Pro slip-ons take a little bit to break in but once they are they are the best feeling skate shoes in my opinion
Mine are finally broken in and they aren't my go to shoes but when I do skate them I enjoy it where before it was unbearable.
Slips ons take a while to break in, but every other shoe I have skated have felt great from the pro line. IMO best feeling skate shoes on my feet.
Are they painful before broken in?
Take care of your knee. I had surgery on mine at 26. Wish I would of kept up on taking care of it. Need another surgery atleast to fix it.
I'm die hard Van's and went to 3 stores last week looking for these. No dice. But I did order some Rowley classics last week.
Now do 100 heelflips. Those are what destroy my shoes fast !
Thanks for the test !
Haha I was thinking about doing a hundred heel flips but it seems like a lot of work in vulcanized shoes. Maybe in some cup soles.
I’ve been doing this guys program for my knee for the last month and my knee is pretty much back to normal. Check out Kneesovertoesguy on insta.
Good review! I think they're also a response to Last Resort AB. I can't believe how nice the flick on the Last Resorts is compared to the old pro Vans. Slimmer, better fitting shoes are definitely the way to go.
Yeah vans created a liability for themselves by making shoes that have great flick but lack in so many ways
@@localjoe For sure! Another flaw is that there's a 50% chance that the foxing comes away from the sole and they get all full of gravel and water. The sick stick on the Rowans seemed to fix that so the Skate Classics should be fine too. There's no signs of the soles falling to bits on my Last Resorts either.
@@Jacorpes I should get some last resorts and make a video I still don’t know much about them
@@localjoe Yeah man, you should because it’s really hard to find reviews on them. I’d say they have the best boardfeel and grip of any shoe I’ve skated but they’re pretty thin. They’re basically perfect as long as you’re not throwing yourself down huge stair sets.
I feel yeah with the knee thing. I skate regular, but I've had an injured left knee for the past year, but finally started getting better. Finally able to hike, ball, skate, lift, etc. Not as good as before the injury, but not as depressing as during.
I'd also say, working as a server, walking 5 miles a day has helped as well as before that point, doing knees over toes stuff. Mainly just working out the shins by leaning forward with a lunge and stretching the quads.
I've been doing knees over toes and that stuff helps a lot!
@@localjoe Yeee glad to hear it!!
I've been looking everywhere for an answer, I bought these shoes and they HURT. My feet BLEED at the backs of the ankles. For people who own these, how long does it take for these shoes to get soft??
I had to drive them over with my car a few times and then it took another couple weeks
@@localjoe Jesus freaking christ I'm in for a painful one aren't i
I don’t know if the shoes get softer but your ankle will get used to it after a few weeks
@@Owen_DAP u can microwave them
I picked these up the morning they dropped. Definitely took a little break in time. And they are definitely tight, but yeah they skate awesome! And honestly are grippier than other Vans. I think once they fully break into your foot they should feel like an old slipper.
Got a blister and haven’t been able to skate them since but I’m stoked you said this because I was hoping they’d be bangin when they broke in
yeah the breaking in part HURTS in the arch of my foot i gotta take them off here and there but once there broken it they feel and fit just like a sock !!!!
@@Thatsonme23 yeah I had the same experience as well now the arch is mostly fine but my feel is getting toasted
yea man it sucks at first i bought two pairs of pros last weekend and started with the slip ons and couldn’t take that pain anymore and just started skating my old skool pros so much easy to break in but i’ll prolly break in the slip ons soon
@@Thatsonme23 think just gonna soak em in hot water and wear them for a couple hours
I feel you on the left knee problems! Having some issues on mine as well, hope it heals quick big dog! Also ; great video as always 👍🏻
thanks G! I've been doing Knees over toes guys program and my knee is feel waay better.
You can try Footprint insoles, they make my left knee pain manageable while skating
him: skates to break them in
everybody else: microwave
Hahaha I deserve this
ayo does microwave your shoe actually help break them in? i never tried it and idk if everyones being serious about it
@@steezy1692 100%
@@steezy1692 it actually does work it works up the rubber and gets the insole to mold to your feet bro
i don’t think vans is trying to compete with straye at all lol, straye is a really small company and is taking the smallest percentage of their business. looks like vans is just doing their own thing
I think they are trying to close the door on smaller competitors which is why they redid all the authentic pros. The old ones were overpriced garbage
Yeah I agree, not to mention all the strayes I’ve skated were genuine garbage compared to Vans. But maybe that’s just me
@@chalkskatez101 that’s interesting cuz for me they’ve been what vans pros were supposed to be. A more durable vulc shoe.
@@localjoe I skated a few pair of strayes and they just feel really cheap and unprotective compared to Vans. Then again, I don’t weigh much at all, so that feel probably alters
Ayoooo congrats on monetization🥳🔥🔥
Haha thanks man! Pretty small at the moment but hopefully one day it’ll be a enough to live off. Also dude I see your sub count going up as well!
Didn’t even think that skip one could be skated on, but I guess you can do that better now.
I know it’s not as if you can’t skate in slip ons, I just always thought that they wouldn’t be a good idea to skate in, especially since the ones I got got really thin canvas. Then again, they are just the regular vans slip ons, and not the skate pros.
I got so lucky and copped the last pair yesterday. You right tho these shits hurt like a mf 😂 but after 40 mins they was fine thanks for the review. No one has really reviewed them rn either so nice job my guy
Haha yeah they gave me a blister so I haven’t been able to skate them since making this video but I really did like them blisters almost healed stoked to skate them some more
@@localjoe they gave me blisters too but do they stop giving you blisters after they get broke in?
@@Nyrippers I’m not sure mine still don’t feel broken in I’ve been wearing them around but I’m not gonna skate in them until they feel soft
I am Mexican and I did not understand almost anything, but if you recommend them? Answer with a yes or a no, I already leave my I like it :)👍
Yo hablo espanol. Para me no me gustan. Prefiero los Straye ventura porque no son tan caro y son mad comodos. Si te gustan los vans estoy probando los Kyle walker 2 y son mucho mejor tambien pienso yo. Espero que esto te ayude!
@@localjoe wow so you have multiple talents
@@localjoe holy shit bro your so cool
I hope your knee heals fast man keep killing it!!!
thanks G Knees over Toes guy's got me feeling much better!
The insoles are flat because everyone's feet are a little different. When they break in the insole will shape to your foot. Giving you a much more personal fit than if they pre shaped the insole.
I feel that it's just they do seem to take longer to break in for sure. My nike shane's broke in halfway through 100 kickflips and by the end felt like I'd skated them for a week already.
Okay but the Friday merch is looking insane 🔥🔥🔥
thanks G
Can you please do the Vans Skate Classic Era review!
I've never heard of strays. But hey I don't think I'm going to stray away from Vans again I made that mistake testing shoes out the last 5 years a lot of garbage on the market I'll stick with my Vans.
Just depends on what you like but the old vans pros were garbage in my opinion and the strayes are a better version of the OG vans shoes... but I think the Pro model shoes like the Kyle Walkers and such are a completely different story.
I got the skate authentics. I can’t wait to skate in them. Thanks for the review bro. Hope you heal soon. Stay safe out there broski 😎
thanks G the knee is already much better knees over toes guys got me
I wanna know silverdragon, how are they? I’m thinking about getting some
Honestly no update to the insoles. Maybe design on the bottom but that’s it. I thought the duracap was behind the suede, not the outsole. Pretty interesting. Loved the review!
I kept calling the toe cap the dura cap i'm just an idiot over here don't worry lol
There is also a heel stiffener inbetween the midsole and outsole to keep the shoes from getting floppy quick
does that mean theyre not as flexible as the old pros
@@nooriman7152 yes
Definitely noticed the stiffness for sure but I think that just means they'll be that much better broken in.
@@localjoe oh yeah
I love thinner shoes but stiff at the same time I have no clue why I just feel more sturdy and secure
I ended up buying these cause my dad forgot to order my strayes I was originally gonna get can’t wait to skate these cause my feet are super narrow
Update me
Supa Dreamy they have no holes yet except a bit of wearnes in the kickflip spot
My feet cramp so bad in the new slipons but they skate good tho!
Yeah my feet were cramping so bad! Still haven't skated them since the day I filmed this. I need to microwave them or break them in or something.
I picked these up and like the look and how they skate. My only issue is that I feel I could easily get my ankles rolled, not only because of the low design, but because of the lack of laces to tighten the shoe. How are these skating off drops or stairs?
I have these shoes they take a bit to break in I recommend using a microwave or hairdryer to help with the process and the first time you skate them don't plan to skate all day because they will hurt for a bit but overall i love the shoes
Most uncomfortable shoes I’ve ever skate haha but they skate great
@@localjoe Probably comes down to foot shape but yea my friends has them and has the same issue
is it just me or are these superrrrr tight on the top?
nah man these shoes are suuuper tight all around. Unfortunately they gave me blisters and I still haven't been able to wear them since filming this video.
Hi Joe, i have a question about straye Ventura xr , i just wenn to Bus Then yesterday at a local Shop but ended up not getting them cause I wasn’t sure about the fit, the 40 (eu size) felt too big and the 39,5 too tight... what’s your advice regarding that? No fear o feeling tight cause they gonna break a little or better feel cosy in them cause they could be feeling too tight if I go for the smaller size? I had the feeling my heel were slipping out in the bigger size.. so I ended up unsure and didn’t buy them... but I really much like them...
I always go with the smaller size and let them break in and feel cozy personally. Hope that helps!
great review! I loved my Streys had 4 pairs.. peace from San Francisco
strayes are so sick! Thanks for the love G!
Hey friend, what is the average lifespan of this skateboarding model? In my country, vans are expensive, it would be interesting to last at least 3 months.
Just bought one on Vans online shop por 32 euros. A real bargain!
Did you with your regular shoe size with these bad boys? Or did you buy a half size down?
Half size down.
My favorite part about the whole thing is you also wear strayes
Glad you bought these, I was considering buying these
I think they are worth it but I haven't skated all the way through a pair but they feel durable only thing is when I got back from filming this video I had a blister... so definitely some break in time.
@@localjoe Same I feel the break in time takes a little while on vans. But after that they’re pretty comfortable. Thanks for the review/first impression appreciate it
This dedication is insane!! Thank you!
🙏🏼❤️
My vans old pros bottom completely fell off but I’m pretty sure that’s because my feet are so wide but I ordered the new ones so I hope they’re better
Is there some kind of warantee or something? Vans shoe quality is pretty low considering how big of a company they are I've had similar structural issues with mans pros in the past...
why this man connect everything he says this video to the strayes
if you've tried the straye ventura it's a very comparable shoe.
Mmm you do know the duracap under the suede so when it dose RIP threw that the duracap is a plastic like rubber toe cap right cause it sounds like you thought you said the duracap was just over the foxing
I saw some Vans skate shoes and they were labeled as "Vans Slip-On Pro" and the skate shoes by vans are now known as Vans Skate Slip-Ons. Do you think the shoes that I saw, are an older model?
Yes. The skate models are the newer pro models.
Is he sponsored by stray like wtf why is he comparing them so much
Haha no I just think they are very comparable shoes wouldn’t mind free shoes from them tho
Im glad I went with nbs rather then these
new balance shoes?
Anybody else feel like the gum soles aren’t as grippy? They’re suppose to have sickstick but my Rowan pros are soooo much more grippy than my new skate half cabs
Very strange. All the gum soles I’ve ever had have been annoyingly sticky... not sure what’s up with that
They are really cool but I get blisters on the back of my heel it sucks because they are really good
Haha same I haven’t had a proper session in them since I made this video! Might try microwaving them or something to get them to break in
@@localjoe yeah they are good everything wise except the arch and the heel vans always has a problem with the arch
@@mariomorales2015 they are sick but at the same I just filmed doing 100 kickflips in the Nike Shane’s and they broke in like thirty kickflips in and felt amazing so it’s like other people can make shoes without those problems why can’t vans
@@localjoe yeah I feel that but I love the board feel on vans I will sacrifice my arch for that board feel XD
@@mariomorales2015 haha I feel that but the Shane’s have amazing board feel as well if you ever wanna ball out I think they are worth a try
Slip ons take awhile to break in and get confotable
When you have bought these shoes before watching this review ;-;
Dude not buy these I ride bmx and ripped them in two days of normal riding the toe cap in the middle of the shoe ripped so fast and they where 70 dollars I did get a refund tho
I don't ride bikes but have you seen the Vans bmx slips? They look sick as hell!
@@localjoe yea unfortunately I couldn’t get them in time they where all sold out
I heard they run a bit small how much size should I get highrr
I normally get a size 8.5 in slip ons because I like them extra snug that’s what did with these and they feel tight but the toe feels just right so I reckon once they break in they’ll be golden. I’d definitely try and find a vans store to try them on
i love the strayes but they give no arch support :(
I feel like most vulcanized shoes have no arch support maybe you'd like cupsoles better.
@@localjoe ur prolly right ima go down a size because straye ik is a really good shoe
are these good for not wide feet?
They seem wide but very snug across the top of the foot
Dude just got TWO pairs of these Nd I hate them! Way too tight on the tops of my feet Nd I even tried cutting the elastic on the sides a lil bit Nd still fuckn hurts 😢 back of my foot also bleeding 🩸 lol fuck vans
Their pro models are solid but the slips eras and I’m guessing the classics are just not great
Are they comfortable around the toe area
Personally I had no problem around the toes my issue was with the heal cup giving me blisters
Another straye guy 👀 I see your a man of culture 🤌🏼 vans is overrated a bit I love when the Ventura and gowers are broken in!
Haha culture indeed! Ventura’s somehow just give me what I need!
Subbed
Thanks big dog! 🙏🏼
LOOK GREAT. WAY TOO TIGHT TO WEAR
You lost me at the moment you said Straye.
Haha do you know who started Straye?
@@localjoe not sure but tbh I don't care, not trying to sound like a dick.
Low quality shoes are not my thing.
@@incsk8 haha well steer clear of these vans then lol
Do a hundred fuckin ollies, that’s what destroys vans not kick flips.
Is this a Mormon church parking lot
Haha yeah nobody is ever around or if they are nobody bothers me so it’s a good place to film
@@localjoe My dude I do the same thing haaaa Just caught me off guard I was like "Yo I know that parking lot layout.. I know that basic looking brick building.."
Great video
I hated the OG pro slips. Looked good but too bouncy/squishy and my heel sat too high up bc of all the cushioning.
they were such trash dude it really bothered me because for a company like vans that is supposed to back skaters as part of their marketing it just felt like empty promises but these shoes are definitely a step in the right direction I'd actually consider buying these over strayes.
could someone pls explain the duracap for me
Underneath the suede near the toe there is another layer of rubber for added durability. It’s called the dura cap
does it work for canvas too?
But really what's up w the stupid beanie ?
Haha
50 sec- 1min 20 sec CAPPPP vans pro are the best shoes other than cariuma :)
Kickflips without pop
Haha cheers for that! My popping leg knee has issues
Your kick flips are dookie
True lol How’s the sideline? Haven’t been there in a while... drop the ig so we can see how not dookie yours are lol
@@localjoe frankieabril
haha dude just saw this so you don't skate at all do you?
50 sec- 1min 20 sec CAPPPP vans pro are the best shoes other than cariuma :)
Every vans pro I had blew out really fast.
@@localjoe then you must've not got the suede ones :)
@@pszenda12 yeah I get the canvas are the suede bad?
@@localjoe ive skated the tnt prototype and the slip on pro and the only con from me is that the heel collar isn't durable
