Leo Bakers New Shoe is one that Came out of nowhere for me, but Im glad I skated it. I gave me a chance to feel something different that ended up being good, but not before I struggled with them.

Also shoes reminds me of a slimmer Omar Salazar Nike sb from years ago

I knew Leo’s shoe reminded me of another shoe. Honestly, Leo’s shoe is low key a sleeper pro model.

This shoe is underrated, I'm glad people were able to get them on sale

@SuperJulio2008 Ай бұрын

I have a few shoes on ice and started walking on my pair. They feel good and your foot feels locked in. I love ‘em. The sale hopefully makes it more accessible for people and they get hooked on it so it stays around for a while.

@StriveForGloryRain Ай бұрын

What helped me putting them in is taking my laces out and putting them back in after my foots in the shoe, they're probably the best fitting and feeling Nike I've ever had

@christianflores Ай бұрын

Interesting. Do you have a wide foot?

@dataghost2307 Ай бұрын

I was curious about this shoe. They look funky in the pictures but they look dope on feet. Glad you didn't give up on em. Thanks for the review. 👍

From what you said they seem Overall very similar to the new Ishod Max and I am hating those shoes. I think I ll stick with NB 1010 in the future

@christianflores Ай бұрын

Yeah I liked the all white ones better but don’t have them though.

@MrMugampi Ай бұрын

That insole is actually a drop-in midsole, so you’ll feel more impact in your brand. This wasn’t a good shoe to highlight your insoles. Cause it doesn’t have a real midsole.

@christianflores Ай бұрын

Hm. What do you mean real midsole? The midsole is a “vulc” so it’s super thin. The insole it came with is that hard react insole. I just drop my insoles in almost all my shoes unless it’s built like a Tiago. lol

In skating these rn and they are pretty nice . I like them super flexible and broken out the box . If you like stiff shoes I wouldn’t recommend these tho . I actually like the insole these come with .

@christianflores Ай бұрын

Nice. And yeah they were a little too thin for me. Thanks for that thoughtful comment!

@daviddean7778 12 күн бұрын

besides them being a pain to get on I love these shoes thy have good board feel and I can wear them all day. I would say the rubber helps tehm last longer but yeah the flip tricks took a bit to get used to but once you get em down they are pretty great. I will say I do more vert skating so the issues wite=h the flip tricks arent a deal breaker to me

@TimHesse Ай бұрын

Imagine having to unlace a mid top shoe with shoelaces in order to get them on. It's not a slip in or a shoe with a quick lace system. It's a roomy shoe and the react insole (is super fricken cushy) makes up the entirety of the midsole, did you try stacking your thinner insole on top?

@christianflores Ай бұрын

That is my point. I don’t like having to untie my shoes all the way to put them on. I wear the adidas form 84s a lot because they are a MID top and I don’t have to untie my laces. Insoles is not “cushy” at all for me. Shits thin AF. lol if your skating in them with low impact stuff then yeah it should be chill but if your planning on jumping down anything. Not good. And I don’t put mine on top. I don’t think there would be enough room. But I would try it if I was still skating them

I thought you might have had an oddly improved experience putting your slimmer insole in. I always consider doing the swap but yeah always ends up too much space in the shoe.

@TimHesse Ай бұрын

@@lamontcowan-tellis5802 There is enough room to stack an insole on top of the react insole as there isn't really a mid-sole the react insole is 'the shoe'

You take the insoles out of almost every shoe which largely makes reviewing them pointless.

@christianflores Ай бұрын

Yeah dude. Stock insoles in shoes sucks. lol. Unless it’s a 1010 or a 808. Or another shoe with a fat outsole. The insoles don’t really help. That’s why I made the insoles I use. Spent 2 years making it. Definitely going to use it. And that tells you if you like board feel then you will like the thinner shoes. So yeah . . But you right. Super pointless. Lol

Formerly known as Lacey Baker. They transitioned to a guy. They wanted Leo to skate the Olympics as a woman and Leo turned it down. Because they wanted to put him in with the girls. I didn’t know that either
