Today's working shoes.
Love this cw but the shelltoe flick is so weird.
Also, these ones keep popping out my ankle. That runner heel lock helped a lot tho.
[close]

Amazing colorway, terrible terrible build / use of materials . Probably the worst skating / feeling pair of superstars that been put out in a longtime . The tongue is just terrible .
[close]
Sadly, you're right on everything :(
[close]

Has anyone figured out how to DIY make the tongue not suck/fall down? I also have a pair that are annoying as shit to wear.
[close]

there's that lace loop on the tongue and you can take the laces from the row above it and put them through that loop, it will pull the tongue upwards and they will feel more secure when skating but the best solution is to get regular superstars instead of the adv version
[close]

New versions of the ADV Superstar have gone back to a normal padded tongue it seems, so thats at least a step in the right direction
[close]

that's good to know, they skate fine but the thin tongue makes the whole shoe look off, which is weird because they also make those non-adv superstar 80s with thin tongues and that model looks totally normal

The pair i have don't have the tongue lace loop, but do have centering straps. I'm thinking to just cut my own lace loop on the tongue to try it out because they are almost unwearable with how annoying it is.

Just finished skating these, the reissue of the Emerica Reynolds 3 with the G6 insole.

Great shoe but a little too thin. The G6 insole helped a little but ended up cracking at the end, becoming a painfull around the ball of my foot. Also had to shoegoo the ollie area before it started to rip my socks.
Ended up going through the sole, so it's finally time to put them to rest.

Now preparing for the NB Reynolds 933, kinda a total opposite shoe from the vulc one.

Really exited for this one, it's been a while since I've skated a shoe this padded.
And lets see if all the protection really makes a difference in how I feel after skating.

Showing Areth some love. These skate great but I can see myself changing the laces up. I don't care for round laces.

Not as laid back a vibe as Jim and Dan but I tried to show some respect. Only NB I've tried is whatever foy was out like 6 years ago and didn't like them, but also, I've only been buying Vans I find at Ross most of the time. Better late than never, love them. Super comfy. Was afraid of the insole arch at first but goddamn, love these.

Rocked Japan Pro MT (white/black) the last few days casually and they are quite nice ! Decided to skate them today because of that. Was pleasantly surprised for my first Asics pair!

Looking forward to breaking them in more and seeing how well the leather softens up. Sole feels a little hard at times, but not uncomfortable. I see why people like em

Jordan 1 low prm  Only thing I don't like so far is the insole is not removable so I can't swap it.  Some of you wouldn't like no tongue straps but there is absolutely 0 heal slip and decent toe height in TTS.

From that perspective they really look like Lucas first Adidas shoe.

I was pleasantly surprised by the LL2. I’m not generally a huge cons fan but the quality of the material and how these fit really impressed me.

I really jacked my ankle 15 minutes into skating these.
I felt like the sole was really hard and was having trouble getting a good flick out of them, then boom folded and was out for 4 months. I've tried to wear them around again but they aren't really a comfortable shoe to just walk in.

^ dope pair.  Kinda regret buying the GT Lows instead of those haha.

Got these off GOAT for a great price, first pair of SB Dunks.  I stopped wearing skate shoes as chillers long ago, but these kinda work for everything.

Shout out to Cassette! Ordered my normal size and they fit perfectly. I think CCS/Daddies and Adidas were the only online shops with them when I looked for these in black, so I bought these immediately when the 50% off Adidas sale was posted. My only regret is not snagging the Gonz button up to go with these.

Although I haven’t skated them, I’m stoked on them because I had to stop buying Vans Slip Ons. The tiger camo and gray/gum ones have been tearing skin off my right heel, even though I never had that issue with previous pairs like the blue or checkerboard ones in the past year.

Finally found a pair of JS1s in my size, missed out on a pair on eBay maybe a year ago, but Poshmark redeemed me...

Bonus: Zelda made it into the photo, enjoying a snoopy...

We'll go 4 for 4 this week, maybe do a 5 for 5 next week...

Another one I'd been looking at for a bit but didn't want to pop on retail or use StockX, copped 'em off a homie on Depop for a Grant...

Big thanks to the reincarnated lord King Haile Selassie for people buying shoes for their significant others and them not fitting, it's like Golconda Fort for me...

Kalynx Nocturnal collab...

I got stiffed on a pair from Poshmark a couple weeks back, the seller never shipped them, but low-and-behold someone else pops up the day after the order was canceled, ironically with the same size too...
