Just got my first pair of Tom Knox 600s. Shoe feels incredible and will probably be my go to shoe from now on. Only thing I would change about it would be to add tongue straps, of all the things added to the shoe I’m not sure why they didnt add tongue straps.

Would you say they are TTS? Also these look so good. I want a pair now.

Have of the launch cw (white leather and black suede) and both TTS for me.

Yeah I guess I’d say that they’re true to size. I have a little bit of wiggle room, which I assume will go away once the shoe breaks in and molds to my foot. I like my shoes to fit really snug so I may go down half a size for my next pair to see how that feels.

How’s the heel slip? 306 and 440 gave me heel slip issues
Fit is pretty good, I had to lace them all the way up tho. Usually I like to leave one free which on these is possible bit it feels way better all the way up.
Sir, I'm going to politely, but firmly, ask you and your common sense to leave this establishment.

I don’t get any heel slip myself. I lace em to the second from the top and the fit is good in regards to the heel.

Just ordered some new Accel slim mids, so I decided to bust out these old pair I had under the bed that I used to wear as chillers to see if I liked how they skated. Coming off years of only skating blazer mids, these actually skated pretty damn good imo. I'm going to start skating the new pair once the arrive in the mail next WK.

Second pair I’ve skated. I run a size 9. The first pair was a size 9 and felt huge. Got a 8.5 and fits perfect.
Either I’m trippin and my shoe size is 8.5 or all NBs are a bit big on me. But then I’ve boight the 808s in size 9 and they feel super snug and small.
We rode 7.5's" and didn't complain.

in that scenario i'd say my true size would be the one i get my NB 480s in- 7.5 and NB 808 are half size up for most people (via NB Thread). i get those in a Size 8

Damn these look so nice. I was a little uncertain if I would like the look of the all suede. The product photos seem a little iffy but on foot they look great. The CM001 is a slept on shoe.

They're not. They're strangely tight, dont feel like a chiller shoe at all to me.
Had a hard time skating them too, heelslip is horrible in them.
Never understood where the NB hype is coming from.
All shoes i tried (1010, 808, 480, 440 v1 and 2, felt horrible.
Only good feeling one was the 600.

But it's just my personal feeling.
It wont take long for all the NB Fans to tell you otherwise i guess.

I'd just get some NB 990's or some other model, expensive but will last you a long time. I love skating the 1010's but some NB lifestyle shoes will be comfier and better for your feet in the long run.

Haven't skated in them yet, been my workout pair and would say after they break in they are pretty comfy for a skate shoe, no doubt.

Would also recc a 990 for true comfort, but they also have hundreds of other non USA made models that are cheaper, but still very comfy, check out 2002R, 580, 860v2, 530, etc (if you like the runner/dad shoe look)

We talking NB hypetrains? I just got these 600s and I love how they look and feel on foot. They kind of remind me of a slimmed down 1010. I'm excited to skate them after my current shoes die.



I also back 990s as chillers. I have the 990v4s and they're insanely comfortable, even compared to the numeric line.

also shouts out @fuhkin_powahfood_kid for the cords <3
