I really don’t want to get a shoe with his name on, but are these good?

They look like they are light, comfy and just seem like they would have good board feel. Are they durable?

They seem like the closest shoe I’ve seen to the Zoom Tre.

Currently skating a pair

There not too bad, there fairly light, think like an es swift 1.5 or something similar, they are comfortable but getting use to the rubber stuff takes a little and the look I honestly kept seeing golf balls when I’d look down that’s since passed though I kinda got use to the look and like them definitely different then most other shoes at the park, board feel isn’t too bad I wouldn’t say like a vulc shoe but not as thick as a full cupsole but not bad I’ve definitely had worse, and there not bad in the durability department the photo I posted with this is after about a month and I do a lot of flip tricks, definitely a pair that the sole is going to wear out fast then the upper I can tell but that’s probably just the way I skate or something

And yes looking down and seeing his name not once but twice is kinda off putting I mean both pull tabs have it he couldn’t have done just one? Idk all in all if you can get a pair for the low they are at least very comfortable to walk around in (about 3 months of walking around before skating them) but for skating I won’t lie I’m missing suede right now but there not the worst I’ve skated by any means

The more they wear down the more they feel like those old pink erasers from elementary school times it’s quite odd

Also anyone here tried the Leo reacts? I’m considering a pair but haven’t heard much about them

Temping with the react

Sick! Thanks for all that!

They look like they can take some abuse. I’ll go for it.

Friend of mine’s had 2 pairs, says they are great.

That Nike Free/zoom sole is one of my favourites, very light and comfortable.

Two sessions in the Ishods and I fucking hate them :rofl:

The Kyle Walkers are a little bit better but both have sloppy/looseness across the top of my toes which fucks me up. Back to AVE’s.

I don’t need shoes to last for ages, just need them to feel right.

Anyone remember my last post about free shoes was a pair of vans I got from a buddy at the park

Buddy has been at the park the past few days and had these for me today

Not a lakai guy at all nor have a even really owned a pair (other then some Carroll mids back in the day but sold them after 1 wear) these arnt too bad comfort wise :man_shrugging:

I don’t think I have ever owned or tried on a pair of Lakai.

:joy:

You’ll be ok. I promise it is more me than anything else as I’ve tried to check out a couple of different options and they don’t work for me. Likely won’t bother anyone else!

I had a couple of pairs of the old black gum Marianos with the xlk sole which skated well and lasted well, maybe 10 or 12 years back. A pair of Salfords (Danny Brady iirc?) which were vulc ok. Not sure about the newer ones but wouldnt mind trying the atlantics.

I’m not a good skater by any means but when something isn’t working, I’m REALLY shit and it gets very depressing very quickly :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Just online, they are not skate ones. Just liked the classic look. They seem to be on sale really cheap or not on sale and really pricey. I found a pair on sale, haha.

Just had delivery of these - my first pair of non skateboard trainers in literally 20 years. Just tried them on, what the actual fuck, they’re like the comfiest thing I’ve ever put on my feet.

Is this what normal people experience when they wear trainers?
