Does Brayden Szafranski have a shoe out anymore. He used to have a high and lowtop out. Now neither one is on the Emerica site. Hopefully he's just coming out with a new one soon.

Yeah it's called the "SZA". There is a pic floating around, somewhere on this site

This thread still exists, if anyone wants to ask more questions. Though it's own thread would get a faster response.

I'm considering buying a pair of Fallen Coronados- can anyone tell me how Fallen shoes generally size? I wear an 11 in Vans, 11 Nike, 10.5 Adidas, and 10.5 Lakai. Thanks in advance!

I got some Coronado's. I have samples and a regular released pair. They both ran true to size to me, Only problem is you might have to size up if you have narrow feet, it's tight on the toe area. But they stretched out since i skated in it. One of my favorite shoes out right now.

Excellent Tate, thanks for the info- I ended up going with the 10.5 so we'll see if they fit well

From reading posts in this forum i have noticed that Americans (i think) all seem to have child sized feet, like us 8 or something, why is this? Are you really hobbits?

Usually 13 if vulc, 14 if cupsole for me. Us big-footers don't get half sizes.

L33Tg33k · « **Reply #52 on:** March 10, 2011, 08:02:11 AM »

I always gotta choose between 12 and 13 because 12 1/2 is very rare. It makes buying shoes online a gamble.

Great idea (in theory) that would never work (in reality). You basically just took half the Shoes & gear section and tried making it into one thread.

What are the main differences between thunder and indy, what do you like and dislike?

I skated more pairs of thunders and I'm skating my first pair of indy's.

for me thunders break easier and sometimes don't do what you want to, but maybe that's the stock bushings.

I have these indy's for over a year and I'm happy with them.

my question:

Should i buy spitfire classics or streetburners for barcelona? and why?

When do the Szafranski's come out, the one's with the bells, whistles, straps and zippers.
