Features
Sole
Vulcanized - “Vulc” shoes are light, flexible and break in quickly. These don't provide as much foot protection as cupsoles, but they are preferred if you’re looking for good board feel in a shoe with less weight and bulk.
Details
Mesh Tongue - Allows for greater breathability which means your feet feel better while you're shredding that 'crete.

New Balance Numeric 272 Skate Shoes - (vegan) black/gum
I saw another reviewer mention the toe box on these being the biggest they'd ever found. It's glorious. I don't skate, I Onewheel but man are these good. I mostly ride in Nike SB's for the board feel but this is the best shoe I've ever rode in. Size 13 and the shoe isn't big, it fit's like a shoe should but it doesn't squeeze my toe tips or the sides of my foot in the toe box. I will buy these again without a doubt. My new favorite shoe.

New Balance Numeric 272 Skate Shoes - sea salt/navy
Very comfortable after switching from vans old skool, and I can already tell they are more durable after only a couple weeks. I especially love the wide toe box, it's extremely hard to find skate shoes that aren't super narrow. I tried on 6 different pairs of shoes at zumies to see which ones fit the best for my wide, flat feet and these took the cake (they didn't have the size/color I wanted so I ordered them here instead. would rather support tactics anyway)

New Balance Numeric 272 Skate Shoes
Easily the most comfortable skate shoes I've worn. Had multiple pairs of nike sb and vans before trying these. I have pretty wide and flat feet and the toe box on these is the widest of any shoe I've tried. They also appear to be super durable too but time will tell. They breathe great too. NB numerics are crazy underrated! Pick up a pair on sale and give em a shot!
