Customer Reviews

nice skate shoe5
These were for my son who skates non-stop. I am always looking for good quality shoes at fair prices and these were it. He says that they are very comfortable. The leather will need a bit of polish from time to time, only because with skating they get banged around faster. I just use Vaseline. As with any shoe used for skating, expect these to last about 2 months. (The grip tape surface on the top of skateboards wears the sole of the shoe down faster.) If wearing them for everyday, that obviously extends the wear time.

Overall very good shoe.
I got it in the Red colorway, and when I got them they felt a little oversized but, after about 2 to 3 hours of walking around in them they conoured to my foot and felt very comfortable.

I have been skating them for about 4 to 5 weeks now and they are just getting a little bit flat, around the big toe and the point just below the toe. The upper is normal suede, nothing special about it, the perforation does not affect the durability in the least, it just adds a bit more of ventilation.

They have great upper support in the heel, like around the ankle and heel, they feel almost like a mid top, and the gel heel in the SOLE helps a little bit, but not enough to make a difference. They are fine for skating gaps if you dont mind very minor heel bruises. In comparison to the half cab "syndicate" Black-leather ones I have, they have great protection. The sole is very flexible and does not snap bakc into place like some other shoes I have had. Another feature of the sole I liked was the fact that it was wide, Since I have wide feet this was a major plus. The outsole was okay about 6/10 for durability, After three weeks you could see the black sole through the white outsole.

The only Qualm I had with the shoe was the poor lace placement. It was almost directly above the stitched toe, The laces became badly frayed after the second session and snapped after the third. but only the lace in the first loop snapped so its not that big of a deal.

Highly reccomended if you have a little bit of extra cash, and need a good reliable pair of shoes.
