Intrigued by this pop cush change... not a fan of the ultra, wrong shape and sweaty/slippery for me but think that’s mostly the top fabric
Same , apparently they also have a new rubber formula for the sole, might just be marketing though
is there some info/source for this new tech and change? Just see it switching over in some models on the vans site.
I noticed they the newer soles look more orange, which may be closer to the 'Classics' sole and I find grippier.
Half the Vans Pros ruin my feet now, so I'm hoping the Pop Cush help them fit better then they have in the last few years.
I have been skating the AA's for a few weeks now with the pop cush, honestly I won't skate anything else now. Vans nailed it with these, if you weren't a fan of ultra cush I highly recommend trying a shoe with pop cush cause they skate and feel completely different.
The only thing I have skated that can closely compare to it is the Nike SB insoles that are in the Blazers minus the annoying air pocket deal that is on the heel. Also pop cush has better heel and arch support than the Nike insoles.
I don't know what it was with the Ultra Cush but my toe would go numb and I felt like I was walking on a fucking trampoline.
