Rowans
8.125" Silvas
8" Tensor Mags
Sheet of 'blank' grizzly feels straight up like black magic (good thing)
On the Rowans:
I bit because they reminded me of the TNT SGs (I was not mistaken). Fit is true to size, not the bigger fit of the more recent shit (Berle/Crockett/TNTs); they feel the same fit-wise as my AVEs. Insole is much like the UltraCush, fat heel, slime footbed, haven't skated them but have zero expectations for less fatigue

Ankle area has fat and has mucho padding, fat oldschool Rowley Classics vibe (but with more padding) and the recent Joslins but with a thin (as in no padding) tongue (no tongue stay as it's a bootie liner). Pretty hyped on them out of the box and dig the black sans vans wave/stripe + Skate Hi stiching on the toe box gives off good memory vibes of skating the HIs all day everyday back in the day.
Rowan | TNT SGs (just gave the TNTs a refresh, delicate wash, magic eraser, fresh laces...they cleaned up well; never skated them.
