A: true to size. I'm 5'10", bought a medium, fits perfect

Q: what's the sizing like on the breakpoint pro ox, standard cons sizing?

They fit true to size for me. They're super snug at first but break in nicely.

[Jud Nestorkins]

I just got some Cons Metric CLS and they are narrow and super stiff (couldn't try them on before I bought them).


Anyone know how to break the  in faster?

Let us know if you like them. I've always wanted to try a pair.

This has been driving me nuts. In 2011, the alien team when on a tour and this issue had a bunch of pics from it. There's supposedly 4 or 5 minute stroebeck edit that goes along with it.

I've seen the footage from this pool in cherry.

I know it's near pittsburgh (or was, it may have been bulldozed by now)

anywho, I've been looking around the internet for a few hours and can't find more info. Who can carry the torch a little further?

Not sure if its all Strobeck's footage but Terpening, Ave, and Omar have tricks at around 1:44, at around 1:09, at around 2:54, around 1:40, around 1:10. The latter are all fatback stuff, might be reused footage from each. Not exactly what you were looking for, but fun stuff to go back and watch evey once in a while. one just because

Okay. I am just wearing them around the house for a few days before I skate them but here they are on feet so you can see the shape.












Oh and even though it looks like Nubuck, I assure you that the toe is suede.

Is there a thread for the Suciu shoe?  I just got a pair in the mail, and want to know when they'll feel "more better".

Maybe a bit after break in. Honestly not a big fan of the shoe itself, mainly because of the Adiprene. I had the white/gum colorway and skated it. It's weird at first but you'll eventually get used to it. I have a pair of the all black ones too, but I don't know if I really want to skate them.

I couldn't even skate mine with the insole they came with. Made the shoe  feel almost a full size smaller.

they fit fantastic. size is definitely true.

[MC3]

I got a weird one....

Anyone ever skate an Element? What's the shape like?

Saw one for real cheap and thinking about sanding it down and repainting and/or pretending it's a Reese Forbes pro model

Yeah, I have.  I think it was a donny Barley.  It was green and had a little animal on it.

Edit:
Found it, this one.

Is this better baby?







Anyway, three times today I have microwaved them for 30 seconds, walked for a few hours, and now they are starting to feel a little less stiff.


I also put in the secondary laces, laced them real loose and one hole from the top, and they feel even better now. Not so narrow/tight/snug but still secure and my foot doesn't slide around at all.  Have to get used to the lack of board feel though seeing as my last few shoes were thin vulcs.

[shit_for_brains]

Yes it's better baby

Are those Footprint Gamechangers really that good as people claim them to be? Been wanting to try them out for a while now, I'm a bit short of money atm so do you guys suggest me to get those or should i just use that money to buy new shoes from sales rack? I want my feet to feel better...

I have a pair of size 11s barely used if you're interested. Bought them to help me with a problem with my snowboard boots but in the end ended up getting new boots altogether. Haven't used them for skating at all.

Not a fan of the gamechangers but I always run the kingfoams. Can't skate without them.

My feet are fucked. I haven't  been able to really skate in them since I bought them because of the weather but my feet don't hurt at work at all anymore and I'm on my feet all day long.

So if you still want to know, I just skated some flat and a small ledge at the bus station while waiting for the train for work and as you can see, at least for me, that hyperscreen shit on the toe is in the perfect spots for ollies.

[mynameisnotjeff]

Just in case anyone wanted to know. Picked up the Diamond All Day, went half a size down because it was the only option and it fits like a slip on. Surprisingly feels wide, my toes feel crammed but they feel good for walking. Actual midsole, not like vans with the cardboard crap. Only thing that has me worried is the tread pattern, seems shallow. Other than that so far feels good.
