How much padding does the heel have by the Achilles tendon? I have messed up heels and can’t do shoes without padding there like the vans authentic or converse chuck Taylors. I want it, but I might have to wait for the non knit ones.

@ShredzShop

2 ай бұрын

There's actually a lot of structure back in that zone, with the TPU plastic guard holding the heel. I don't think they'd be a problem for that. Only part that lack padding is the top of the foot (no tongue, so no padding there). But if it's something you have series problems with, maybe try a pair on at your local shop!

I miss early 90's-2000's skate bulky shoes like Vans TAG XLT, Rowley [XL3] , Dustin Dollin, Jim Greco, Tony Trujillo OG TNT, Willy Santos, Chad Muska, Bucky Lasek and Liam Neeson. I miss those times no social media were just skate all day and physically socialize to people.

Heelflips absolutely decimate the completely fabric ankle area.

I love the tech in there, but I don't super love how they seem pre-distressed aesthetically. I'm currently skating a Vans Lowland, even though they are decidedly not skate shoes and I've been skating a shoe-shaped pile of shoe goo really; a couple ollies deleted the toe stitching on day one. I've always liked the idea of Vans more than the reality because they just aren't durable, even the old pro-line. I used to love the Cab 5 back in the day when I wasn't skating DVS, but I really haven't landed on the shoe I feel good in since I got back into skating this past year.

@ShredzShop

@@ShredzShop I like a shoe with a good puff, but my wife decidedly does not lol; I've had minimal luck convincing her these are "sporting equipment" because I just wear them all the time. The Rowley does look cool, but they don't seem to stock them locally to try them on, and I'm just so gun shy of spending that much on a Vans product hoping for the best with the backlog of them being made of paper I've experienced for decades. At least in the early 00s they were cheaper than the competition so you could sort of justify it.

A bit expensive at $140 over here in Sweden. But if I was a better skater I would try them out. My Footprint Decenzos work for me.
