Is the sole of the accel slim better than the one from the swift?The grip of the swift is getting flatter after about 6-7 sessions. I like the thinner sole overall but landing primo hurts like hell compared to the nyjah.
Here's a photo of the wear on my caspians. I'm primarily a low-impact ledge/curb/manny pad guy and this is somewhere between 5-10 sessions in
Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year
Yeah, that's on my mind as well. It is on sale on the Emerica site but unfortunately not available in my size at the moment. I like the swift comfort and skate wise but the thin sole is bugging me, as it has no protection at all.
Muska said the first éS drop of his shoe won’t be vegan, but he will make sure there are options in the future. Stoked on that and hoping the Creager reissue will get the same treatment

“Synthetic leather with foam padding”https://www.dcshoes.com/men%2527s-lynx-zero-shoes-191282904923.html#cgid=collabs_lynx-zero&start=1&hitcount=18
DC website has been pretty well established as being inaccurate. Go back quite a few pages in this thread and you can see multiple posts of people contacting their customer service (presumably 3rd party) who insisted that EVERY pair of DC shoes is synthetic leather.

I don’t get DC vegan labels. It’s mostly on canvas shoes like the Manual Hi but never around for canvas models of shoes like the Kalis Mid from the actual skate line. Do they use different glues or are the descriptions just off?Quote from: notmikerusczyk on February 17, 2023, 01:38:25 PMExpand QuoteQuote from: Gray Imp Sausage Metal on February 15, 2023, 04:33:49 AMExpand QuoteQuote from: sebbo on February 15, 2023, 12:54:49 AMExpand QuoteYeah, that's on my mind as well.

It’s releasing the same time as the next colorway of #420, if I remember correctly, which probably means around 7/10.

These are dopehttps://esskateboarding.com/collections/vegan/products/swift-15-black-white-royal-5101000158-890And the slim joints for the vulc headshttps://emerica.com/collections/vegan/products/romero-laced-grey-black-yellow-6102000089-038
https://shop.ccs.com/collections/globe/products/globe-gillette-shoes-black-creamNot entirely clear if the heel strip and other bits of trim are animal or synth.Design seems a little odd. I think I'd rather see a canvas/synth version of those high slip on dovers.
Anyone skates the Romero laced? They’ve got a vegan colorway in the latest drop …

@kneebone I'm not seeing the mid gillettes that you mentioned (I tried search, and just clicking back through the upcoming thread, I must be missing them somehow); please post or link here if you have time/inclination

My last were the grey canvas ones with the clear icy blue sole. Mayyybe the synthetic suede ones will feel a little more substantive but I doubt it. They have to last longer than the canvas ones tho, I blew ollie holes thru them in one 45 min curb session

Those Gillettes seem sorta interesting but why are they so expensive. It’s just a basic vulc, no?
