I’ve had two pairs of them as they’re wide and I have problems finding wide enough shoes. I won’t get another pair though, the tongue in particular is too puffy. I haven’t tried trying to make it less puffy by taking out material. I feel silly in my Penny shoes lol. They are very comfy though! I’m going to go with something low profile for my next shoes like the Cons chuck CTAS.

Don’t take the tongue stuffing out unless you don’t mind them looking super weird

Today’s trousers are almost baggier than ever I’d say! One day I’ll stop moaning about how they’ve made the ‘OG’ massive and try the slims, maybe.
Anyway, hopefully we’ll see how they look on the man himself. If the proportions are similar to those he has on here it’d be great:

I know, but you look at that photo and it’s boot cut hell. Keep waiting for the Cobra to pop up. Is anyone wearing that now?
When was the last footage of Arto released? Did he have any pro level stuff after Mindfield?
He had some bits in New Balance videos and a few things in Volcom Holy Stokes, maybe.
Seems like he moved back to Flip just as he became a professional photographer.
The slims are a good shoe but the sole is too thin for me. They’ve aimed to make a cup sole with the board feel of a vulc and succeeded - feels like a thin layer of cardboard. Would be worth getting some better insoles perhaps

These days I swear by the G6 cupsole. I’ve got 6 pairs of the Spanky G6 now, love love love it.

Last couple of clips of him skating that springs to mind for me. One of the all time greats.

There was some surf-related video kicking about recently which was interview with him and he implied he doesn’t skate any more.
Don’t believe it until he starts posting on here

Ha! I’d rather a longer toe box over a stubby one any day. They don’t look/feel that big in person.
Kind of look a bit like slimmed down Converse ERX low tops. Not bad.
Stinking unfortunately. Dope she has a shoe though!
Oh they do!
I remember these in like a UK11. Was fucking mind boggling.
I like it. In forum speak, it’s giving me New Balance 550 vibes.

Agree. I think they look at bit TK Maxx in the photo. Will wait for full judgment until I see them irl.
