What year is it? Where did you get a ct-iv?

2024 is the current year but the re-issue of the shoe was in 2019 i think. ebay has some. one dude had a nice navy colorway for $100, told him i wanted to skate em and he got me for 55; nice guy.

You’re gonna want to superglue where these seems rip pretty quick, but enjoy, I’m onto my second pair. Stocked up and found 13 more and Amazon’s only lost one in the mail

+1 on the supergluing these seams. Only fault of the shoe. Surprised other co's don't do a slip cup variation.

defiently will, the sole is seperating on the sides, what should i do? these came out in 2019 so the glue is a lil old. should i super glue em on the sides? the thing i love MOS Tabout these is that the tounge is connected to the side of the shoe. crazy we still dont do this.

Dunks and waiting for my root canal appointment


when i first saw that colorway i fucking hated it so much.......seeing them more and more though they look hella good to me now. maybe was just the lighting on that first photo or was a sample wich wasn't the final/ production material in the beginning?

Anyway those are hot and i hope you gained some confidence wearing some dope shoes going into that appointment. hope it was as chill as can be too

I just got my first pair of sb dunks since 08. I was going to get those but decided to get the black gum because I didn't think I could pull off that color. Now I regret not getting them.

Thanks! It wasn't too bad. I didn't like those dunks either when i first saw the pics. After seeing them live i had to get them. Quality is also good. Thinking about getting another pair because they are sitting on shelfs :D

first time trying the cup version of the wino slip on and I’ll definitely buy more as long as it’s around. I pray emerica does whatever they have to do to keep the g6 midsole in production


Skating same shoe and color right now, tactics has them on sale. I wore them at work a few days to break them in and have skated them 3-4 sessions now and these are the best slip ons ever made. The Lakai Owens come in at a close 2nd for me, but these being a full cupsole with the G6 they have much better support.

Skated shmoofoils for the first time today

They’re great, go on easy unlike wino slip ons but feel like skate shoes when you’re using them

how much do they stretch?
looking for some slips as chillers
but every brand i tried on was too narrow
while cool-guying is a real phenomenon, studies show that 83% of all cool-guying incidents can be attributed to the cool-guyee being an awkward weirdo

They’re the same as all the other brands but after wearing a few times to walk and once to skate the suede has formed to my foot pretty well already

They were slightly too narrow at first and a little stiff but I can feel them taking shape

In my desperation to keep skating slip cups, I bought a pair a half size down as an experiment and I’m surprised I’m getting heel slip on one foot, I’ve got room up near the toes.

Should this go as I stretch out the suede?

Emerica Servold. Been getting a lot of compliments on them. They run big though imo so I ordered another pair a half size down to skate without having heel slip or needing to wear thick socks. If you’re wearing them as a slip on, I’d say they are more secure on your foot than Romero’s or Figgy’s in the same size, but less secure than the wino slip.

So they’re replacing G6 with clittoral hoods?

Yeah I’d say it becomes more form fitting to your foot as you break it in more. Hell maybe even try another half size down? I’m usually a 12 in everything but emericas I have to go 11.5 to prevent the heel slip and foot moving side to side feeling. They’re pretty tight for the first session but really mold to my feet pretty quickly and feel more secure.

I realised after a couple days of wearing them, the heel lining being so “new” wasn’t catching my sock yet.

Feels good now, even snagged another pair
