Do Skagg highs have a breakin period? Getting some heel pain during my first few wears.

My heels were a bit raw when I sized down half, but I felt it was better in the long run as they broke in nicely and are some of the most comfortable shoes I own as far as sneakers.

Unrelated- can anybody confirm if the social sculpture shirt damage is a new fit? Looks to be so, but the brand never highlights that other than the measurements looking a bit larger.

Which skags are you referring to? There are two constructions basically : normal vulcanized construction with poron insert for most of them, while the High G as well as the American flag outsole ones are Goodyear made with leather insole and cork midsole so they are stiffer (particularly the American flag ones, which removable insole is cork).

I believe it is the normal vulcanized construction version. This is the shoe in question. https://kith.com/products/vs119101001005-wht

I found my pair hard at the beginning but they did break in after about 10 wears.

Yeah, fits differently. Slightly droopier shoulders and moderate A-frame waist. Got the FW20 Crash and sized down by one

As good a Vsvm trifecta as it gets

Agreed.

You get your Thorson II yet? Curious how it looks on in a 3 or 4.

What’s the sizing on jumbo crews like? I’m 5’7 145. Should I go for a 1 or 2?

 

[Retlas]

I’m the same height but 170lbs ... I go for a 2 so i am pretty sure you could do a 1.
