They're great. I do need new ones though. They are ripping and I have worn out the soles. I better get another pair ordered.

How easily does the mesh and stuff rip? Also how do the sizes run? I ordered mine about 1 size small (i was gonna go half a size but it's all they had) because i like my wakeskate shoes to fit a little tight. Oh, and please tell me they don't fossilize like the Byerly's. I hated that haha Mad

Slapdown they've held up really well. I think I've skated them atleast once a day for the last three months solid. they don't fossilize or rip that easily. and I think you are on the right track with about a size or half size smaller. I usually go a halfsize smaller and didn't this time and wished I did.

best shoes ive ever wakeskated in.
very comfy. they feel like normal skate shoes not dry sponges.
they dont dry as fast as other mesh shoes but they are more durable and and more comfortable.
also the sole is awesome. you can really feel the board compared to the otehr sole that dvs uses on their mesh shoes.

Gnarly Dancer 42, Same here but i went 10. NOWHERE had 10.5's Sad

Do you think they'll be ight? Or are 10.5's already pretty tight?

Just got them in (♥ Zappos free overnight shipping) and boy do they feel sweet. I can't wait to get them out on the water. The sizing is perfect. Not too big or small.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm in love Wink
