Has anyone ever tried longboarding in these?

[D_Rezz]

I think it would be like lonboarding in bare feet but with protection on your soles. Could be great! I found them in an architectural magazine that I like to read.





Vibram FiveFingers: Classic

those look SICK! I want a pair.
which mag? Metropolis? Dwell? If I don't read it, I want to!

they'd probably last about a day of skating... look comfortable though


i'll stick to my lakai's

[Harry]

haha, those look pretty fun. i wonder how well our feet would fit in them though, some peoples feet are alot difffenent than others (toe size and length, that kind of stuff)

The magazine is called AZURE its a Canadian magazine but still really good. I'm thinking of getting a pair of these on the site it says people hike in them and what not so they must be durable though I'm not so sure how much foot breaking they would take.

those suck! i got a pair when i hiked the John Muir trail cause theyre super light. Basicly the toes are uncumfertable there is almost no sole. and they fall off when you bend your foot. plus they have no arch support. I would recomend against them.

i'm betting that they're way too expensive and not durable enough to be worth it for longboarding. well, atleast not speedboarding w/ the high speed footbraking and whatnot. and i like laces so i can snug my shoes down tight to my feets!!

Cool man good thing I didn't go ahead with buying them. Its too bad theyre not very good though. Pushing barefoot is pretty fun and you feel super connected to the board but it suckssss when you catch the tip of your bigtoe on the pavement lol

I bet you'll find a way to break your toes

Try a pair of aqua socks the sole is a bit thicker and they stay on but you dont feel as thou you are wearing shoes.

Lol fair enough

[yetti123]

i've tried the sanuk things
there great shoes for the summer but i don't know about for boarding it's like a flip flop

[Tex202]

my friend has a pair of sanuks and he likes them. not good for boarding but apparently they make your feet stronger which makes you a better surfer which indirectly makes you a better longboarder

I did.
and some of the stitching came apart when i look at them after a sesh.
I dunno if footbraking did it or the griptape.
these shoes are made for watersports (not of the porn kind, but maybe).

some tabi boots are stronger and cheaper.
