Hi

Could someone please tell me by experience about the size on this ones?

I'm 10.5 US on the usual sk8 his, so must I buy the same on this ones or must I buy 11?

As this ones looks like more cushioned than the regular sk8 His.

Thanks
Rob.

I would say unless you have a wider foot, stay true to size man.

I wear 8.5 in all vans (the occasional 9 if I'm thirsty).

Copped a 8.5 for the black sk8-his (shout to the silo fam!) and they fit like a dream.

Good luck!

Yeah, the Gel soles that Vans has been using on most Syndicates and Pros now days, allows for a more true to size fit. If the insole is like the older style, which is all PU foam, then it's thicker and you probably want to size up a half size. It's also more comfy, and Vault seems to still use that one.

Any other opinion?

I received my navy sk8 and must say I feel them narrower than the common sk8 HIs
Same happened to me rescently with a Vault SK8 HI, exactly the camo with pocket ones.

I would prefer that they run snug width wise, especially with how much these break in and mold to your foot. I am coming from the perspective of having a narrow foot, mind you....but there is nothing worse than a shoe thats sloppy width wise.....Experimenting with other insoles you have in other vans styles may help you mix / match to find the perfect combination + fit.
