    ABOUT
    Hi! I'm George Poulos (yes, I am from Greek descent!). I'm currently a 21 year old senior at Wesleyan University in Middletown, CT studying computer science, but after school I plan to run my RUclips channel & clothing brand Arrow Skate Co full-time. I'm madly in love with skateboarding & the lifestyle surrounding it; I have been skateboarding since 2005, so it's been about 14 years. I grew up in Maplewood, NJ, I currently live in Brooklyn, NY, and I study in Middletown, CT.
    Wow, thank you for reading my entire description ❤️ Leave a comment on this video or DM me on the socials if you have any questions!

    I bought a pair of Kyle Walker pros on a sale this winter. Otherwise, they are quite overpriced in Ukraine compared to the US. Now I can say that they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever skated. My previous shoes were Lakai Griffin and they were so low quality that a hole started to appear on one shoe where my big toe is just in two months, even before starting to shred in them. Yeah, I used to buy new shoes and walk in them every day while skating in the old pair with shoe goo applied while it's still skateable. By the way, I've heard a lot of good things about high top Nike SB Blazer, so I think I'm gonna try them next season.

  • @k1ng401
    @k1ng401 5 лет назад

    I started skating in Jan and I started with normal runners, then switched to hi top Chucks because they were the closest thing to a skate shoe that I already had. The Chucks smoother sole made it a lot easier to shuffle my feet into position on the board and they have enough rubber toe wrap to actually make a difference to my Ollies. But high tops are a pain to get on so I bought a pair of Vans Chima Pros in Feb and I love em. Unfortunately because I wear arch support insoles I had to ditch the shoe’s own super comfy Ultracush insoles but I cut them up and used as much as I could to give me cushion on the heel and that works well. I’m too much of a beginner to know if the change from Chucks to Vans really made any difference since I get better with each session anyway.
