  • Leo Bakers New Shoe is one that Came out of nowhere for me, but Im glad I skated it. I gave me a chance to feel something different that ended up being good, but not before I struggled with them.

      I have a few shoes on ice and started walking on my pair. They feel good and your foot feels locked in. I love ‘em.
      The sale hopefully makes it more accessible for people and they get hooked on it so it stays around for a while.

    What helped me putting them in is taking my laces out and putting them back in after my foots in the shoe, they're probably the best fitting and feeling Nike I've ever had

  • @MrMugampi
    @MrMugampi Před 3 měsíci +2

    That insole is actually a drop-in midsole, so you’ll feel more impact in your brand. This wasn’t a good shoe to highlight your insoles. Cause it doesn’t have a real midsole.

    • @christianflores
      @christianflores  Před 3 měsíci

      Hm. What do you mean real midsole? The midsole is a “vulc” so it’s super thin. The insole it came with is that hard react insole. I just drop my insoles in almost all my shoes unless it’s built like a Tiago. lol

    besides them being a pain to get on I love these shoes thy have good board feel and I can wear them all day. I would say the rubber helps tehm last longer but yeah the flip tricks took a bit to get used to but once you get em down they are pretty great.
    I will say I do more vert skating so the issues wite=h the flip tricks arent a deal breaker to me

    Imagine having to unlace a mid top shoe with shoelaces in order to get them on. It's not a slip in or a shoe with a quick lace system.
    It's a roomy shoe and the react insole (is super fricken cushy) makes up the entirety of the midsole, did you try stacking your thinner insole on top?

    • @christianflores
      @christianflores  Před 3 měsíci

      That is my point. I don’t like having to untie my shoes all the way to put them on. I wear the adidas form 84s a lot because they are a MID top and I don’t have to untie my laces.
      Insoles is not “cushy” at all for me. Shits thin AF. lol if your skating in them with low impact stuff then yeah it should be chill but if your planning on jumping down anything. Not good. And I don’t put mine on top. I don’t think there would be enough room. But I would try it if I was still skating them

    You take the insoles out of almost every shoe which largely makes reviewing them pointless.

    • @christianflores
      @christianflores  Před 3 měsíci

      Yeah dude. Stock insoles in shoes sucks. lol. Unless it’s a 1010 or a 808. Or another shoe with a fat outsole. The insoles don’t really help. That’s why I made the insoles I use. Spent 2 years making it. Definitely going to use it. And that tells you if you like board feel then you will like the thinner shoes. So yeah . . But you right. Super pointless. Lol

      Formerly known as Lacey Baker. They transitioned to a guy. They wanted Leo to skate the Olympics as a woman and Leo turned it down. Because they wanted to put him in with the girls. I didn’t know that either
