Love the Crocketts but wish they had a bit more support.[close]I've skated both (Crocketts highs and lows) and prefer the 440s (both highs and lows). The Crocketts are just too stiff, especially on top of the big ol pop cush insoles. The 440s are more comfortable and break-in in no time at all. The collar of the 440 highs are supportive and you can adjust the level of support based on which eyelet you lace up to. The 440 high has beaten out the Blazer, Crockett, and Tyshawn mid for best skate high top for me.

Hopefully these arent too bulky feeling. Either way they’ll be some good looking chillers[close]i'd be very surprised to hear anyone describe the 425s as bulky. it could happen but i'm having a hard time imagining it so let us know

Can anyone who has tried the 1010 and the 808 compare the fit in the toebox for me?Been curious to try the 808, but i had to sell all my 1010's becuase i couldnt stand the toebox anymore.the width and length were fine, but i felt like they were too short height wise. kinda squishing the tops of my toes.

I can’t imagine you liking the 808 if you had problems with the height of the 1010s’ toebox, unless you size up .5 or 1. Then, you’ll probably have problems with heel slip unless you swap out the laces and use the top eyelets.

Love the Crocketts but wish they had a bit more support.[close]Crocketts have better impact protection, less boardfeel, and are overall a softer, more flexible shoe.440's have worse impact protection, better boardfeel, but are overall a bit stiffer than the crockett. I prefer the 440, but i would highly suggest replacing the insoles with some of the thin FP elites
Do the 440s skate similar to Vans Sk8his or oldskools?
Long time listener first time caller. Just picked up a pair of 1010s today in a size 9. I daily a pair of 990v3s in an 8 and they are basically the only shoes I will purchase / wear. The 8 and 8.5 1010s were both insanely tight. Breaking in the 1010s now and have some arch pain but I have a flat foot so probably just adjusting. Love everything else about the shoe so far but wanted to see if anyone else had the same experience as me with sizing up. Am I gonna be cooked once they stretch / pack out?
The 440 highs are great, but if it hasn't been said before, those soles are absolute hot garbage. Barely lasted a few weeks.

I find the extra space just grabs the board and my flick is off.

Knox pro shoe looking pretty sick
Y’all need to CHILL. The Reynolds shoe is a long ways away. Sneaker development is a 1-2 year process. That’s the Knox shoe.
