Dude your vids are getting better and better..anyone would be crazy not to pay you good money to make there videos..been watching for years and your at another level..I was impressed and it takes a lot to impress me..nice job brother and God bless:)
@@christianflores just being honest..if it sucked I'd tell you that also!..lol..I think alot of times,when it's you making progress,you don't see it...trust me..someone's watching your progress..someone with $
Thank you for reviewing this shoe. I'm currently skating them right now. I 100% agreed with the adjustment of flip tricks in these shoes. I had landed primo a few times in this shoe and I found the enforcement in the outsole to have helped my old ass feet not get rifled. 🙌🏻. This shoe is super responsive with flip tricks though. Lace configuration due to design could've been thought out better. All in all, I'm super impressed with this shoe. 😁
@@christianflores I'm pleasantly surprised with this shoe but I wouldn't get them again either as a vulcanized shoe is more for the 5 tricks I do over and over along with the curb creature I have become at 46 years old. 🤣.
Great review as always. I got the all black with the white wave but the foam was throwing me off after a while skating the shoe. It took ok impact but they stopped being comfortable as I skated them more so I honestly have them away to my homie.
The insoles has to keeping on skating and customizing the shoes of foot support and reaching the highest gap in durability and beyond the limits of skateboarding materials and impact protections length.
I see you have your laces on there. What length are they? I grabbed the wrong size the last time and want to get a fresh pair when you get em back in stock?
Looks like a clothes similar to AVEs, which don't have enough cushioning, too-thin walled, no protection, and too narrow\tight. I have slightly inward bending bigtoes now permanently from them.
I got the zhaba shoe for like $60 and personally i think they are great, i think their exterior build could be better, i like how it looks but mine tears up fast, but the interior comfort and impact absorption is among the better shoes ive skated
My local skateshop had a bunch of the vans x alltimers collab of this shoe for like 35$, and they might be my favorite shoe I’ve skated, the alltimers version is all leather upper with Duracap on the toe and seem to hold up a lot better then the regular zahba, if you want a pair of zahba I’d say grab the alltimers collab while they still on sale at shops
@@conrad520 I mean sneaker history and skating history are 2 different things. But I'm sure people were already skating Chuck Taylors back then. Vans are just one of the first companies to make a concerted effort to capitalise on the skate market, but skaters were already skating vulcanised shoes.
I bruised both heel bones / damn near broke them. Currently can’t skate and was wearing these shoes when it happened. Aka…false advertising from Vans. Also their toe cup is small for my wide. They hurt. LOVE ZION won’t rock the shoe anymore.
@@christianflores Simply just going fast in a bowl/pool. Something I’ve done a million times. My wheels slipped when they shouldn’t have on the vert (about 8’) and I thought I ran out of it, but apparently my feet hit the flats. Still can’t skate yet 😮💨.
I cannot understand why a skater who’s probably in his 20s (I know nothing about pros) agrees to a colorway that make the shoe a hot candidate that my dad might accidentally buy it, thinking it’s a hiking shoe for retired ppl. Plus, no vegan variant as far as I can see. Bummer. Here’s an idea for new shoe review: new fallen trooper (not vulc) or revolver
Hi dude, I own you a bear. I watched your video on the best shoes you reviewed and I bought an Adidas tyshawn and it is really nice. Not a lot of shoes come here to Brazil but this one was available. You are doing an amazing job reviewing all those shoes and I can say now that I fully trust your reviews. Thanks so much!!
I have a sincere question, can you review the DC Teknic S every review I get is in literal Russian or is nonexistent. I think it looks cool butI really trust you and for the 20 years I've skater I never actually owned a pair of DCs somehow
Vans keep getting uglier and uglier. God damn. I feel old. The no skools we’re kick ass. The big swirl on the Knu Skools look like a child’s kohl’s school.
Whenever I hear 95% recycled materials I know the shoes will definitely not last. I mean can we just make a good skate shoe without worrying about the planet for once
$100 for a shoe that you’re gonna skate in is already insane. Unless it’s some new technology that can make them last for over 6 weeks I’m gonna keep sniffing out sales online.
@@christianflores well this is one thing, it might be different on other colorways because it's just the exposed midsole foam on the inside. But that thread looks like it would pick up all kinds of trash, imagine stepping in mud with these by accident. Also in the back it looks like whole parts of the thread could break out of the sole, if you loose one rhombus those are done..these connectors don,t seem very strong. But maybe that's just visually
I have had christian's shoelaces for more than a year now skating them on and of and they still haven't broken. I tend to rip shoelaces pretty easily and usually have 2 eyelets left of shoe lace by the time the shoe is done. You prolly didn't even buy them dude, but you definitely should!
We need the insole, when it’s gonna be done 😮
Probably, in the "next few months"
God I hope sooooo! 👊 gotta make it perfect.
@@christianfloreslooking forward to it 😁😁
Dude your vids are getting better and better..anyone would be crazy not to pay you good money to make there videos..been watching for years and your at another level..I was impressed and it takes a lot to impress me..nice job brother and God bless:)

Nice. Yeah a lot of people hated on them. I kinda liked them but also was kinda not hyped on them. I wouldn’t skate then again
@@christianflores I'm pleasantly surprised with this shoe but I wouldn't get them again either as a vulcanized shoe is more for the 5 tricks I do over and over along with the curb creature I have become at 46 years old. 🤣.
Was thinking about buying these, good review as always! Think I’m going to rethink buying these
The sole looks like a pebble picker, like the Berles. So for that reason it’s a pass for me. Thanks for the review.
That's what I hate about the Berles too
Great review as always. I got the all black with the white wave but the foam was throwing me off after a while skating the shoe. It took ok impact but they stopped being comfortable as I skated them more so I honestly have them away to my homie.
Nice. Yeah they were over all a pretty good skate shoe. But eh. I’m not gonna skate them again
The insoles has to keeping on skating and customizing the shoes of foot support and reaching the highest gap in durability and beyond the limits of skateboarding materials and impact protections length.
100% right the side/eyelet area for the laces of the shoe wears out much longer before the bottom tread
yeah yup. I think I remember these and I liked them
@@christianflores they are great shoes, i had two pairs and they lasted like 3 or 4 months each
I skate the AVEs and it looks like thats the same basic body so I know Ill like em. Color is perfect
whatever happened to your glue drops that you apply to the stitching of your shoes? Miss that stuff
I want to see you review the Walmart air walks
personally would want to see more converse reviews. maybe the AS-1 or fastbreak?
Maybe 🤔
I see you have your laces on there. What length are they? I grabbed the wrong size the last time and want to get a fresh pair when you get em back in stock?
Hopefully next week. I might make a sale !
It literally says on the website what size they are my guy.
Looks like a clothes similar to AVEs, which don't have enough cushioning, too-thin walled, no protection, and too narrow\tight. I have slightly inward bending bigtoes now permanently from them.
We need a dedicated update video on the progress of your insoles you have been working so hard on. ❤
Sooon! I been working on one for months. Like the update video. Lol
Any updates on the insole you are creating? My feet need them.
I got the zhaba shoe for like $60 and personally i think they are great, i think their exterior build could be better, i like how it looks but mine tears up fast, but the interior comfort and impact absorption is among the better shoes ive skated
Wow that is a W for sure.
Last resort drop 10 with the cloudy insole
More stock of 70 laces coming in? All sold out

Nice. Cop em
do a board review
I would like a video on es swift 1.5, I really love these shoes
Oh. Maybe. I was thinking es next.
Pls review enties mantra slip on
We need your shoe laces in Europe!
Hmmmmm I’ll see what I can do
Van's always been narrow. So hard to find wide vans
Nope. Never been narrow. Pretty well knows as a wide footed shoe.
@@christianflores Vans originated the vulc style
@@conrad520that's a weird lie to tell when chucks were around like 50 years before the van Dorens started making shoes
@@bri1085 “weird lie” haha bet you can’t find one pic of someone skating chucks in the era you’re taking about. We’re talking about skating..

lol that’s a good point. Idk man idk
I agree with the commenter and the colorway isn't good. Buuut brown is popular with the youth today.
@@kevincollins8620 for real? whyyyyyyy? :)
@@datenschutzification it reminds us of the shit we are
Eww fallen lol nobody wears those unless your 8 or 50 there ugly as hell honestly vans aren’t the best but fallen lol cmon guy

do a review on the adidas campus 00s
Hey boss when do they restock? I thought it was today
Hey Christian can you try out the Rinevena RN541
I have a sincere question, can you review the DC Teknic S every review I get is in literal Russian or is nonexistent. I think it looks cool butI really trust you and for the 20 years I've skater I never actually owned a pair of DCs somehow
You need to skate the lining Erik Ellingtons I can’t find one review on TH-cam for them yet and they look super dope
Can you review the lakai Evo 2.0 (not the xlk) or the Fallen revolvers
Do the new skool next
I kinda want too.
I have the alltimers collab shoe and it’s just really hard
You should review franky villanis new shoe
Try Converse 70s high
When Christian Flores shoe?
Eventually
The knife didn't really touch the white shoelace. D-bag move 😉
It definitely did. these laces aint no joke! ;) D-bag comment ;)
You should do a review of the Fp x ol dirty bastard shoes next✌️
Eh. Never really wanted to try em.
How's the insoles coming along
Good. I got 1 new revision coming and then I think we good to go.
Try out the li ning wave pro.
Maybe
When are the laces coming back they’ve been sold out for a minute?
Yeah. Tomorrow! Restock sale! Only tomorrow though. 20% off. Only on may 8th 👍🧨🙏👊
Do the es accel OG please 🙏🏾
Yikes. Maybe
Yea boii have a nice day everyone!
Yeah boiiii
The new converse as 1
Etnies marana michelin🤘🏼
They are super good. Try then. I skated them a while ago.
i cant get over how they ripped off the ishod colorway
Lol. Yeah pretty much.
Glad I didn't have money when these came out
Vans are NOT known for having a wider foot. There’s very few of them that even come close to wide.
Vans ARE KNOWN for having a wide foot. 🦶 ask John hill. Lol
Skate the converse fast break pro
I’ll look it up.
Should review Vans Knu Skools next 💪🏽
are those in soles???? damn, con pro by louie lopez are better 😂😂😂
This shoe looks a lot like the AVE...
Kinda. People told me it looks like the ishod. I kinda agree.
Vans keep getting uglier and uglier. God damn. I feel old. The no skools we’re kick ass. The big swirl on the Knu Skools look like a child’s kohl’s school.
Yeah kinda. Lol
Picked up a pair of these on Saturday. 2 hours of skating and ripped the eyelets and wave. Terrible quality. Vans are such a hit and miss brand
Yeah. They kinda died out on me quick too. It also depends on how you kickflip.
Whenever I hear 95% recycled materials I know the shoes will definitely not last. I mean can we just make a good skate shoe without worrying about the planet for once
$100 for a shoe that uses a lot of recycled product sounds wild.
$100 for a shoe that you’re gonna skate in is already insane. Unless it’s some new technology that can make them last for over 6 weeks I’m gonna keep sniffing out sales online.
It was pretty on pay with the rest of vans shoes.
ishod ripoff 💀
that outsole looks horrible 😵💫

Skate some Guy Mariano’s axions. Reissues
He’s on Nike?
@@christianflores Guy is on Nike. But Axion Footwear made a rerelease of his first model shoe. They call it the genesis or something like that.
The new axions are a rip off nothing like the old ones
