I still haven’t got a pair of these yet and I’m upset. What is the thoughts of the re-issue ones? 10 points for the skater/trick lol

Most comfortable shoes I own

are those axions?

yes
[close]

if that crazy sale they had last month is still going on I might have to cop. they look so good in that picture. or at least as good as they can for a photo shot on a potato
[close]

I wanted to pull the trigger but I couldn't figure out the sizing. I know they run small and honestly the price was so cheap it would've been worth just taking a shot in the dark, but I just couldn't do it. Also, I think the shipping was nearly as high as the shoes.

Unless they changed significantly after I bought the launch pair, they were tts for me.

I had the launch pair Genesis and should have went up at least 0.5 size. They were definitely narrow for me in my usual size.

I dropped in on the sale. Got an 11.5 (my TTS) and 12. Both fit, 11.5 a little snug but totally fine and 12 being perfect w/ a little room but barely. I'm going to skate the 11.5 first cuz they feel how I normally wear shoes. Copped the Blue/White/Gum Genesis, sucker for that trio of colors & Nvy/Gum like a Koston 1.

I wear a 13 in Nike/Vans and they don't do half sizes in the larger sizes, so it was order 13 and worry they'd be too small or go up to 14 (where options are pretty limited). Was safer to let those go by, though i really liked the looks of them.

Spring Summer cupsole shoe collection-



Fall Winter cupsoles-



Gnarred. That's a sick collection. Since you have a few pairs of the 1010. How is the sizing on them? True to size, half up or half down?

I wear size 13 in Nikes and Vans. Size 13 808s were way too small on my feet, had to return them. 1010s felt better but still snug. Can't believe anyone would recommend sizing down.

I've seen that on a few cupsoles out of the box, just used a little glue and had no issues. Hell I've even got Jordans with this and my only problem is that I'm a perfecectionist when it comes to aesthetics so even the smallest glue stain drives me nuts.

Thanks. I'll do that. Stuff like this freaks me out every time especially with barely used shoes.

I've had that happen with numerous stitched cupsoles over the years: Nike, etnies, es, lakai, etc. Most of the time, it's not an issue. Just snip the excess or glue it down and you're chillin!

The only time it's an issue is when it's on the toe area. When wearing the outsole  down, sometimes the threading rips and it comes loose internally. You can sometimes feel it on the inside with your toes. I've had to snip/shoe goo/glue threading down ans continue skating the shoes to make them last until I could skate new ones.

TL;DR - no issue since it's on the heel and it shouldn't affect the quality/performance of the shoe!

Good to hear that. Btw, whoever said here Joslins are .5 size up, I listened, but that wasn't the case for me. It bums me these arent snug on the toes and I won't skate these now.  :(

New Balance Numeric 306. I went down half a size since TTS felt a little bit too big. Probably my favorite thin shoe to skate so far, I wasn't expecting them to feel pretty good.

Same thing for me. I bought a 9 and felt like i could've gone down a bit. But I like a little room in my shoe so I thought it wasn't that bad. But then I started walking/skating them. There is this spot below the laces and just above the stitching on the suede. That part for me wasn't flexible at all. It would crease into my foot and I had to tie down my shoe to the top lace hole for the shoe to actually stay on my heel.
We rode 7.5's" and didn't complain.

Usually, yes. I didn't have a choice to try them first so I just went with whatever info I could find. Weirdly, when I step on the insoles, there isnt much of extra space but the shoe just feels bigger than usual somehow. Maybe it's the shape. Today I walked a bit more with them and I'm getting more used to the size feel.

The comfiest. Definite go to’s on non-work days. I found them online a couple years after the drop and probably bought the last few pairs available to share with a couple friends in 2020.

I grew up loving Peanuts. I wasn’t really impressed with the rest of the drop, but these were worth the hunt.
