idk how people skate with loose laces my shit gotta be tight af

You can't Judge an untied shoe. That's a slipper buddy.

I’m worried about the laces tho

I switched the insole to my pop Cush ones from my pro vans and they skate beautifully

They look fire

Genuinely look like amazing skate shoes

That ollie up the ledge was 🙀🙀🙀

This shoe was originally launched in 1995 it was part of the Vans International Collection when Vans closed it's U.S. factories and moved them overseas. The Original Knu Skools were made with a combination of cup sole with eva mid sole called Off the Wall 2 and they were highly accepted by skaters and musicians. They were discountinued around 2001 with a revival and reintroduction in a limited edition of the original model in 2015 by Vans Japan. Then the vulcanized version of the Knu Skool, which is the one you present, hits the market and it's a total bomb! ❤

You've got to fasten the straps on your helmet or else it won't protect your head in a fall. They're only good for one fall too and it's a lot more likely to use that up falling off your head onto the concrete

They look fire i want this

I love you bro this answered all my questions about the shoe in 60 secs, didn’t have to deal with 20+ mins of bs, straight to the point. Now I know I MIGHT cop but since my skating is getting more intense with gaps and ledges I might not.

idk how much I trust the rating from someone who doesn't tie their laces

Going to start collecting vans

Ive been skating half cabs for like a month now, best ones yet

I normally hate vans but these are pretty sick with the chunky tongue and padding

Literally the SB Dunk of Vans

Tie your shoes!!!! Laces are their for a reason! There*

I use to have a pair of these back in 98 I think .. I remember when they first came out. Super comfortable shoes.. I wish they’d bring back the Woodstock’s .. those were the best vans back in my younger days

They look gooddd

These shoes look sooo cool

I love these 🛹 might b my next purchase cool style

sick skating dude

"Today we got them and they're brand new!" One two buckle my shoe...

I like the fact that he wears a helmet :)

Love how the 90s gear all came back

old school vibesss i remember dustin dollin wearing this back in 2005

Keep it up amazing work

I used to wear vans but can't for a while because it forced my arch to be flat so now i wear shoes that help my arch.

theseeee go harddd

I often use nike blazer mid 77 for skateboard that is much more comfortable than any other skateboard shoes

i never understood how people skate in super thick shoes, the switch from converse to nyjahs was lethal for me

Love the videos you make it’s simple & easy to watch for skateboarder’s

i wear these for fits sometimes not skating but aye it works for that too

Johnny back at it, legend

vans gon release it again with the duracap rubber and up the price

You should do a tire list

Your pop is insane jon

I had a pair of these it ripped so quick

wow youre bringin back the loose lace swag 😂😂😂 been doing that when i was a lil kid cuz i thought it looks sick

Lowkey I fuck wit dc shoes 🔥🔥🔥

Bro double jumped unto thy brick wall Edit: Sorry time traveled mid sentence

Glad I made it in your video! Next time I see you imma say what’s up!

You should rate the vans Zahba shoes

Your videos are the only reason I know how to ride my skateboard

I gotta get these already !

Looks good

I want to get these but I don’t got money 😔

Original Kyle walkers got my heart

cool! I like the old vans slip ons 😂

I skate half cabs. I mostly skate vert, bowls, etc. and love them.

Love all your vids hope one day to meet ya at etnies

loose lacing shoes is so hard to skate because your shoe slips off so I just tie my shoe very tight

Thank you for making me need to buy a skateboard and learn

For the people talking about the laces, they lace it like this in the store, they did it for mine. The fat tongue won't let your foot come out of the shoe, you're safe.

you should try the half cabs they are good

If you rate shoes in the future, I'd love to see you rate their durability. I realize it takes time to fully understand that aspect. Perhaps you could rate durability based on design and any damage noticed during a session. Design things like leather vs. suede, 2 stitch vs 3 stitch, toe cap or not, whatever you could come up with based on exp. That'd be real helpful for me personally man.

These are my main skate shoes

I WANT THOSE 😭😭😭😭

Best shoes i ever skated were the Wray v3 by Adio when they were a thing. Id kill to find a pair in 8 preferably in all white

beatful

Could you do a vid on the chron 2’s from Nike?

These shoes are supposed to be a reissue of a budget model from 20 years ago. But since Vans is lazy, they didn't bother combining the upper with a lowland cc midsole.

Try skitshers their so comfy and they’re best friends when it comes to skateboarding

Looks 10/10 imo

My first thought: oh he got the NEW vans!!! 😍

i usually go with Jordan 4’s or Converse when skating

Try globe fusions next, I’ve been skating them for a week now and barely any wear

We got the brand new 1, 2 buckle my shoes

I have a pair of these , I put the vans pop Cush souls In these and there 100% more comfortable

I got the full black ones of the first one

I bought the vans Kyle walker navy today

get the vault version they come with a rounder toe box, ultra cush insole, way more comfortable

Last time laces like that were in vogue I was 11 lolol

I’m here to state you started a new rate trend of hitting all digits

Feels like these were made for looks only

vans half cab is like these with the thick tongue and the insoles are pretty thick

Less padding gives you more board feel and control. If you aren't skating big gaps or stairs they are certainly better. Even on big gaps and stairs you won't get the cushion bounce that throws your feet off the board on impact.

Do the laki griffins next

Nice shoes 👞 pal 👍

A thin insole allows for better board control though as you can feel the board better with your feet. For me thin insole = 9/10

Shoes look dope tho

Do converse next

New subscriber :)

I use sketchers sport shoes ment for running so the in souls are thick af so ots good for landings

It’s funny how some brands are going back to the bigger chunky skate shoe style like the first ever skate shoes were back in the day.

I have theese😊😅

Knu skools are thin near the toe and the laces are more likely to break since they are so big, just get some Rowan Pros

BRO KNOWS HOW TO GET COMMENTS

Good shoes

Try your sb Jordan’s next

Man there’s so many better chunky shoes that isn’t just a puffy tongue and thick laces, others are chunky all throughout

BRO AT ETNIES 💯💯💯

If you haven’t reviewed the Half Cabs I highly recommend it

You should do the Michelin Etnies Maranas

Pls do golden goose

7/16 is my birthday

plz do the air force 1s

do the half cabs

they just got the regular vans insole but I imagine they will release a pro version with the pop cush insole

Yeah cause I skate these shoes, I would 100 percent recommend getting insoles for them
