Jesus Christ, I hope I don’t see a pair of half cabs for 10 years. I know it’s an anniversary but damn, way to shove something we love down our throats so much, it’s enough to make me gag.

How do the Samba ADV differ from regular Samba?
[close]

Not sure if there’s any durability upgrades, but the tongue has elastic straps to keep it centered and snug. That’s the biggest difference.

If they're the same ones from 2017 called samba adv a few people actually said they were worse than regular sambas durability wise. The T toe isnt double layered
[close]

The Samba ADV is different than that one. That one was terrible and looked like shit. To be honest there's not much difference at all between OG Sambas and the new Samba ADV. The tounge is slightly more padded but still not much and there's tongue straps. This is coming from someone who owns several OG Sambas and runs a shop that sells Samba ADVs.

Thanks bud! So I can just skate the regs? The ADV are really hard to find oddly.

Yeah I skated the regular ones a couple years back. They skated good. The leather was kinda soft and didn't last super long, but the leather feels the same on lots of the ADV. I swapped the soles out because they're quite thin but that's just personal preference. The insole doesn't really seem any thicker in the ADV.

TL;DR: Ya man.

Does Adidas have a shitty supply chain? I'll see the Samba ADV, Campus ADV, and Busenitz Vintage in like one color but it's always mostly out of stock everywhere. I don't want the dead ass heel and tongue of the Busenitz

Can anybody chime in on how the Crockett highs fit width wise?  My foot is a little wider.  Vans old skools fit great, but some of the others I have tried were a little too narrow.  Thanks
I have wider feet too and they fit me great

No, Adidas probably just doesn't give a shit about skateboarding.

It's been a few years but they don't even label the skate shoes as skateboarding anymore in Aus. They're just originals. People think the busenitz is some old soccer shoe from the 70s.

My feet are a little wide and yeah the crocketts are probably the best fitting skate shoes I’ve owned.

Anyone know how the fit on the samba adv compares to the fa experimental Adidas. I have the white/blue ones and the dark green/brown ones and I really like the way they fit. The sambas look pretty similar.

Edit: Can anyone tell me if sambas fit similar in the toes? thats really what im concerned about

I'm gonna be really sad if all these crazy one offs oversaturate the rest of the Half Cabs. Those solid '92 colorways should be staples and I'm already seeing way less of them out there.

I get it- 30 years of the Half Cab, trying to stylize winter shoes, etc., but Half Cabs are the weirdest choice. I have rarely ever seen them on non-skaters and the Vault line nerds probably don't even wear shoes for fear of resale value. I know that VF likely doesn't give a fuck about making shoes for skaters, but I have to imagine team riders at least asking for more versions.

Don't worry Vans know what we want. Can't wait for the all over print with Thrasher written in flames and the high demand pro model Elijah Berle version with barb wire laces!

Vans is like that rich kid that got PlayStation way before everyone, wouldn't let anyone play it but doesn't get why people aren't psyched for them.

Had an idea but haven't seen them in person. Somebody get the boys of summer Carroll's and shoe polish around the clear foxing and top of the tongue so you get some black Carroll's with white lower tongue and white bumper at the front (or you could black that out too)

I’d have to raid Sam Smyths Halloween closet to find that much blacking polish

Weird, never seen those. All the other listings seem like random cycling gear and some astro-turfs, then all of a sudden some  Gore-Texual Puigs. Couldn't see any sample info on the shoe so maybe it's coming soon or was some mad limited release that never made it to skate shops.

Honestly to me the Carrolls look kinda nice at first glance but I can't get over the bulky high top part. I get why it was there in 1993 or whatever, but in 2022 I would want to see that a bit thinner (like a Jordan maybe)

The lack of wallabee-inspired skate shoes (post i-path) has always perplexed me. I'd like to see a cupsole with the faux-crepe texture like the cats had.

Not quite but it's a cupsole but low. Soz can't be bothered scouring for a proper colourway but I've seen them in suede before

Can’t tell if these are sick or weird. Also is it Japan only or unknown?
