I tried them on at the Vans store a couple of weeks ago and I gotta say: I was really impressed with how comfortable and well constructed these shoes are. Well done Vans, and it comes from someone who hasn't been able to enjoy Vans in a very long time. For once the price is kind of justifiable, I'm still not buying at that price but if I ever find a deal, I'd gladly buy one or 2 pairs of these (also Rowan is the man).
I’ve always loved Vans as a company, I wear a lot of Vans as daily shoes but I only actually like a few of their shoes for skating, but I love that they are coming out with more solid cupsoles in the line up
I haven't skated them yet but I'm not a fan of the look of the shoe. I've been a HUGE fan of the "bulky" shoe renaissance that's been going on last couple years. Like eS' has been absolutely nailing it lately. Bringing back the Scheme, the Creager, the Muska, the Penny 2s, the 197, the Arto, and a few more. Even a couple other brands have been coming back with the "bulky" shoe like C1rca has some nasty shoes out right now too. But I've been going hard with buying eS' the last couple of years. They've been absolutely killing it
If a shoe has canvas on the side I will ignore it. I use the whole side of my shoe for heelflips. From heel collar to ollie area, the whole shoe gets damaged. Vans focuses more on looks and breathability than the shoe's quality and longevity.
Its depends companies can do creative stuff with it to save money like put canvas or synthetic materials on the inside part of the shoe where no wear happens typically from trick skating ive seen companies like fallen and etnies do it but still most of time they blatantly put in terrible areas vans is notorious to me for being the worst in this category i mean i literally won't buy the skate old skool because its a pure scam they have audacity to make casual wear shoes with sll pig suede but sell only canavs in the skate versions
This one my favorite shoes from really likes these color ways. Also, only issues have for being wide feet people fit narrow, Lastly , fire tricks and parks 🔥🔥
Is this the shoe that makes me try vans for the first time in 5 years? Hyped to get my/your insoles, the Fastbreaks need a little help to keep the old man going.
They kinda remind me of some of their cupsole shoes from the nineties. Specifically the trench, drool, and dna. I only had the trench, but they were nice. I got two pairs back to back
I am skating the Rowan 1 now and I’m not a fan . Coming from Nike gt blazers and the vans just don’t fit my feet as nicely . Also not a fan of the pop Cush insole . These look a lot better
May I ask. How should shoes fit?? My foot is 28,5 cm and unusually I’m wearing a size 11,5 (29,5 cm). But I don’t know if that’s to much space in skate shoes. How is your set up? Really appreciate the help

Yeah definitely my favorite vans shoe so far.
I’ve always loved Vans as a company, I wear a lot of Vans as daily shoes but I only actually like a few of their shoes for skating, but I love that they are coming out with more solid cupsoles in the line up
Yeah this one definitely is way better than I thought.
I miss when the standard for a no frills cupsole skateshoe was $50-$65
Yeah! Seriously! That’s what I’m saying.
Exactly why I haven't changed from Es Accel Slims for so long
That commercial was dope, You've always been pushing the VFX and I like that
Thanks G! Seriously one of the things that gets me excited to make videos now a days.
One of my favorites things on the channel besides the personality has been the intros and animations
Glad to know u take in our recommendations!
I’m currently using these rn
Yupppo always do. And yeah these were super good.
Hope the first batch of insoles sell well so that you might go international shipping for the next ones!
Good job!👏👏👏
Me tooo thanks G!
Vans seems to have started having fun with cup soles since the zahba dropped ..looks nice
I LOvE the editing in his new vids
Thanks G! 🚀🚀🚀

Nice. Yeah if you really like bulk! Stay with the bulk. lol.
@@christianfloresCould you do a review on the latest bulky C1rca models, such as the 805, cx201r or the tave?
That shoe comes at $160+ retail here in my country. Vans here is priced crazy.
DAMN! That’s crazy.
Vans never disappoints
Yeah this one was goooood.
Can we give it up to this man for the production quality of this video tho?!!? Effects, camera work..dude make a short film lol
Haha thanks G

If a shoe has canvas anywhere on it I'm not skating it. Idc how good the shoe performs or how good it looks
Its depends companies can do creative stuff with it to save money like put canvas or synthetic materials on the inside part of the shoe where no wear happens typically from trick skating ive seen companies like fallen and etnies do it but still most of time they blatantly put in terrible areas vans is notorious to me for being the worst in this category i mean i literally won't buy the skate old skool because its a pure scam they have audacity to make casual wear shoes with sll pig suede but sell only canavs in the skate versions
Please review more of the emercias, especially the ones with g6 midsole
Yeah I need to skate some.
This one my favorite shoes from really likes these color ways. Also, only issues have for being wide feet people fit narrow, Lastly , fire tricks and parks 🔥🔥
Yeah I need to skate more. lol.
Is this the shoe that makes me try vans for the first time in 5 years?
Hyped to get my/your insoles, the Fastbreaks need a little help to keep the old man going.
lol. I think it’s worth a try. Definitely surprised me that I liked them.
They kinda remind me of some of their cupsole shoes from the nineties. Specifically the trench, drool, and dna. I only had the trench, but they were nice. I got two pairs back to back
Nice. I’ve never seen the ones you’re talking about.
@@christianflores if you google search 'vans trench shoe' it will bring up images, old ccs catalogs and such
Crazy how they haven't fixed the tread on the vans cupsole offerings. Picking pebbles out of the tread gets old fast.
Always the first to break.
... did Vans basically make they're own Joslins?!? I might have to try these out ... will have to wait for your insoles though ;P
They are on their way to me now. And yeah these surprised me too. Lol
I am skating the Rowan 1 now and I’m not a fan . Coming from Nike gt blazers and the vans just don’t fit my feet as nicely . Also not a fan of the pop Cush insole . These look a lot better
Yuuuuuup.
please do reviews on nike sb zoom pogo plus and adidas adimatic
Hello!
I'm in doubt between Rowan 2 or Cons AS-1 Pro!!
From what I saw in the videos, the durability of the Vans seems to be MUCH better...
You like a cup or a vulc?
My bottoms look like traditional bottoms. I loved the Rowan 1 but couldn’t buy it again in the soil color I love.
I don't usually do it, but I got to say this for the first time in my life, so here it goes FIRST!
Congratulations 🎊🎈🍾🎉!!!! Lol
You should review the Emerica OG-1/MJ1s
Maybe.
@@christianflores fair enough
Could you review the NB# 480 ? Those look so sick and NBs are super good
Maybe. I’ll check them out.
Just got the Rowan 2 Spitfire collab shoe for 70 bucks. Cant go wrong with that 🤙👟
Oh that’s dope.
@@christianflores Crazy deal I had to jump on! Can't wait to skate em!
@@christianjarvis5729how do they skate
Hey could you do the new balance 480 numeric next? So far they are my favorite skate shoe and I’m curious what you would think of ‘em.
I’ll check it out.
They look like dunks. Lol
Cupsole vans are so amazing
Idk how many times I have asked you to review dc metric
lol. 2 recently.
Can you rewiev the vans rowley pro classic?
The first one? I reviewed that one a while ago.
May I ask. How should shoes fit?? My foot is 28,5 cm and unusually I’m wearing a size 11,5 (29,5 cm). But I don’t know if that’s to much space in skate shoes. How is your set up?
Really appreciate the help
Just a snug fit is good. Not super tight but you don’t want them loose.
If you review the DC metric , I will love you very much.
110 dollars!? I got the spitfire rowan 2s for only 17 bucks at the vans outlet!
In vans store Philippines 8.5k check in dollars how much??
Do the dc metric (no strap)
Maybe.
@@christianflores in fair warning the lace will rip quicker than almost any other shoe lol. Maybe one with the strap
That color way is sick. Wasn’t crazy about the blue ones. They’d be sick in olive or brown
Christian actually liked a Vans shoe? Whats going on?
Yeah I know hu!?! Weird.
yooooo these look great! also, this review was super well done! C'mon people! Sub already!
Thanks G! And yeah hu!
Can you skate the Adidas Campus 00s
God damn that's a good-looking shoe
I agree
How would you compare them to the AVE Pro?
Similar. But u like these more.
Hey, nice video ! Comparing to the exo version, is it the same size ?
I think so. I wouldn’t image it being different. But I have not checked.
Perfect video❤
Man you make me want to get some now, but the price 😬
Yeah. I agree. But they do seem like they will last a while.
Good looking shoe...and nice flip..for a reg foot.:)
lol. Thanks G!
Hello, are you going to bring back the laces?
Yeah! Shipment coming in to me soon.
6:09 Mmmm purple croissant bon appetite 😆

Black white and grey
Review the És swift 1.5
Good looking shoe

What’s that?
Youre lying when you say you like the way this shoe looks. You were def bummed when you got the Payless model as a kid
lol what? I didn’t know I was lying to myself. Thank god you know me more than myself. Lol
I copped a blue pair today, initial thoughts out of the box, these are comfy as fuck !! I gave wide ass feet too
Did you go half size up or full size up or true to size?
@@bisayasurf true to size
