Have you guys skated these shoes before? How did you find them?

Yo man. Love the videos. Watched you guys skate that garden gap ledge in Lane cove. I've tried that BS nosegrind a bunch and have never quite made it. Yours was clean!! May I ask where this park is looks mellow and clean in old now so this is up my alley 😂😂
Oh no way, yeah that thing is so long too though!
Thanks heaps man 🙏🏽
It's the new park in Rockdale, so damn fun!
thx for the cool review! good skating! where is that sweet park?
Thanks heaps dude!
That's the new Skatepark in Rockdale near Sydney 👌🏼
They look nice, greens my favourite colour.
Yeah this colour way is amazing!
Sheeesh. Love the suede. Hope i can find a pair on the thrift shop here in the Philippines. New subscriber here from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Thanks so much for the support man, Appreciate it heaps 🙏🏽
Great review thanks!
All good dude, thanks for watching!
Could you do a review of the 440 Tom Knox blue ones not the high tops
I'll have to see where I can get some of those ones dude 👍🏽
What I've experienced with shoes to skate in or what I liked was being able to feel the floor, like the tiniest rock. That made feeling the concave and controlling the board better. A million years ago I had Natas shoes and they were the worst.
That is a good thing for board feel but they ended up wearing out too quick to the point i felt like I was skating barefoot.
Definitely not good if you want to skate big drops because these shoes would be horrible for taking impact
Off topic, but what kind of black pants are you rocking? Fit looks good, I've been having a hard time finding a go-to pant after Active stopped making their Federal model a few years ago.
To be honest I think these were just some $20 jeans from Kmart lol
@@LeonPaxton damn lol those unsuspecting finds seem to work out. I like how they look slim tapered but not too tight. Anyways keep killin it bro, dope skating 👌🏼
Yeah dude and they are obviously cheaply made but that makes them a lot lighter and more stretchy 👌🏼
Thanks man, appreciate that heaps! 🙏🏼
They go hard IMO!!
Do u guys stock them??
Yeah dude, plenty in stock! 🙌🏽
Love this
Thanks dude! 🙏🏽
oh man what an awesome park you have there :D:D
Yeah dude, Rockdale skatepark in Sydney is amazing 🙌🏼
I don’t think so, I don’t really like a lot of vulcanized shoes, but I really like this shoe
Yeah this shoe impressed me a lot!
I wear 10.5 in vans but got the death wishes of these. Debating on if I should go 11? What are your thoughts?
I think they fit true to size man so there would be no need to go up to 11 unless you just want a little bit more room in your shoe
the bottom of the sole front by the ball of the foot definitely wears out way too quickly, and i wish they would make them in a wide, otherwise one of my fave skate shoes
Yeah mine ended up wearing out there a lot too man 👎🏽
@LeonPaxton yup, was corroborating what you said in this vid. there are so many great things about these shoes, almost everything, if they could just work on reinforcing that area, and making them in a wide (as NB so often does with their shoes), trying to get the word out, squeaky wheel!
Can you do a bs willy to bs smith?
I was actually thinking about trying that soon!
I imagine you would get into it the same way as the 5-0 but then dip the front truck down 🤔
@@LeonPaxton you definitely got it, keen to see it!
@@jayde850 Thanks dude! 🙏🏽
I bought these a while back and had to return them cause they were squishing my toes.
Damn that sucks, I'm glad I didn't have that problem!
How long did they take to properly break in
By the time I was warmed up the shoes felt perfectly worn in man so not long at all
he only problem was the thin sole of the shoe so the more skated these, the more worn out and thin the sole got and ended up being painful for the bottom of my feet 👎🏽
@@LeonPaxton I’ve been wearing them around for 3 days haven’t skated but they feel weird like my toes kind of feel squashed in one of them and the material feels very stiff
@@dylanlewis3668 Damn that's weird, I've got pretty wide feet and that didn't happen to me 🤔
I didn't wear them around first though. I microwaved them for 60secs and then started skating in them straight away so maybe that's why mine loosened up and wore in so fast but I do that with every new pair of shoes that I get 👌🏼
@@LeonPaxton I was thinking of microwaving them but I thought they might catch on fire haha but if you’ve done it I know it’s all sweet
@@dylanlewis3668 Haha yeah it's all good, I've done it with every single pair of shoes I've had for maybe the last 15 years and no fires or anything melting lol
💯 awesome
Thank you!
Skatepark name?
That's the new Rockdale skatepark dude 🥳
this is a goddamn skate part wtf
Haha thanks man! It's the shoes 😅
been skating this shoe for a month now i gotta say these are some of the worst shoes i’ve ever skated in first of all your feet will hurt while even walking in the shoes while skating it’s even worse next no matter how tight i tie these they always come loose the lack of support in these shoes is just awful i really wanted to like these too since they do look nice
After skating these for a few weeks I found the same thing! The sole of the shoe wears out so fast and feels like you're walking barefoot 🙄
No way he actually uses the insoles in them, even flat hurts
Yeah surely Foy uses a special insole and not the stock one that comes in it lol
