never lets me down.

I like the super dope tongue look haha.  I do agree with others who have said the chive 92 half cab is different though

That’s the dream. I got lucky the same way with these ones which I also desperately wanted but haven’t skated them yet. Honestly I personally look terrible in them but I love them so much I don’t care

Es Quattro and KSL G6:
Quattro skated for a month and a half and the KSL has at least 3 months skated

KSL lace stay didn't start ripping until after 2.5 months in and that happens on every shoe that has a lace panel like it. Hasn't affected performance at all lately while skating em

Idk how y’all skate shoes for such a long time. As soon as my shoes look worn I get new ones. That raggedy homeless look is not ok on grown men with jobs and money in the bank. Unless that is how you want to be perceived…🥴🫣🫢

I typically only wear skate shoes when I skate; otherwise, I wear my new balance dad shoes when i'm just chilling.

Yeah, I’m not wearing the shoes I skate out around once they start to look shitty. Why would you not get your moneys worth out of a shoe if it lasts?

Once it starts turning raggedy personally i feel I’ve gotten my money’s worth. Can’t look down and feel good unless the kicks are crispy.

I suppose that’s fair. I’ll skate them until there’s a hole somewhere. When I was growing up I, the only way my parents would get me a new pair was if the current pair was completely thrashed, so that stuck with me.

Exactly. I'll wear them till they fall off my feet.
