Awesome shoes.
These shoes are great. So comfortable
I bought these for my husband and he loves them. The colors are great and he says they are very comfortable.
Excellent shoes for wearing at work and even walking around campus and driving. The first day of wearing it may feel a bit narrow at the toe area where the laces attach in some attachment around the base of the tongue but after the first day of wearing them it feels like it looses up and becomes much more comfortable.I love how the shoes feel and the colors. I swapped out the black laces (Which are really really long) for some shorter black and white laces that look pretty rad with these shoes. I think GLOBE runs a bit smaller than a few of the other skate shoes brand, (in which I got an 8 in their shoes before and always felt the tip of the shoe was too narrow), so I got half size better which fit like I expected it to fit. Perhaps its not that its the shoe is smaller than others its just the tip so I wanted a bit more space for toes up there.Otherwise, definitely worth the $60 I spent for these shoes and will definitely keep buying from GLOBE
Just as expected from Globe
When I bought these I was worried about them not fitting. They not only fit, but feel amazing and was exactly what I was looking for in a skate shoe. From the box they look great and fit pretty good, I do have to lace them differently but I usually have to anyway so that wasn't a problem.The insoles are pretty good for most skating if you're a lighter person, I had to swap them out with the ones I normally use and again that's something I do anyway (which i think most people that skate do also).As for durability they've held up nicely and still pretty new. I've had them for I think a month by now and they still hold and grip like they did from the box, and I skate just about every day when the weather permits. These are my go to, and have replaced my last pair of skate shoes.Im definitely sticking with Globe when I buy my next pair of shoes.
I recommend to order a size up from what you normally wear… I wear a size 11, I ordered these and oddly they are 11 but too small. So I had to return them and re-ordered 11.5 (fingers cross they fit).Globe are great skate shoes and are comfy. I am not knocking down any stars.
