These shoes lasted 11 skate days.

It isn’t any mystery that Lakai is one of my favorite shoe brands. And for good reason. They are skater owned, their shoes are simple, their team is amazing, they make videos and the colorways are always on point. I’ve had a couple of the Brea’s and decided it’s time to get my shoe reviews going again. I am not a fan of the thick insole Lakai has been putting in their vulcanized shoes. I take them out and use some old sole tech insoles along with my orthodic insoles. I have never cared about insoles in shoes though. If I don’t like them I will just use some old ones that I do like (although I should note that my wife probably cares considering some insoles I’ve used for like six months straight). I always wear my shoes for awhile before skating too. I have never thought shoes should be perfect for skating right out of the box. With that said, I may have put these in the work rotation a little longer then most meaning they took awhile to break in. But it was worth it. It’s a great skate shoe. The upper never needed shoe goo which is incredible by my standards. The sole was not so durable though. The tread pattern wore off pretty quick and as you can see I eventually wore through it. I am pretty well known for blowing through shoes quickly though. I do a lot of flip tricks, clean my griptape and weigh almost two hundred bills.

Overall I like this shoe.

Maybe it’s because you tear up shoes more when you never actually land tricks? Wow I never thought of that before. Anyways, the first shoe up for review is the Supra – Sport. Stylee shoe indeed although my photo of them makes them look like crap. Fake vulcanized sole, but some weird type of cupsole that feels close enough to a vulcanized to consider skating. The first day out on these shoes spelled the end of them. I blew through the ollie area in one game of SKATE causing my toes to stick out. It sucked!Supra Footwear

The Nebraska state motto is “The Good Life” and I’m pretty fond of Nebraska these days so buying this hat was a must.Upon further inspection of the hat it’s got some famous people in the lining like Slick Rick, HR from Bad Brains, some dude from Gwar and more people I don’t know about that Sam from Meta laughed at me for not knowing. The weird thing is none of these celebrities are from Nebraska. I don’t get it. If you’re gonna make a hat with the Nebraska state motto on it, why have celebrities that aren’t from Nebraska on it? Maybe it’s because there are no celebrities from Nebraska? I don’t know. But I do know that Omaha is pretty awesome and some of my favorite people in the world to skate with live in Nebraska. Anyways, I like the hat and I’m happy representing Nebraska without having to wear anything to do with the Cornhuskers.Speaking of Cornhuskers, if you are ever in Nebraska you have to play the Cornhusker game. It’s like Slug Bug, but with Nebraska Huskers logos. Anytime you seen anything Huskers you punch the person next to you in the arm and say ‘Huskers’. Prepare to have a sore arm because entire families dress in Husker gear out there. Seriously it’s insane, half the trailer hitches on pickup trucks have little Husker stickers on them as well. It’s insane.
