The shoe is nice, nice sole, good looking but runs really small. They are uncomfortable because they are too small, but i bet they'd be good if they fit.
Cons: runs narrow, runs small

These shoes took forever to break in. The fit narrow and weird. Heel bruises for days. Good board feel for a cup sole after you break them in. Grip was pretty good at first but it wore down wicked fast and got all slippery. Really didnt like the flick. Didn't last as long as I would have liked. Lakai is sick but I didn't really like these. Could just be me though..
Pros: good board feel, cool colors, laces don't break
Cons: poor ankle support, sole loses grip, runs narrow, uncomfortable, rips easy, soles wear out, doesn't look good, poor grip, not very stylish, non-durable, poor cushioning, does not break in quickly

It fits very well on your feet and the style is sick! Super comfortable and it has a great wear feeling, I really loved it!
The only thing I did'nt like about the shoe is the suede, that isn't so resistent and any water os liquid that falls gets easy to dye the shoe.
Even though it has the suede problem, if you take care of it, it will be certainly one of the best shoes you'll wear!
Pros: breaks in easy, long lasting soles, looks great, cool colors, stylish, good cushioning, comfortable, good grip
Cons: non-durable

i usually don't buy lakais because they arnt very durable, but these looked promising. when i bought these i thought they'd be different than the other lakais but they arnt. when i started wearing them around the soles warped very oddly and the suede bent weird. then just today i started skating them and im already needing to shoe goo them. they have terrible flick for kickflips and i wouldnt really recommend these shoes if you do alot of flip tricks. very disappointing. it is a very awkward shoe.
Pros: stylish
Cons: uncomfortable, non-durable, poor cushioning, does not break in quickly, just plain awkward

Shoe feels super good out of the box and has great feel. I've only just stared skating it, but it seems like it will last a long time too as i only see minimal wear. Super stoked on these.
Pros: breaks in easy, long lasting soles, looks great, good board feel, stylish, durable, sole keeps grip a long time, comfortable, good grip
