toe piece remembers of crockett 1, but the side rubber thing looks no good.
Overall I'd skate those, probably comfy

Anybody know if the g6 cupsole game’s ever came out? There was talk about them back in the spring. I think it was supposed to be a Julian Davidson color way?

The Gamma G6 by Julian is coming out in the fall sometime. Not sure when exactly but soon enough they’ll be out.

Mine arrived today- I would say TTS, a tiny bit looser than I like, but if I went a half size down they would almost certainly be too tight.

They feel good. I prefer this sole to the original busenitz but the upper isn't as stiff and so for me, they don't look as good on my feet but they look slammin in the mirror. I'm also not a fan of the elasticated tongue and I reckon snipping it would add to the shoe "piling-out" faster.

Will likely keep them as I think they'll skate amazingly and it makes a change over getting the same NB over and over again.

New KSL's are obviously a totally different shoe than the original, so they should just release it as a new shoe and not try and say it's a reissue. If they just said that's a new model and didn't put the stripes on the side, that's just a nice simple cupsole with (I believe) that good pour-in G6 midsole.

I don't have any nostalgia for the original ones, so to me that's just a new cupsole that I'm interested to try. I like that sole, but I don't like the uppers on the shoes available with it currently.

It's just a new take on the KSL with the pour-in G6 midsole. It's got some og KSL similarities and a slimmer profile.

Thanks man. Is the shoe particularly slim? I'm a wide footer so usually I have to go up half a size in some of the slimmer models. Also, does the tongue on this shoe have centering straps? Ie does the tongue always slip down to the side like the regular Busenitz model?

No worries- they're snug around the sides approx. at the balls of my feet and the tongue has elasticated centring straps.

The catalog photos definitely make the shoe look better, but the honesty of the pic at the top of the page does not make them look great, which could be production samples anyways.
Probably will need to see more photos (top down view especially) before committing to purchase, but I am a sucker for emerica cupsoles...

That cat looks shocked at your shoe purchase (and also like a good boy/girl).

Not sure if this was said in the Crockett meltdown a few pages back, but it's worth mentioning - There are no Crockett highs on the vans website. There is just one pair of the lows and it has the faux toe cap.

[jcowart]

Not sure why they don't more Crockett Highs, butt they have the white/cream/emerald on the paradeworld site

Vans Canada site has some Wayvee colours up that I don't think we've seen before. The green/floral one is a Brighton Zeuner colourway.

I try not to be negative on here, but I straight up hate EVERYTHING about that shoe

[LebowskisRug]

I concur, what a fucking atrocity.

[FROTHY]

I thought it would look alright in different colors but it's just sucking differently.

You know that type of shit that piles up like a little tiny mountain? The type of shit that’s not really clumpy, and not really loose, but perfectly in between? The type of shit that makes that distinct “pbbfbbfbfbbfff” noise as it pours out like a soft serve machine with too much air in its pipes? The type of shit that takes three flushes to wash away and, even then, leaves stains in the bowl that linger until you grab the toilet brush?

The Wayvee is that type of shit.

[newspaperparty]

the blue dime ones were the only good ones.

And justin henry is getting that all black colorway that im kinda down with but mostly because justin henry

I was gonna make a joke about “even the laces?” but I hate oval laces so carry on.


A murdered out colorway of that shoe might be neat.

lol @ vans in 2021, how do you even get that bad?

Weird to have his name in the middle stripe
