Fallen

[Skwisgaar Skwigelf]

Is there anyone on here that's an adult or at the LEAST 18 that wears Fallen and likes them? I'm just wondering. I've always ridden Fallen since I started skating (except for a pair of J-Lay Vans my bro gave me because they ended up being too small for him). I have Emerica Reynolds 3s now and I absolutely LOVE them, of course. But Fallen seems to get the rep of being a kid's company. Wondering if there's any adult skaters here that wear Fallen, because I've never seen that haha. (The Fallen team doesn't count, obviously.)

Awesome shoes.  They're durable, have great board feel, grip well and are comfy which is all I ask for in a shoe.  And honestly, if someone is judging me by my shoes, that person is a kook to begin with.

Yeah, these Emericas don't have any more feel to them than any of the Fallen vulcs I've own. I had a pair of Trooper 5250s but they didn't have so much board feel because of the beefed up gel heel and full-length latex layering through the sole, for stairs and stuff.
Judgement-wise, that's pretty much how I feel. I just hate how the little annoying eleventeen year olds have ruined Fallen for the real guys out there.

Have you looked into the transworld website?

No I haven't. I go to the Thrasher site, though, rarely.
But I haven't ever really been to the TW site. Why?

And you should change that avatar with the 12 year old and the creepyass smile or people will think you're a pedophile. 
This is a legitimate question I'm posting here. No need to be belligerent with me.

I got a pair of Forte's yesterday since they were on sale. They're a little stiff and tight around the toes, but they aren't broken in yet.

Lemme know how those work out for ya.
They're the only Fallens my 28 year old brother will even consider buying, besides the Loker for a slip-on chiller.

And Lil Wayne wears Supra. And he gets to be in jail.
Disney movie > Jail.
Cube was also in NWA. That's gangsta as fuck.

ive had soo many pairs of fallens. they last, they look good, and they always skate great!
i want to send blackbox an email and see if i can get a free pair just for buying soo many like when you buy soo many slushies.
my problem with them is usually it doesnt do much for my heels, but the last billy marks pair i had was perfect all around.
people wont want to agree but adio also makes good shoes. you put them on and they are ready to skate but most of them look horrible these days.

the shop i go to doesn't have fallens. I'd be down to try a pair if possible. i had a couple pairs a few years ago that i recall liking, though.

[HubbaAdsGiveMeBoners]

Been down with Fallen since...

Poison is one my favorite bands.

Goddamn those things are tanks.
I couldn't skate the classic Fallens. WAY too bulky. The Trooper is the template I use to tell people how far of bulk I'll go with a shoe. No farther than the Trooper's design. I'm REALLY tempted to try a pair of SLs. But I dunno if they're vulc. It doesn't say they are on the Fallen site.

Im pretty curious about how Fallen does in different areas. Seems like the only things skaters are buying at the shop im at is Nike or Vans, with the occasional emerica or adidas. Never Fallen. Anyone see it differently?

I see people skating fallens pretty often, but then again I'm also in Chris Cole-land.

I posted this in another thread, but I'm not really a fan of these fallens, so if someone wants to buy them for 20-25 dollars, they're up for grabs.

...Uhhh, because I... like their sound? I'm not sure how to answer this, even though it's a sarcastic question.

For the most part, I've seen that anyone under the age of sixteen has a pair of Fallen on. Also, the fat kids who shop at Hot Topic, especially Juggalos, like to buy them. (No hate, though. I used to like the "bulky" ones around 2004.)

Where did Fallen's demographic marketing go wrong... 

[El Venado Zombi]

It has nothing to do with marketing. It's just the fact that there's a Zumiez in most malls.

fallens are some of the best skate shoes.  i got a pair of fortes that i fell too much in love with to skate though, so im going to get slash's shoe to make up for it and skate those.  jamie knows what he's doing.
