These shoes lasted 10 skate days

On the cupsole tip again these days. These shoes have kind of a weird fit. The collar is a bit puffy for me and I wanted to lace one more eyelet, but it would make the shoe too tight in the collar. The board feel wasn’t great. They skated decent before the sole went flat, but once the tread was gone they skated pretty bad.

eS Square Two shoe review

I’ve had a few of these shoes. They blow out real quick. I’ve worn through the suede on the ollie toe in under three days. The soles blow out quicker than most shoes. Well, the colored soles anyways, the gum ones seem to last longer. But they are super comfy, skate great right out of the box and look good. If you don’t mind doing some shoe repair like me (super glue in some old suede in the hole or shoe goo it) then it’s a decent shoe.

Ipath – Reed Low (waxed suede) shoe review

It’s been a REALLY long time since I’ve done a shoe review. I guess it must be summer and I have more time at work, but I have a couple for you. First is the I-Path Kenny Reed Low with “waxed suede”. This shoe lasted a long time. That’s probably it’s best quality. It didn’t have the best board feel, and the waxed suede may have made them last longer, but it made the flick weird. Something about IPath vulcanized soles kind of hurts my foot too. Not bad, just a little. I’ve had the non-waxed suede version of this shoe too and liked it a bit more. Overall, it’s a good shoe for sure, not my favorite though.
