Hey, i'm just wondering which shoes will be better for street, i'm just a beginner (i know kickflips, fakie flips, 360 shove its and all that) and I don't go through shoes very fast. Please tell me which have better board feel and are more comfortable.
Thanks

i like the leo romero a lot.

but if their is a store near you with all of those shoes or 2 of the 3 then try them one and see what is more comfortable for you

Well, the Fallen Rippers hold up better if you looking for durability. Great boardfeel.

If you want style and comfort get the Romero's. Theyre less durable but the same amount of boardfeel.

Honestly, get the Ripper or the Rising Suns.

I bought the Leo Romero's in Green and I'll give you a quick review. I plan on posting a more detailed review after I get through skating them.

They have absolutely NO lace protection. My laces ripped the first day I wore them, but that's not the only thing that ripped. The stiches holding the right side of the shoe to the toecap ripped out on the first day. The side of the shoe is almost coming completely off and the toecap has a huge hole.

The only thing I liked about these shoes is the comfort. Although it feels weird to call them that considering my feet are always soaking wet when it rains.

I forgot to mention the sweat marks that show through your shoe. I'm not going to buy these shoes ever again, took away my faith in Emerica.

EDIT: Forgot to mention I've been skating them less than a month and the only thing holding them together is shoe goo.
