Christian i got an Idea, make a section where you look for old brands like Circa, Vita, Sens, Simple, Airwalks, you know 90s-00s shoes and do reviews of them. cheers Buddy!
I haven't fucked with the era, but I have been using the Rowan pro and I love them. I own 3 pairs now. And it was my first pair of Vans that I used to skate.
Dude yeah, you ripped the shoe in the exact same place as me. The stitches completely ripped apart and my heelflips made the eyelet rip off too. Great review! I'm gonna check out your shop bc I went through 3 laces in 2 months LOL
Tbh for me, these vans felt like the best ones I've personally ever skated. I usually skate impact, and usually my vans shoes kinda hurt, but these felt quite sturdy for a vulcanized shoe, plus the build of the shank and the sharp edges of the soles. But then again, I got them a half a size smaller by accident and the old skool versions. I just wish I got a size 11 not a 10.5
Man you gotta get some SB Dunk Highs with suede they are my favorite skate shoes because dunks last long time and they stay stiff pretty long time and the high top version gives more confidence 😍
The skate era classics are my fav shoes of all time..& I've been skating since 86'. Yeah, I'm old. But I don't skate old.. Well, maybe a little bit. Anyways, I still love these damn shoes & I'd recommend them to anyone who likes skating in vans. They made them better in all the ways I always wanted them to.
@@christianflores Sure sorta, but there's some key differences. The heel support is better bc of the extra suede around the heel & the ankle cushioning.
Check out Footprint if you can. Not necessarily cheap depending on which type you get but I've used em the last few years and love em. They make it so you can skate vulcanized shoes and still be able to walk the next day ;) i think Christian's reviewed them before too, go through the early videos
Yeah Footprint is definitely what you should go for. They have a lot of insoles, I'd reommend you the Gamechangers. At first they feel weird but with time they mold to your feet, so they are extremely comfortable. I use them even for walking at this point. They are great for impact and you can also feel your board quite well. Just don't stack them like he did lol replace the stock ones.
@@christianflores Cool, that sounds interesting. I'm skating eS Symbols at the moment and have started using shoe goo on it. It seems less durable than the eS Accel OG on the toes. (And have been trying kickflips like crazy). Buuuut, that was kind of expected, as there's literally less material there to wear off.
Let’s see the Reebok workout and workout plus!!!! Classic shoe that lots of skate shoes have used for design. My friend has some of the dgk one form way back and they would have been soo nice to skate.
Christian skate the jdi af1 they lasted me 2 years of skating and They are Air Force ones so the bottom has air in it so the protection for landing is really good
Agreed even the canvas is much more durable than the original. I usually destroy the canvas on the first day with original vans and I’m holding up about a month now
Just say not sponsored.shop. thats all you gotta say, very simple, thats it. And i love you, this is a very short one, very easy to do. i know your dedicated to the comment section but im not trying to make you write all that comment if youre writing this thats crazy. k thats it were done love you bye
I'm going to try these as a replacement for my sb janoskis. I have also tried skating in regular canvas vans slip-ons...well I completely destroyed those after one session (huge holes in the toe cap), these with the suede toe caps seem like they'd last more abuse while still being a light shoe with good board feel. I also recently got the etnies joslins, good and comfy shoe, but too bulky and most importantly too narrow for my wide feet.
I feel like you could benefit from doing some feet strengthening exercises. I just grabbed the slip ons and impact protection is really good for a vulc
@@christianflores I don’t jump down anything crazy, but I’ll slip out and strike my heel when bailing awkward. I’ve just found more cushioning isn’t necessarily the best way to protect the fascia. I could dm you some videos on Instagram that might be a helpful place to start. I mean my feet get pretty beat up too but I’ve just found the slip ons to offer oddly good protection compared to lakais or the terrible strayes I was skating
dude i skate my vans sk8 highs since january and still going. honesty im thinking about only skating the sk8 highs from now on. ( The shoes still skate ok but the sole seperated from the sued on the kick flip area, im not iven good at kickflips my heel flips are way higher and cleaner)
If you want a seriously sticky sole try out Last resort AB. They pretty much skate how Vans wish their shoes skated. It's great to see a new skater owned brand shaking up the shoe market too.
Hm. Maybe. I might have just been feeling my heel flips lately. Lol. The padding around your ankle. Is basically nothing. There is non. Lol. It’s just canvas.
I bought both the era pros and the authentic pros I’m my opinion the authentic don’t hold up as good for heelflips but if you main kick flips they hold up nicely now if you main heelflips like I do then you might like the era pros better
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.
Aight, need some ideas from someone. I'm like a 99% percent transition skater; very little flipping going on for me. The only part of my shoes that get worn down is the sole. Anyone got any tricks to "re-grip" the bottoms of my shoes. I'm thinking something like rubber cement. Something thin enough to where it won't make the shoe feel heavy and awkward, but heavy enough to where it won't come off every session. I've yet to find something that works.
I haven’t been skating these, but been skating the new skate Half Cabs for about a month. I’m with you in that they basically feel like the same shoe. I just think the suede seems more durable. And I like the straps on the tongue. Anyways, sick review as always dude!
who does the 3d scanning of the shoes? i would love to port them to the Skater XL Video Game let me know if uf like to collaborate g! i can make it happen!
@@christianflores just saw this sorry for the late reply would u like to work on getting the 3d mopdels into the game? i can show u the work ive made !
It would be sick to see a review on the Vans Crockett Pro High, they seem like a great alternative to the sk8-hi for people who can’t wear them because of the hotspot
Every pair of sk8-hi’s I’ve had has had a really bad hotspot just below the pinky toe because of the seam on that edge. I’ve never been able to wear them for more than a couple hours at a time because of it.
See this is why you’re so good at reviewing skate product, so well detailed. I’m just like “yeah they work” lol!
THANK YOU!!!! Since the comment on the Vans Slip-On video i have not gotten the authentics, i am still very thankful that youve done my suggestion
Christian i got an Idea, make a section where you look for old brands like Circa, Vita, Sens, Simple, Airwalks, you know 90s-00s shoes and do reviews of them.
cheers Buddy!
He doesn't skate legacy shoes after reviewing the D3. He only rides in over priced vulc shoes.
Thank you so much for your take on these Vans Classic Skate Authentic. I've been waiting for your review on these. Very helpful!
The quality of these vids are better than most vids coming from youtubers with over a mill subs!
Omg you varial heel is so clean subbed the minute I saw you do it

@@4kdlx982 Mine last 3-4 months and they still got life if you would shoe goe it
Best shoe ever, too bad they're overhyped and therefore economically unaccessible for most skaters :/
@@danielkoster8510 Yeah :/
i have both the skate authentic and skate era. good shoes.

video 44 asking for a review of the gilbert crockett vans
I bought them today and holy crap I felt a huge difference!
"I like a little more *MEAT* on my shoes" YO WHAT
Can’t wait for the review for that éS shoe next
Me too. Gonna start skating them today.

Very detailed and very underrated shoe review as always! 🔥
is the era model better? because this one looks a bit uncomfortable in the ankle zone because of the lack of padding
im surprised he didnt review the eras instead of the authentics
It's definitely better imo. Yeah I hate the way the authentics feel around the ankle. That padding on the eras makes a huge difference
Definitely not just a new colorway and tag!!
Agreed even the canvas is much more durable than the original. I usually destroy the canvas on the first day with original vans and I’m holding up about a month now
You look so good in these!
I NEEDED THIS REVIEW THANK YOU
Yk it’s a good day when Christian uploads

your reviews are the best !!
Thanks man!
Great vid, can you review the insoles you sticking in them or all of them out there !
Just the look of it is super clean. I don’t really like skating vans they dont give me that confidence in skating. But these 😍

Get em G
Can you wear these even if you are not skateboarding? I want a longer lasting vans and I don’t mind paying for more
i second this. Is the price upgrade worth it if your not using them for skating?
You should review Last Resort Ab shoes
Riding the 3 block board?! You’re basically a revive guy now. Congrats!
this is the best skateshoe ive ever had!! would recommed to everybody
Forum 84 ADV next plzz

Let us know bro
I got them bro they are much nicer than normal slip on pros , much longer lasting tread , way nice insole and stronger feeling shoe !!!
Great review
ES ACCEL OG PLEASE 🙏🏼

you should review the Straye Logan, you reviewed one of there shoes a few years ago and i would be interested to see if they have improved.
If you want a seriously sticky sole try out Last resort AB. They pretty much skate how Vans wish their shoes skated. It's great to see a new skater owned brand shaking up the shoe market too.
The last resort insoles hurt my feet
If your righting this?! That’s ! Crazy !
I'm always happy seeing you reviewing a shoes ots fun to watch coz I love shoes HAHAAHAH lol
Finaly i was wating for this shoe
bruh ive been waiting for this vid i also have the exact same shoes
Would you recommend this shoe?
@@r3mmee567 yeah i want to know
i think the reason why the heel flips are better it's because of the pads is double and added a hight so that's why it looks better for me i think
Hm. Maybe. I might have just been feeling my heel flips lately. Lol. The padding around your ankle. Is basically nothing. There is non. Lol. It’s just canvas.
That red and white building looks really familiar, I feel I might have bought a car stereo or speakers there?
It was frys. The electronic store.
I bought both the era pros and the authentic pros I’m my opinion the authentic don’t hold up as good for heelflips but if you main kick flips they hold up nicely now if you main heelflips like I do then you might like the era pros better
Can you review the circa Adrian Lopez 50 or the vans Av era 1.5 or the DC Evan Smith shoe or the vans sk8 High or the converse sea star LS ??
can u reveiw the adidas forum 84 low
Id like to see you review the Maranas, id like to know how the toecap feels like for flip tricks and how durable the ollie patch is
I second this
Please review Nike SB Shane premium and Romero laced much love!
Can you do a review on the dunk sb truck it highs
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.
I have them, and i can say that they are very good skate shoes
The tread seems durable for a one month shoe
Yo budd can u review the eS accel slim?
On it.
Adidas busenitz Vulc 2 could make a great review I have skated 3 pairs and I want other skaters opinions on them
They rule, if you've had 3 pairs you already know the truth!
I found they got a little sloppy and loose after time. A Comfy shoe though!
Yo Christian do the Joslin vulc!
Hi Christian
can you make a review on the etnies slip on xlt please?
Please ship to Canada. I NEED THOSE LACES.
im trynna see if im gonna get blazers, cariumas, or skate authentics . please help

Alright christian hear me out, please review the clearweather Donny's as it is a relatively smaller skate line
You could review the Marana Slip from Etnies
A thin upper provides less lateral support..
I haven’t been skating these, but been skating the new skate Half Cabs for about a month. I’m with you in that they basically feel like the same shoe. I just think the suede seems more durable. And I like the straps on the tongue.
Anyways, sick review as always dude!
DO THE MARANA MICHELIN PLEASEEE
Good shoe!
Can you do a review on the Straye Venice OG shoes?
you should review the Last Resort AB shoes!
Not trying to knock your review but the Skate Era has the padding around the ankle/heel that the Authentic is missing!!! Great Review nonetheless 🙌
Do a video on the footprint jaws velocity
Surely u skate some emericas soon
Well a Vans vulc is a Vans vulc. They ll never be any different to skate, because they ve got a solid fanbase that buys them.
If you like the authentic but they are to flimsy for you, the eras are basically the authentic premium for the same price
DCs next... Possibly..... maybe ?
Ik the old skools are almost the same thing but please do them 🙏
Can you do a review for the Nike sb blazer low pro GT?
Yo Christian can you please try skating the Lakai Carroll plzzzz
