I purchased these about a month ago and love them! I now have two pair of Supra shoes that I own, both of which are from www.suprashoesmvp.com! I love these black TUF Vaider's they are extremely comfortable. I’d have to say more comfy than the first Vaiders I bought. They do a great job of repelling dirt and water. I spilled Pepsi on them; it went inside the shoe because it was lying sideways on the floor. But they cleaned up very nicely. Now they look just as they did out of the box. Oh yeah, and I don’t skate as much anymore but these shoes are very good for skating. Vulcanized sole makes so you can feel the board beneath your feet
