Anyone skate the 288 compared to the 440 and 1010 and have comments? I naively lowballed someone online and they sold me the Jack Curtain colorway for $42.50
Overall, compared to the 440 and 1010, it is slightly thinner all around. My favorite feature is the tongue and collar being one piece, providing a comfortable slip-on feel. Exposed EVA is nice too. They are a cupsole, so you have some stability, but I wouldn't jump down anything substantial because they perform more like a vulc. Grip is good, albeit too shallow for my preference. One piece toe lasts and the stitching helps it hold it's shape. If you've tried the adidas 3st.001, that's the closest thing I'd compare it to.
