does anyone know if we will be getting these in canada? Im assuming these are new because we still haven't got the Olive / Camo / Orange colourway here either as far as I can tell.

About a month in some 1010 tts and I'm firmly in the heel slip camp.  They're the perfect shoe but just not for me. Such a bummer.  I'll try some half size down at some point because like I said, perfect shoe, but i haven't been much for jamming my feet into 11.5s for a few years now.

Ok

I’m in a similar way, I’ve also got the heel slip. Heel lock lacing helps. I went a .5 size down, and although I skated the shoe for awhile, for me, it was too tight.
In every other way the shoe was the most comfortable. I’ll get another pair eventually, from my experience I’ll go tts and just deal with the slip. Narrow heels, my only weakness*. Nike always fits me for this reason, but those dudes are whatever.

Does anyone here know if we can ever expect to see another run of the 913s, the original Brandon Westgate shoe? It is my favorite skate shoe I've used before, and I have two pairs on ice. Just wondering if I should be making a more concerted effort to obtain any other stray pairs I can find before they're gone forever.

1010 heel slip went away for me as they broke in more
also bought a pair half size down based on a bunch of people saying they run big and they're way too small, i'd say don't bother trying .5 down

My tiagos fit absolutely perfect, are well broken in and sadly there is still a good amount of heel slip when pushing. I feel like heel pods just don't work for some people. Can't go down a size or even crank the laces down because then it would be too tight. A shame because otherwise these are literally the perfect feeling shoe.

chiming in on this discussion - I experience heel slipping in the 1010s when I wear a pair of my thinner socks (usually when it's really hot out). When I wear beefier, more cushioned socks it seems to be better and not really bothersome. Maybe it's all in my head but might be worth a try. I'm surprised how much I enjoy skating these shoes!

Changing insoles helped a bit. Going from the stock to a slightly more substantial Adidas made it better, and a Cons insole basically fixed the problem but I'm just so high up then. There probably is an ideal insole/sock combo that may make it manageable.

Depending on how dedicated you are to 1010s despite the heel movement, you could try these Stable 26 socks. I used to use them for ice hockey, since avoiding heel slip is a big thing in that sport as well. They have special pockets under the ankle bones for silicone inserts(various thicknesses) that really snug up the fit depending on your heel width.

Granted, they're not cheap and I wouldn't expect anyone to the same pair of socks everytime they skate. But options are out there if you really want them.

From $26 down to $10

Also, looks like the heel padding could help reduce ankle pain from getting hit by your deck?

...or maybe that's just an issue I have with missed popped tricks?

One time I went to one of those indoor trampoline places and they gave me some socks with grippy pads on the bottom.

I wear those socks with shoes I have that are a little too big. Seems to help battle against the heel lock in the 1010s, for me.

Yeah those heel lock pods. They don't work very well for some people though. I think in general pods like that don't work particularly well for my foot. SB Dunk lows included. A nice normal collar fits me and many people much better

I feel like having those pods actually pushes your heel away from the heel cup instead securing them

For some reason, a lot of the heel lock pods built-in to the shoes seem to flatten out super quick for me.
