Bruin vs Blazer?

Personally I would pick the bruin over the blazer GT but Blazer mid wins all day

Blazer Mid > Bruin > GT Blazer > Blazer Low

regular (real) bruins, not hyperfeel or react

Can you be more specific why?
I've only skated Blazer low's and GT's. Enjoy both, but its 100% a shoe to buy on sale duo to its durability.

Blazer Mids have a better sole for one, with thicker herringbone tread, so they last longer. All the other stuff is preference.

Really can't get with Nike's exposed tongue foam, just looks cheap and ruins every colorway.

tried the react bruins but they are not for me. usual size fits too snug, half a size up feels too long and wide. weird. the insole feels comfy though. off topic but i tried the gilby highs as well and they felt very pillowy solewise but otherwise very floppy and structureless and that kind of defeats the purpose of getting a hightop for me...

Maybe this isn't the thread for you, then.

Is that your usual SB size that fits too snug or another brand? Any specific model of SB you regularly skate that you're comparing the react bruins to? I'm wanting to try the react but sizing is obviously a concern.

i usually keep a pair of blazer hi/mid around. it's pretty much my favorite shoe all around. the bruins in the same size felt pointier, the outsole was way less flexible, but the insole was very good. i could feel how my big toes would probably rub on the side, you know? bruins were a little too snug and tight in that size, overall length was ok. half a size up felt like i had to rambolace it in time. so for me the bruins fit a bit small. if you have narrow feet it might not bother you. i have very slim heels so i often have problems with heel lock whereas my frontfoot is regular/wider and that makes shoes cut as such/ low as the bruin sometimes feel off to me as well.

I appreciate the info greatly. I, too, generally always have a pair of Blazer mids around and they always start slightly snug in the forefoot area but break in perfectly for me. Same with Blazer GT and even the Janoski, although they start a bit tight before they break in for me. If the bruin react are tight in my usual size I can likely unload them on eBay for a little profit. I'm thinking about the GTS Return, too, since they are a cup and dunks are impossible to fine.

Just got the white leather Blazers sent to me last week, broke my toe in them 5 minutes in. Last 2 times I broke my toe I was also in white high top shoes, maybe I’m cursed.
