Damn this is such a cool thing you got going art!

Man I wish I could get a pair of the 868!! They look soooooooo casual and cool for the mature adult skater style

I got too many shoes at the moment to run through and still haven’t touched my 533 v2 yet :'(
yes

How is the sizing on those 3? did you get the same size?
I got 868s true to size. Stiff for a day and then break in nicely. Fit perfect after a day. Thy also have very nice arch support.

Hope they fixed the sizing on the new color ways. I had a 8.5 (my size) in the black/white/red and way too small. Got a 9 in grey/blue/white felt a bit too big. I now have a pair of navy/red in 9 and they fit perfectly. I have to say these are amazing to skate in, they take a little bit to break in but it's worth it. Thinking of ordering another pair, wish my local shop carried them so I could try them on. Aside from the sizing issues these are my favorite shoes.
