  • After skating these shoes for a few sessions I found a lot of things I didn't like and had to compromise on. Over all I would say these were as good as a lot of other vans skate shoes I reviewed in the past, this Vans skate shoe review ended with me being surprised. . . . in a good way? or a bad way??

    Thank you for reviewing this shoe. I'm currently skating them right now. I 100% agreed with the adjustment of flip tricks in these shoes. I had landed primo a few times in this shoe and I found the enforcement in the outsole to have helped my old ass feet not get rifled. 🙌🏻. This shoe is super responsive with flip tricks though. Lace configuration due to design could've been thought out better. All in all, I'm super impressed with this shoe. 😁
