Durability: I would have to say that these shoes can take a beating. The toe area is very strong and can last you a good while and tons of brutal slides to the griptape.

Board Feel: You have losts of board feel. First day I put these bad boys on I could already feel my board right under me and didnt have to wear it in at all.

Coushining: The shoe is a wonderful shoe just to wear but when it comes to skateboarding is where it has its weakness. It hasnt been doing a good job taking care of my feet. I guess that explains the icy hot on my foot right now.

Grip: The grip is wonderful. It could use a little bit more but other than that it sticks to the board and makes it way easier to control your flips and pop.

thankyou. i have been wanting to see a review on this, and from what i now hear about the not taking care of your feet, as to taking impact, i dont want them. also, i'm digging my first pair of accels right now.

[spenser]

you must be used to thick ass shoes, because without breaking these in, they have no feel. just like every other average thickness shoe.

we have the black/grey/white ones at the shop.

[Galadar]

lol looks like accells.


and yea when i bought my thick ass felts they needed so much breaking in. they would feel like CLOGS hahah


different story with softer vulcy shoes

[bmmetcalf]

I already had boardfeel. Dont know why but I like it like that. Ya but Dookie416 they dont really protect your feet well. I am going to add just one more thing.

Overall: 6/10 I took 4 off for cousining because who really likes to skate with sore feet. The shoe is a just a simple shoe which is great. This shoe will add you tons of more time to your skateboarding of how great it will last. The shoe is a great show to wear around with your friends and hang out but into the skateboarding word? I think it could use more growing up to do.

Damn I can't use them. I need really good coushining

[McJesus]

LOL, i got these yesterday in the mail and i like em so far. Dude i like the cushinging. I landed a variel flip primo and rolled and my feet didnt hurt at all. Also i skate a lot of docks and i bet they'll hold up well if the francis' did.

[bmmetcalf]

Hows your feet? Is your couchining working well?

[McJesus]

I was also just getting over a rolled ankle when i got them.
