After buying some Nike 6.0's., I noticed some things I liked, and some things I didnt like.
Pros- The Nike 6.0 has great cushion, almost like a gel when you slide your foot in, making it very comfortable and easy to walk/skate long distances in without your feet hurting. Also, the holes in the front of the shoe allow air to pass through, keeping your feet cool. Another thing that makes these shoes popular is that they come in almost every size, from kids to adult sizes.
Cons- The Nike 6.0's have a very thin tounge and a pretty thin outer lining, making it easier to feel the board hitting you, and more prone to ankle rolling. Not really a con, but since this shoe is made of a fabric, it is easier to rip and harder to clean.
Boardfeel- Overall this shoe has great boardfeel. Not bulky at all, so its almost like riding your board without shoes, which is a great feeling.
Look- The Nike has a very good look, from high-top to low top. The Nike is also available in many different color schemes, ranging from red/white to black/yellow. Ive had many compliments on this shoe.
Price- Heres where most kids our age quit looking at this shoe. The shoe cost me 75.00 at PacSun. I would say it was a little bit high.
Grip- As I said earlier, this shoe provides excellent grip. Since its so light and thin, it gives me a better feel for the board. The fabric on the shoes grips the griptape well and the bottom of the shoe has rigid pattern, for maximum grip.
Durability- The durability of this shoe is just mediocre. Due to its thin structure, I noticed after a few sessions, that the stitching was coming apart and the fabric becoming worn due to the rub on the griptape.
Overall- Overall I would give this shoe a 7.5/10 due to its pros and cons. A great looking shoe, with great feel and great comfort, but not worth the 75.00 in my opinion.
So if you have any questions about this shoe, feel free to PM me and i'll try and help you out best i can.
