Adidas Tyshawn 2: A 9/10 Skate Shoe Review

The adidas Tyshawn 2 is here and it is a BANGER OF A SKATE SHOE. Tyshawn and adidas definitely went CRAZY putting this skate shoe together and it has a lot of really good features. The most important features are the Duo Layered Toe Box and the Lightning Strike Midsole. Those two features alone upgrade the Tyshawn 2 far beyond the original Tyshawn and the Tyshawn Low. These skate shoes have treated me really well and I find myself skateboarding more confidently and I feel like I look good in the shoe and for a leather skate shoe, these really grip the board well! Hope you guys enjoy this review/first impressions vid. Make sure you guys subscribe to keep up with this Tyshawn 2 Journey! #skateboarding #adidas #adidasskateboarding #skateshoes #sneakers

great breakdown

[@JaySkateDay]

Thanks fam!

[@24hrtechpointroberts22]

I love the white upper with the black sole, clean look ass look!

[@JaySkateDay]

It’s such a sick look honestly!

[@dneck]

compared to the first tyshawns and especially the tyshawn low (the low and mid are quite different) how WIDE or Narrow are these? I'm hoping as wide or wider. If narrower than the OG please let me know!

[@JaySkateDay]

These are wider than both the OG and the low. It’s kinda interesting how different these are from the originals. It’s not an insane difference in fit but they are wider over all but the toe is sharper. Best way I can say it is that these have more of a fine tip like the busenitz vulc but a wider fit than them.

[@dneck]

@@JaySkateDay ok word. wider is my only wishlist item for this shoe. however the busenitz and its pointy toe is not my fav shoe. gonna try the all black ones, they look sick, thanks for the quick reply. BTW skatepark of tampa has these and you can get 30% off thru 7/5 with the code on their homepage BOOM30 , no i don't work for them but skated there once and it was sick

[@andrewcruz8470]

I'd like see those pairs mid top.💯👍

[@JaySkateDay]

Same here. It would be really dope to see.

[@abelalaniz9158]

most important question... does it have tongue centering straps????

[@JaySkateDay]

It does not unfortunately.

[@abelalaniz9158]

@@JaySkateDay why are these companies not including the most basic of items... like hello i would like the tongue centered and not have to have my shoes tight so it doesn't do the whole shift to the side business.... this makes me sad because they literally nailed it design wise like 10000% best looking shoe in the adidas line up and honestly probably a dunk contender... now i understand with the tj1 since it was very mid top-esk but the low version full paul wall tongue action... insert face palm emoji here

[@hou5eheadjason]

I like the way it looks from looking down at the shoe point of view

[@lamambas9390]

Do they feel as narrow as they look?

[@JaySkateDay]

Surprisingly they don’t. I feel like they feel a little more roomy than his first shoe

[@Wooosylucy]

How’s the sizing because with some adidas im 8 and some im 8.5

[@JaySkateDay]

Best way I can explain this is whatever you got in the first Tyshawn or the Tyshawn low stick to that same size if those fit you right. If you’ve worn the busenitz or the Nora’s before I’d get the same size in those if you haven’t done Tyshawn’s shoe before. For me all of these shoes fit me true to size so I get the same size in them all.

[@Markcurb]

Adidas 440s?

[@JaySkateDay]

Lol let’s not highlight this mess up 😭 I was comparing these to the last shoe I skated in all leather which was the new balance 440s but I slipped up.

[@Markcurb]

@@JaySkateDay I mean the 440s is a great shoe stylistically and for skateboarding though the new Tyshawn’s look more protective

[@JaySkateDay]

@@Markcurb the funny thing about it is you’re exactly right because the Tyshawn’s 2 is more protective for sure. I truly do like this shoe and I’ve been wearing it every day since I bought them which is kinda rare for me to do when I first get a new skate shoe. I do also love the fact that I’m not struggling to find grip in these leather shoes

[@Herb_St]

I love the look of these! I wish the leather wasn’t brown when the white wears away though! I might get a pair when they have suede or nubuck. I love leather shoes just not so much for skating.

[@JaySkateDay]

Hopefully the suede ones drop really soon. I also hope they use the tongue straps on the inside.

[@Creatuure]

about to start posting reviews myself, loved the shoe until skating it. and easily one of the worst shoes I have ever skated.

[@JaySkateDay]

Really?! I’m honestly surprised. What made it so bad?

[@Creatuure]

@@JaySkateDay hurts my toes, the inner part of the toecap like on the outside of my shoes is ripping somehow. Wont get tight, even with me tying it as tight as I can it slips right off. Constantly comes untied, and it has the durability of a dollar store t-shirt. They only have 6 hours of skating on them too. After the first session the side piece of the toe cap where you ollie was falling off and I had to shoe goo it on.

[@NitrroO]

This color way so fire and trick look nice as well fire 🔥

[@JaySkateDay]

Honestly I like it a lot man! Thank you for the love bro!

[@dneck]

cool clips that garage spot looks awesome! nice flips and BS 180 bruh!

[@JaySkateDay]

Thank you fr! That was my first time skating that spot, those shoes, and that board setup

[@RoninSkateClan]

Yoooo do the Lakai Griffin Gass!! No one has done one yet and I have been through 2 pairs! Some of the best I’ve had on my feet in a long time

[@JaySkateDay]

I may have to see what’s going on with those

[@hou5eheadjason]

update I just got mine in the mail today .

[@JaySkateDay]

Oh snap what’s your first impressions?

[@TechLurker]

cool shoe but if it wasn't for his name on it i'd think it was another aloha shoe or lucas puig pro model, there's literally nothing that was carried over by the first tyshawn.. its like adidas gave up and was like lets just put tyshawns name on it.. it really looks like a mashup of the aloha super and old puig pro models

[@DrRDW]

Either way, it's a clean shoe.

[@JaySkateDay]

It does look like the aloha and the Puig had a kid honestly. I know he picked from models already made in the past for this one. He did the same for the first but I think the first one had a little more of a personal twist in it than these did. I could be wrong though.

[@JaySkateDay]

Definitely a clean shoe I like em a lot

[@FrankEspinoza115]

Man’s got the TJ shoes,board brand and hardware 💪🏽

[@JaySkateDay]

Haha exactly. I had to do it correct 🤣

[@vdostarr]

I love king boards

[@FrankEspinoza115]

@@vdostarr are they an exact FA shape but PS Stix?

[@vdostarr]

I’ve never personally had an FA board & I’m not sure what woodshop lol. They do have a big ass nose tho & I would say steep concave

[@outkast334]

No tongue strap? Thanks for the review fam

[@JaySkateDay]

No tongue strap

Bro I’m blessed to have it

[@DomanicRenik]

This review/breakdown has me so interested 😭

[@JaySkateDay]

Let’s go! That means I’m doing alright!

[@TheKikocamaclang]

Any tongue straps my g? If none, does it move around whenever you skate them?

[@JaySkateDay]

No tongue straps but I don’t have an issue of it’s sliding around at all really.

[@TheKikocamaclang]

@@JaySkateDay thanks!

[@JaySkateDay]

Right? Like how dare a shoe cost less than that 🫠

[@qtrage6830]

What do you do for work my man

[@JaySkateDay]

I work in tech at the moment but I used to work for Vans, adidas, Zumiez, and got a lot of behind the scenes work done with my Shoe trade.
