These shoes are very durable and fit well on the feet. The construction of the shoe is flawless, and i have owned two pairs of these shoes. Id recommend getting a different pair of lakais or SB's over these shoes just for looks, but these are very good shoes for the price.
Pros: long lasting soles, doesn't rip, durable, comfortable

This shoe has It's pros and cons for sure. Example- I didn't like it because the bottom is thick and i felt 2 feet above the board. But, they had really nice board feel, and flexibility. Also, they tore very easily. After 2 months of skating every other day, They had a complete hole at the bottom, the lakai sign fell off, and my big toe popped out. It was rediculous. I would not recomend this if you want a durable shoe.
Pros: breaks in easy, good board feel, cool colors, stylish, comfortable, good grip
Cons: poor ankle support, sole loses grip, rips easy, soles wear out, laces break easily, non-durable, poor cushioning

These shoes were OK but they just kind of ripped fast and bad. the lakai sign ripped off and the shoelaces ripped. then soon i got a hole and started to rip my sock. Sole weared out pretty fast too but these shoes were durable and had good board feel and were comfortable too but these were alright i guess i would recommend them.
Pros: breaks in easy, looks great, good board feel, durable, good cushioning

I was told about manchester selects by a friend to get them so I did. I was not very pleased with the durability in the shoes. They ripped in the first week and the lakai logo was almost peeled off. I like some of the other lakais too but these to me were just terrible.

I got this shoe 2 and a half weeks ago, and have been skating it most days. After a day or 2 the side panel and toe started to wear down, but I have not yet ripped them. They are really comfortable and are pretty durable if you get them in suede.
Pros: breaks in easy, good board feel, stylish, durable, comfortable, good grip

I got these shoes (the black and gum) over a year ago. I'm ALWAYS skating in these bad bears. There's barely any visible damage or common wear and tear associated with skating. These shoes are super comfortable, relialble, gnarly looking.
Pros: breaks in easy, looks great, good board feel, stylish, doesn't rip, durable, laces don't break, comfortable, good grip

I was skating the other day and had to stop and revel at the comfort of these shoes. Breaking them in and making a transition from the trashed pumas I was wearing before was hard and these felt cumbersome, but after maybe 30 hours of ride time they show little noticeable wear where it's usually evident, and are more comfortable than slippers.
Pros: breaks in easy, looks great, good board feel, cool colors, stylish, durable, comfortable, good grip
