Yeah, yeah, yeah,I know… I’m Sole Teching again.
But, Wino G6 Slip Cups are the best slip ons I’ve ever had.
I found Vans heavy and stiff (I hate the soles, and dislike Vans shoes in general). I also had some Dekline slip ons from when Rock Solid distro’d them, they were surprisingly ok.

Personally I’ve had a couple of Vans slip-ons in the past but they never lasted me longer than a year.
The Vans I would prefer are just the sk8 low ones. I’ve got at least 10 pairs in those.
I’ve also got me some Etnies and DC’s.

You were expecting them to last you for a year??

This morning….
Me: ‘I’ve got some new trainers, they’re quite different to the ones I usually get’.
My wife :’They are literally exactly the same’

“Are those new?”
“No, I just haven’t worn them in ages”

Options for lying:
“They were in the sale” 🤥
“No, no, you’re thinking of those other ones” 🤥
“They’re not new, I just keep them really clean” 🤥
“I’m buying them now and keeping them to sell when the prices goes up” 🤥

Yes! “Had them for ages, just never worn them” is my go-to.
“Got them for free” or “Swapped them for an old pair” sometimes to keep it believable.

lol speaking of wives and shoes
Was just vacuuming my collection room and for some reason I left the door open
Over the sound of vacuuming I hear “are all 5 of those containers filled with shoes”
I tried fellas I tried hard to ignore it and pretend I didn’t hear
Again over the vacuum “are those 5 containers filled with shoes”
I said well there not completely filled you know boxes and what not but they maybe be filled pretty close to the top
Lesson learned: close door when vacuuming my collection room

New Tyshawn looks very banging in this colourway. Only critique would be the navy on the bottom panel at the lack, make that white and it’s a 10/10 for me!

Planning on grabbing some whenever they release a dark suede version.
Can’t abide leather to skate in.

Had an hour at the park this morning and tried these, first pair of etnies in 7 or 8 years and first pair with the Michelin sole. They felt great highly impressed. Viva la France

Yeah, I skated these earlier this year for the first time. Was into them.
Barney Page skated them in the Bulgaria video on Free Skate Mag and it convinced me…
They get renamed (and logo move, slightly) to the Barge Plus (Not to be confused with the non skate Barge LS) next season.

Funnily enough I saw Barney skating a pair. I chanced across a pair of Nike Shane O’neill’s in leather a few years ago and loved them and had been looking for something similar since.
