Only fifty quid at Snakes so I went in….
Fair enough! At that price it’s not such a bad thing if they remain a collector’s item.
Already rocked them in Tescos.

More 440v2 turned up today.
I’ve been skating in my current pair for 2 months and they’re still going strong. Probably in the grey Busenitz Pro next, they’re ready to go. It’ll be a tough choice when my current 440’s are dead. Boring but important.

Have you had to size ups in those? I had a few of the v1 but got a pair of those and were at least half a size too small
If it is any help, for reference I’m a 7 in Vans but 7.5 in New Balance, Adidas and Nike as 7 come up small for all 3 brands. So it felt like sizing up as I’d worn Vans for a while. New Balance do feel a little small over all though

Are people ordering shoes online or going into actual skateshops?
Online for me. No local shop apart from Route One, and I’m buying the same shoes really most of the time.
I got the 440v2 online, ordered my usual size as the last ones were fine but the v2 came up smaller. I’d have to go half a size up I think, same goes for the Reynolds. Got my usual size and felt a bit snug. Told myself they’d be fine but couldn’t feel my feet after a few hours in them. Annoying as now can’t return them and can’t seem to sell them to anyone!
Online, but I try to use skateshops where possible. IIRC 3/5 of the shoes I wore in the last 12 months have been SOS.
I think NBs should come with a warning to be worn first before purchase

Mine were online from CSC.
They do tend to be on the narrow side.
I don’t have anywhere near enough to buy instore so always buy online from SOS if I can.
P.S Someone please buy mine! I need the money back to buy a bigger pair!
