Still got a couple of pairs of the Spanky G6 on ice, love those. Gotta be dropping soon right @Londonskater ? ---

Rocking some black/gum 600ā€™s at the minute, broke in nicely after a short while of feeling tight around my front right foot. Ā£45 - Ā£54 depending on colourway is a pretty sweet price for themā€¦. There is always that DTC model which undercuts SOS which is always a bitā€¦smelly. ---

I half-sized up in them (Knox 600) but if I was skating more seriously, Iā€™d probably do my normal size and let them stretch. I wanted to support Tom, who has been killing it since he was making me look like a beginner back when he was like 10 at Moorgate carparkā€¦ but I find it a hard shoe to love. The sole in the forefoot is too thick for me for good boardfeel but the shoe isnā€™t quite stable enough to be my ā€˜Iā€™m old and want to jump down a 3 stairā€™ shoe (usually Tiagos or Dunks). Iā€™ve been skating Alexisā€™ shoe when I can find them cheap. The durability isnā€™t great honestly, but Alexis is dope and the shoe skates great while it lasts. Itā€™s basically a thinner, slimmer Dunk as far as I can tell. ---

Ahh, Iā€™ve not skated mine yet and unlikely I will as I prefer the Westgates. I noticed what youā€™re saying about stability but didnt think too much of it and put it down to lack of tongue straps at the time. I did a two stair recently. Get me - hardcore! ---

I really like my 600s. Was skating 440s for quite a while but I find the 600 are pretty similar but with a bit more support which is great. I wear my usual size and they bed in great after a few skates. ---

Iā€™m the same, uk 8 in pretty much everything except adidas. 8.5 in my 1010ā€™s. ---

Yeah I went half a size up to a 9.5, theyā€™re fine. Although itā€™s weird, I seem to be going half a size up in more or less every brand now, my current Nike runners are a 9.5 whereas I always used to buy nines. But I still have old shoes that fit fine so itā€™s not my feet inexplicably growing I donā€™t think. ---

Donā€™t they have a size chart on their site? 1010s might size up slightly. Only bit that took a seasons to get used to were the ankle nodules that stop your heel from slipping. ---

I went tts and they were fine. I read so much advice about going up and down that I gave up. Same size I wear dunks and lynx in, if thatā€™s relevant information to you. ---

Surely size up and size down advice depends on your shoe size, rather than being applicable in all circumstances. ---
