I’ve been skating for about 20 years and the vans 112 are definitely my favorite

[@thepaper888]

Dear George, I was wondering, have you ever gone to the vans website, if you haven't you can customize every single part of your shoe, it can be any color or pattern, you can upload an image and have it on there. Basically I'm just wondering if you were to do so from the website out of the choices of skate shoes available (only certain models you can customize) which would you choose? I know pro model shoes are better usually but from the basic sk8 shoes they offer that you can customize which would you think is best? P.s. you can customize backpacks also.

[@999spot5]

u can change all the canvas to suede as well

[@NekroFelixDaCat]

Just checked it out a year down the road. its pretty sick. All that customization but no option to make them a good shoe.

[@RavenMoon1989z]

I did not know that's, that's pretty awesome lol

[@jimmer3663]

YESSS! i need some new shoes right now as well thanks for making this video and making quarantine better

[@3gt4r33]

Hey George I was wondering if you could make a video about how you deal with injuries, I recently hurt my foot and have been going insane not being able to skate to my full potential.

[@PHeMoX]

It probably depends so much on the type of injury. I can't speak for George, but I hear a lot of people try switch stuff more when they had an injury and try to do different tricks that don't affect whichever foot got hurt most. But maybe taking it easy is what helps more in terms of recovering, especially true for sprained ankles. I _did_ notice I prefer the puffy shoes, with some protection and a decent insole for any type of impact. That greatly reduces injuries, including basic stuff like soar knees and roughed up ankles from rougher streets. I think cupsoles are going to be my go-to shoes for now, probably the Es Accel OG I currently got. So, fingers crossed for hoping they will keep making those for a while.

[@mtmosher08]

not to shamelessly self promote but i'm also dealing with an injury and just made a video about how to skate with one. maybe it can help?

[@zestmaster4207]

Yeah I recently gave myself shin splints by skating too much, and I’m going insane waiting for it to heal

[@brennanbrooker9372]

cruiser board with big soft wheels, push switch if dominant foot is messed up. ride a bike for knee rehab. do a 100 push up a day challenge so you can do street plants when your foot heals.

[@stonehengephallus]

Skate Vlog About Nothing hey, at least it’s not random and is relevant to the comment, so, you’re fine, you are giving advice and not butting in like others, I’ll certainly give you a sub tho!

[@grim5113]

I have the Kyle Walker Pro's and they are the most comfortable vans I have ever owned. The Chima 2's I couldn't even walk out of the mall with them. They felt well constructed on the sole but the top really bothered me and it felt like the shoes didn't absorb anything.

[@N.ro9000]

The CTAS pros are great. Improper sizing could definitely make you hate them but I’d say that shoe is at least a solid B. I think maybe you should try them one more time but with the accurate sizing. Super worth it.

We need to eduskate about skastainability in the skate industry. Shoes. Decks. Trucks. Wheels. Bushings. Mainly decks and shoes though. Thanks for the reviews.

[@BHndThBAR]

Try out the Emerica Romero’s. I love the feel the suede has. They are also super light without sacrificing any cushion in the heel. The only thing I can say negative is before they are broken in, they dig into the back of the ankle a little bit. But once they’re softened up they are amazing

[@BlackMarketHoney]

Great idea for a video chief! My go to shoes are Half cab pro and Sk8 hi pro. If you order Half cabs, make sure they have full suede around the ankle cuff. The current Periscope colour way has this. Some colour ways have a fabric ankle cuff which gets crushed or tears really quickly. Also, I have had a couple of pairs of Sk8 hi with a cup sole instead of vulcanised. These easily lasted twice as long and feel more structured. There is a Sk8 hi pro bmx version right now with the cup sole. I like Vans not because I think Vans make an especially good shoe, but because their sizing is really consistent. I ordered 3 different models of Adidas last year in US 10 and each pair were a different size. I love the Adidas brand, but I was really disappointed that the sizing was so inconsistent. So much for German precision! All the best, Rich in Sweden.
