These were one of the first pairs of shoes I got when I got back into skating not too long ago and they’re still in my top 3 in terms of skating shoes. I even landed my first kickflip in them because the flick on it was so good! And they were comfy as hell the outsole insole combo is the reason I was able to skate after an Achilles injuries so many good memories with this shoe!
Nike. yeah they are pretty damn good.
Hey wow, these were my first pair of skate shoes after not skating for 17-18 years. I really liked them too. I also got a pair of Atlantics that were awesome as well. I would definitely buy another pair of those and these.
@@crkrcksteady the Atlantic is Vincent’s pro shoe, right? Always loved his approach to skating. My local had a grip of Lakai, éS, and Emerica drop for the new season. The quality difference of today’s Lakai models versus the Flare era are night and day.
Regardless, I landed my first kickflips in Mike Mo’s pro shoe. They were barely around before he left for DC. But god damn, the combo of flick, comfort, impact protection, and boardfeel puts them right up with the DC Mike Mo and Etnies Marana for being tough as nails while feeling perfect for a cupsole model.
@@ianturnbow7011 yeah. I've been skating a lot of vulcs lately but I really liked the Atlantic cupsoles. The lakai tread just doesn't last very long though.
I acquired a pair of these and they just happen to be the Pacifico collab. They look so damn clean, I still haven't rocked em yet and I don't know if I even wanna skate em they look so fresh... I typically end up skating everything tho, so its prob just a matter of time
Wow Christain shoots guns in his house… crazy. You know Dey not real
I must say this is one of the first reviews I could watch beginning to end.
Much more professional and less of that awkward comedy shit!
Thumbs up.
for real
Def wanna see more es shoe reviews and sole tech shoes and lakais. Love the channel and also review more skater owned brands!
Yeah I will 👊
@@christianflores let’s go 👊
Keep the real skate brands coming!!!
Appreciate you doing these core brands.
Same brother, same!!! I really like Christian's reviews but I only watch and care for the reviews of core skate shoe brands, don't give a damn about nike, adidas and the rest of the jock brands.
@@rioterism i agree cause i feel like non skater owned brands dont give a damn about the skaters but just want money, but i have to admit some nike and adidasshoes are actually good
These shoes are seriously some of my favorite shoes I’ve skated. The only problem I had was durability. By the end of the third week I had started to get through the out sole fully and had a blowout on my right shoe. Granted, I go through shoes very quickly, but even something like the Michelin maranas from etnies last me almost two months
I've been skating for 20+ the cambridge is definitely one of my favorite sk8 shoes of all time.
Solid, long lasting comfort, with a look that bridges the gap between old school and new.
As for the fakie inwardheel; it's just you. I'm a heel flipper and I love this shoe. Never had a problem with any of my heel tricks.
Me, a Brit.
“Tf is Cam bridge?”
Do some more lakai’s and new balance’s!!
Yup would love to see more reviews on those shoes
I love when the defined edge is flush with the suede , for me that’s when I get my best flick
Just talked about this with my buddy last night. I will take a brand new shoe and rub the toe of the shoe (where I typically flip the board) across grip tape several times to get that nice transition. It kind of hurts knowing that I'm taking away several skate-sessions away from the longevity of the shoe, but my flip tricks are too grippy and hard to get a consistent flip with thst defined, new edge.
One of my favorite skate shoes, but yeah the ankle problem was happening to me too. And pretty bad, my ankle would be bleeding all the time. But still such a great skate shoe
I skate Lakai pretty regularly and it seems that the low ankle protection is a pretty common issue in a lot of their shoes. I’ve even managed to bust my ankle open from my ankle making contact with the nose / grip over and over. It’s annoying, but I still like all the other aspects of their shoes. Next up on my list to buy from them are some high tops 😂.
Dude! Thanks for telling me yeah I don’t like it. Other then thy solid shoe for the most part.
@@christianflores Speaking of ankle support, after I ran through my pair of Cambridge’s I found some Emerica Pillars on deal and I’m loving them. Mid top design so it gave my scabbed up ankle some time to heal 😂. I think you should give them a try, they are incredibly durable. I’ve got about 5 months on them and they are holding up well. (Just swap out the laces)
I’ve been watching you non stop for a week now, keep it up man
i just started skating a pair of these and i definitely have also been destroying my ankle on heelflips with these lmao, other than that absolutely love em so far
That’s one thing i notice a lot, shoe manufacturers don’t put that much padding on the heel
Yo how did they hold up overall with the heelflips and stuff?
The best shoe review channel there is!
I got a hole in the sole of these for 3 weeks of skating and they really feel flimsy and unstructured after a week and a half or so. Otherwise i liked them a lot
This is one of the best videos you’ve ever produced. Objective facts, personal opinions, extra touches to emphasize the shoe’s strengths and weaknesses, and editing are all stellar.
10/10 review. And, there aren’t any dislikes. Hell yeah, man. I’d love to see a mid version of these puppers. Also, you’re more chilled out and better articulated than other videos. Love the vibe of the entirety of the review. Keep up the amazing work!
This dudes like paul rodriguez if he wasnt cool
You should review the vans wayvee
Why did you say predominantly like 20 times
Skated these- loved the board feel and control but the heel tab was too short for me to feel secure.
!!!Review the lakai Telfords they look like dunks and skate amazing
More éS reviews would be awesome! The OG Accel, Silo SC, Quattro, and Evant are all high up there. One question though. I fucked up my ankles and wrists skating for too many years. Why don’t you review more mid and high top shoes?
Subscribed homie. Get Dan to be your show tester and model …lmmfao Good shit
Wow, Christian shoots guns in his house?!? Crazy!
Keep those core skate shoe reviews bro!!! Really glad to hear you have nice impressions on these Lakais they are dope!!!
Yes when I kick flip and he’ll flip like above the tongue I would have like blood spots and my ankle would be like bloody and stuff so yeah you’re not the only one
wow christian shoots guns in his house crazy
IMO The best looking Lakai Shoe for a simple shoe..
just bought a pair on the shoelaces can’t wait!
Since everyone wants dunks, a review on the force 58s would be very very nice-
the alleyoop nike sb are rly close to dunks and skate great if you want a close feel to dunks
They are decent!
Good stuff man. I’ve been looking at these for a while .
I love the way these look, but me heel always slips out no matter how much I tighten the laces. It was a real bummer I couldn’t skate them.
Yo thx for the review I was thinking about getting some and your video showed up just in time lol
Highly appreciated the watching of language and some good old core shoes
I wear these and the Manchesters.....and i don't even skate! They're just damn comfortable and nice looking.
Agree. Skate shoes for old guys who no longer skate. 😆
bless up, I just skated these in the exact same colorway. saw you wearing them in another video and was excited to see what you thought of them
Was waiting for this one! Hope you review the Adidas Copa Nationale soon
Can you do a trick tip on nose slides
I disliked these shoes when I skated them. Hurt my feet and the suede wore through quick quite. Complete opposite of what you said haha
you have to do more new balance shoe reviews theyre boomin in europe rn
I will. Soon.
Hoping u hit 100k by the end of 2021
Maybe this is a shoe to cut up and compare to a vans vulc.
ahhh maybe.
Awesome vid, as always 👌
Have you seen the new Cambridge mids that were only just released a couple of weeks back? They look 🔥
Can’t seem to get them here in Oz, yet, but they’re definitely already available in the States.
Anyway, keep up the good work 👍
Will you make the Durable Shoelaces available internationally?
I love your videos. Dont stop ever.😭❤️
My man using that new g-eazy in the video
I get my ish for $20 flat at my local skate shop. And the vans are $40 flat. Hella nice
Such high quality reviews been following since 30k subs keep it up still criminally underrated
My heel feels so insecure & they start to kill the outside balls of my feet. It sucks. Anyone else?
My heels feel like I can't tell what's going on with my board and the sides of my feet hurt a little after wearing..too skinny..going back to the griffin just to see if it's a breaking in period thing
@@tmangler7812 yep. got rid of mine asap for the same reasons
Got lakai Manchester’s then switched to Cambridge and they’re my new favorites
I came to your channel to comment that you should review these and see this 3 hours after being uploaded
Lakai is goated af
I want some lakais but I feel like the smaller brands have lower quality and don’t last too long
Can you do the Joslin vulcs or the Marana slip-ons next
I usually hit my ankle when i try to heelflip and that's annoying
Review the Accel OG!
These sounded like pretty good shoes! I love the reviews Christian but please never use the flute sounding song that was in the first half of the video again, shit sounded like nails on a chalkboard
wow chris shoots guns in his house!!??? crazy!!!
How about some love for Axion? The Genesis would look nice on you
Wow, christian shoots guns on his house?!? CRAZY.
hahah got em
lol
@@christianflores hell yea, keep up the good work love your vids bro
hope u see this comment but maybe u should make different types of laces like those thick dunk laces or like different types of colors
I had a similar version of lakai , they broke in quick and felt great skating but they wore out super quick they didnt last
Same
Sounds like most current Lakais
The absorbed burglar bioinformatically settle because pain largely report as a trite cart. trashy, tawdry trousers
Wow Christian shoots guns in his house, crazy. You know they not real... But my guns are real tho
Just started inward heels .its reassuring to see others are ripping ankles on their griptape.i thought i was doing sometgung wrong but i see its common
You should review a pair of Etnies veers.
I was not good when I had those but I don’t down navy like a two stair or three and they held it down self I still not recommend number impact they were fine
Wow, Christian shoots guns in his house... Crazy. You know they not real. hehe
WOW. CHRISTIAN SHOOTS GUNS IN HIS HOUSE?! Craaaaaaazzzzzy. 😱🫣
It's pronounced Came-bridge - Keep it up and get some laces to the UK!
Hey I have a video idea, you could do a tier list of your favorite skate parts
Review the force 58 next
Can you make a military green or hunter green pair of laces?????
yoo these are so fucking nice... why arent sneakerheads on this? fuck a sb lol
Hey Christian you should review SB dunk high
Wow Christian shoots guns in his house! Crazy! You know they not real!
Is it just me or do these kicks kind of look like some adidas? Seems like they copy a lot of kicks..
vudeo 76 asking for a review of the gilbert crockett vans
Wow Christian shoots guns in his house??? That’s crazy
Lakai is my favorite skate shoe right now
emerica dickson!!! next please

Review a April skateboard
How about a review on any of these éS? Symbol, Cykle, Eos, Quattro, Evant, or Silo.
Maybe. I do want to do the OG XL lol. That shit is huge!
WOW! Christian shoots guns in his house crazy!!!
"Wow, Christian shoots guns in his house, KWAZY"
I like the shoe but wore down to the suede the first day and I don’t even flick that hard but the flick is great best shoes for kickfliping
They answered your prayers they make them in mids now saw it on the new mag
Skate the Dc Court Graffik, there pretty chunky
Woww Christian shoots guns in his house, crazyy
Loved my Cambridge’s when I skated them. Only thing I’d say is they went floppy after a while
yeah i can see that
I am hitting my ankle into the griptape when I’m doing heelflips in Vans slip-ons and that is why I dont like skating them. I thought I do my heelflips wrong or something but maybe the shoes are the problem.
Review nike sb blzr courts next

Terry Kennedy Supra’s shoe review :3
perforated, (pur-fur-ray-tid) not preferated tf
i love the cambridge shoe, but i agree about the low heel collar area, i also would add one of the loops on the heel to help put on the shoe. I like the way the shoes feel on my feet, and i find them very aesthetically pleasing. I completely agree with literally everything you said in this video XD
Yuuuuuup. I feel yous.
