Love these SUPRA SKYTOP SHOES! Held up awesome for me, but the only skating I do is an occasional cruise on my long board, so I can t say for the skaters out there. If you want these just to wear then get them, get them, get them! They re super comfy and if you need extra support the sole is removable! I highly recommend this shoe as well as www.suprashoesgoods.com!
