When you need reliable and responsive cushioning for large stair sets, the BOOST™ foam featured in the midsole of these 3ST.004s is amazing. Not only does the foam absorb impact, it also returns a lot of energy back to you and Adidas was smart in wrapping this in rubber for durability. If you look at the top of the shoe you'll also notice a lack of stitching on the toe-box and vamp; this increases the life of your shoe since there's less to tear when you ollie.

Sole
Cupsole - Durable and shock-absorbing to provide the best impact protection against hard landings. Cupsoles generally last longer than a vulcanized sole but don't provide as much flexibility and board feel right out of the box.
Details
BOOST™ Foam - BOOST™ Foam cushioning technology increases energy return with each step. In the heat, in the cold and after countless miles, it still performs consistently and doesn’t lose its cushioning properties like standard EVA.
Molded PU Sockliner - Soft polyurethane insole for added comfort and protection.
GEOFIT® Collar Lining - GEOFIT® enhances fit and comfort by placing soft padding in areas that need support. You'll feel a snug fit with increased comfort.
Geoflex Outsole - Geoflex is an innovative tread pattern that provides superior grip and unmatched flex resulting in greater control and board feel.
Herringbone Tread - Creates amazing grip and board control.

Adidas 3ST.004 Skate Shoes - footwear white/footwear white/footwear white
Right outta the box they form right to your foot (little narrow in the middle) but a nice snug fit all around. The traction on grip tape is A1 and the flick is really good. Leather isn’t the best for skating traditional grip tape so i got some DKL non-abrasive grip and these shoes skate GREAT! The impact support is there as well as these insoles are very shock absorbent. and the midsole of the shoe is nice and thick near the heal for extra impact support, while the front of the midsole and insole thin out the give better board feel. It really does give you a good cup/vulc balance. very happy with these.
Great board-feel and the heel cushion is a game changer. The only con for me was the grip under the ball of my front foot wore down pretty quickly (probably from pivoting around to push and ollie). I like that there is no stitching in the ollie area and vent holes. Before this shoe I only skated Busenitz for 10 years. I liked the 3st.004 more than the Busenitz but they are more expensive.
