They're are some exceptions to that rule tho. I've noticed Van's has some pro canvas shoes that hold up pretty well. Though suede is always the better option
I don’t know why people don’t speak about this more, but if you put super glue on all of the stitches around your wear areas, not enough to like make a bunch squeeze out but just enough to make the stitches glue to the rest of the materials. This will make it so when your stitches blow out the rest of the inside stitching will still be connected to the other materials in your shoes so your shoes wont pack out and get holes as easy
As someone who has some trouble finding skate shoes to wear, this has been pretty helpful. I wear a size 13, and my feet are wide. So, sometimes I had to order my shoes online. I could get lucky finding a pair in my size at an actual shop, but usually the biggest size they carry is 12. Also, I get so disappointed when I couldn't wear shoes from certain brands because of how narrow they are. For example, I always wanted a pair of Nike Blazers, but I heard they are narrow, which bummed me out. The big & wide foot struggle is real! Lol. This is a great video. Also, any recommendations are more than welcome. Thanks!
I can’t do Vulc shoes, I’ve skated some and I can make it work, but I just don’t feel as confident or comfortable, I find a lot of my flick comes from the upper toe cap area more so than the outsole, and most Vulc shoes are missing that cause they are so low profile and I just can’t get comfortable, I like a solid cupsole, my favorites right now are Fallen Chris Cole Troopers and Nyjah II
Aaaw I was expecting to also have content on ankle support and the tongues... don't get me wrong tho! I was digging for more info on soles and this completely hits the spot. Thanks! :)
I found DC's Court Graffik is a good shoe for me, as it offers good protection & comfort at a decent price. I like the DC Kalis Vulc as well, but it is a better walking shoe than a skate shoe in my opinion.
I remember how airwalk was a good shoe back then Now there to dam cheap these days Just wish they never change the way they made there shoes.. also vision street wear was good shoe also. I liked those vision street wear geezer shoes. But my best lasting shoes in 80s was my airwalk shoes velocity and vic's and others I had from them in late 80s and early 90s before popsicles decks was made.. yes I'm oldfart oldschool!! 🤪🤪🤪😂🤣😂🤣😂
I would highly recommend buying fake or replica Nike sb dunks. I get mine for like $40 each and when ur skating Travis Scott dunks you get so much attention.
@@itaypeper3456 suede dunk sbs are my favorite shoes to skate. Dunk sbs are just so hyped right now because of Travis Scott they’re nearly impossible to get
I’m not gonna lie I haven’t skated in 3 years and I made it my goal to get back into it but searching for shoes was hard for me. I’m a size 13 and the shoes that I want don’t have my size and the shoes out there fucking hurts. I finally found some vans but I’m struggling to break them in
Oh, I have a story.. I have a baker tattoo. OG baker deck. Because I'm a baker boy for life. That's not the story though, so here ya go.... I also have a Lakai logo tattoo for my son because his middle name is Lakai. When he was like 3 months old, his mom (my former girlfriend) and I were walking around this skateshop in Baton Rouge and she's like, "Umm, David... Why is our son's name on all this stuff?" And without missing a beat I replied, "Oh, because he's named after a skate shoe." Then her mouth drops to the floor and upon picking it up, she says, "What the hell? Are you kidding me? I thought it was Hawaiian.?!".. I think I might've said "Well, you never asked." Or something similar to that, but yeah.... True story.... Another fun fact about me: I also have a daughter with my wife and a tattoo on my other forearm for her. Her name is Bowie. Yeah. I'm David. She's Bowie. Check out our Instagram @david_and_bowie.
Fr bro. Rodney Mullen single handedly created the street skater scene we all love and gets virtually no credit. Tony Hawk's game was about Rodney's street form, not Tony's vert style. Go figure.
theres all the single shoes that are the ones worn on the back foot. usually only the front foot gets destroyed. would be a thing if the back foot shoes of other footed skaters could be matched to make a complete pair. like, a $100 new pair of shoes can be ruined in 3 weeks in bad cases...
sb shoes used to be cool, they managed to ruin them as well. Fast fashion influence skinned them down so much. Back in the day i didn't like the chunky ones but most of todays models have too little cushioning on sides and tongue.
i have hypotrophy on my left foot (this has caused me a light scoliosis) so i have to wear very cushioned shoes, i tried skating with some vulcanized rip curl shoes and they HURT, thin soles are just not for me, i just can't touch chuck taylors, so i've been skating with my air force ones and they feel soft and nice and now i know that i'm sticking with cupsoles for life on my next trip to my skateshop
14 things you didn’t know about Jim Theibaud (however tf you spell it). Seriously, who is this guy. I know he started real, but seriously, who is this guy? 🤷🏼♂️
Ex pro skater, head honcho at DLXSF, huge supporter of independent skateboard shops and best dude ever. He doesn’t do interviews, so could be tough. But definitely would be a rad episode.
This video was not the best at all. Missed out on a lot of great info for beginners. I’m sure that’s who they were aiming for. I’ll rate this video 2 out 10. I definitely didn’t learn anything in this video. 1st Starting at the title of the video, should be rename first. Second, honestly you can wear just about anything to skate; but you should definitely try to fine any kind skate shoe you can afford! Thanks for trying tho. Your other videos are on point though.
Step one: Get a job. Step two: Work until payday Step three: Watch CZcams video and read a thrasher mag. Step four: Go to shop and buy shoes. Step five: Immediately dirty them up and make holes.
IF ONLY HYPEBEAST DIDN’T HYPE TF UP THE NIKE SB’S!!! I would skate those smh
Yeah same, its so hard to cop them for retail, even if want to pay resell which i really do, theres no us 14 and great models in here Turkey
Tbh I just go on goat and look up the cheapest
@@liluzivert9934 fr😂 damn
resellers not hypebeasts
Skate the blazers or janoskis, personally I enjoy the feel, but it’s all preference. I rarely skate my dunks.
Its Simple Go to your local shop and buy some.
It’s actually hard tho because my local shop isn’t getting any stuff because of f corona
Nice to know you guys are supporting your local!! Much respect!
Wish I had one of those😭
@@shpagetti8843 What about a Online Skate Shop in Your State, Like ccs. Or if your in australia Ocd Skateshop
@@cornhole2610 Of course! Try to support the skater owned and operated shops! If you don't you'll be going to sporting goods stores to buy decks.
Lakai. Vans pros and Nike sb are always a safe bet
Not Nike for me cuz I got wide feet ☹️
Also emerica shoes specifically g6s are the same price as vans but made by skaters and much better in my opinion I love them
Good job on explaining the the various types, builds, fabrics and ware abilities. Keep up the good work 🤙🏽
Thank you!!!
Rule No.1 is don't buy canvas!

I bought a yellow checkered slip on vans I hope they last long
If they're the skate ones they'll last a long time, classics won't last a long time if you're skating them.
@@ShredzShop Oof no it's a classic slip on so I'm gonna have to use them carefully
