Urban LDP shoes
I've gone through tons of different "skate shoes", but all of them could never stand-up to the rigorous abuse of heavy foot-braking required in urban commuting environments. I've foot-braked the crud out of both of these shoes for 3 months now and upon inspection, the soles look barely used (by contrast, though, the uppers look a little tired). They're like brake pads for your feet. The shoes are roomy enough once I remove the insole to fit my orthotics without altering the original fit. I agree that they are a bit heavy, but for the durability of the soles, I can overlook that. They look stylish as well.

Loved them when I skated because it had amazing grip
Used to wear these as a young kid when I used to skate I loved them until my dog completely shredded them I literally fell to my knees and almost cried and my dog was in front of me just wagging her tail the beauty of an animals innocence

pretty good casual sneaker. as a skate shoe? maybe not.
i like these ok. they are just a fuzz on the big side, but i can deal. i love the design. the heel box is nice and deep and pretty solid while allowing for free movement. there is also a decent counter patch on the heel...impressive! also, the sole is a good, solid design without stupid gimmicks. the ollie pad reminds me of vision street wear i had from the 80's. rad.the drawback i see as far as being a good skate shoe is that they are pretty clunky and slightly heavy. it's been decades since i've been in the bmx/skate scene, but i would think a fella would want a lighter shoe than this....still, it's a pretty solid shoe that should serve you for a season.get out there and have fun.

I got these as a christmas present for my boyfriend as he really goes through skating shoes and these have held up pretty well despite him skating for hours on end everyday. he also says theyre comfy enough to wear everyday!

What shoes used to be.
Well made shoe. This shoe is built like shoes used to be built. It’s stiff for a few days and then molds to your foot. The sole is no skid and wears slowly. This shoe was built to last.
