Bought these for my son after he went through 3 pairs of Vans Old Skool Mid Tops in about a month each. These puppies are built for abuse though, we’re 2 months in and they are holding up strong. None of the usual failure points are showing signs of stress yet. The waffle grip has no shredding, no rips on the ankle pads, toes aren’t coming unglued, everything is in good shape. Only one wishlist item is that a velcro edition would be super sweet for the little guys.
We’ve shifted to all sons bike shoes weather racing BMX,dirt jumping, street riding or downhill. The balance of grip, comfort and durability in shoe he rides, races, and then on Monday skateboards with toschool is unbeatable !
Great shoe… second pair after my son grew out of his last ones.
My son loves the feel and comfort these shoes give him
