Shoes

Not sure why you’d not just use the webbing loops.

Sometimes the shoe’s real close, but just needs more lace holes.

For some reason I always wear through webbing loops.
And I just think shoes look better laced through holes.

Haha, state of some of some of the shoes in this thread idgaf. But yes, went for something a bit less G-Unit instead.

Cor. Just imagine the calf muscles you’d get dragging them DC’s around.

New Leo Bakers.
I dunno, remind me of them honking Omar Salazar shoes.

It’s that arch stripe above the swoosh that makes them a bit too ‘back to the future’ for me

I quite liked the Salazar, not enough to buy a pair though.

I had to look at those monstrosities on the shoe wall for so long.

I remember I wanted to buy a pair of Omar’s so bad (bc I love him) but they were so stinking I just couldn’t!

These Leo’s look cool tho

Omar Salazar’s shoe was basically a 6.0.

Possibly worse, why do I remember it having some kind of space theme.

Because it did!

I’m guessing in reference to that futuristic (at the time) FlyWire stuff Nike were using.

I skated the Salazar shoe a lot. Was a fan.

Yeah I liked the Salazar too. Tbh I’m a bit of a fan of all the weird not a dunk Nike SB stuff.

I second this
They have many nice models other then the dunk
I wish they would hurry up with ishod 2s

Decided to try the new Figgy shoe, alongside picking up another pair of Spanky’s before they go forever.

G6 sole is so good. I could never ever go back to a vulc now aside from the pair of vulc slip ons I have as house shoes.

How do they skate?

I’ve only skated the Figueroa since they came out, had a pair of the Dose but then switched back when they reissued the first ones. Ideal fitting skate shoe for me

I have no idea yet, I’ve only worn them round the house for a little bit to be sure that they fit ok.

All I skate/wear are the Wino G6 slip cups and the Spanky G6, love those. The fit is closer to a slip on, but with more structure.

Same sole as the other shoes mentioned above so I’m used to how that feels.

Had to return the last resort cupsoles, they were so heavy there’s no way I’d ever skate them, not that they aren’t great shoes they were not bad but I couldn’t get past that weight issue

Meanwhile one of my local skate shops has found a new way to embarrass themselves
