Nike SB P. Rod V Rod Skate Shoes Review - Tactics.com

[BASEBALLfreakFORlife]

i wanna get these soooo bad

[SwanseaSkateboarding]

5th pro model

[TheSurfer101ify]

nike isnt a true skate shoe cuzz everyone is wearing them try lakais or emericas

[tacticsboardshop]

@TheSurfer101ify you are so uninformed...

[TheSurfer101ify]

@tacticsboardshop i skate lakai or emerica those are true

[milksteak74]

@TheSurfer101ify So because a large amount of people are wearing a shoe...it isn't "true". That makes no sense at all, sounds corny, and unfortunately youtube limits the length of my posts otherwise this would be a essay sized response to your comment to inform you why what you said was silly.

[EDGEx24xSKATERS]

I have those shoes

[MovieMan797]

sizes?

[tacticsboardshop]

@MovieMan797 available sizes are shown at Tactics.com

[KhaledRonaldo2000]

Nice Video Man :)

[Valete85]

i have been skating with those have them for 3 months and so far so good

[ninja987]

@Valete85 These are probably going to be my first skate shoes can you tell me how many days you skate per week and does it like...rip easily...make holes?...or does it still look good?

[EVALskateboarding1]

is this shoe true to size?

[beaskatanotahata]

would you pick these or the lakai manchester selects

[GDsk8z]

dude when u pulled out the insole u where like wtf is this skinny shit

[Tourretesisfunny]

these are one of the lightest shoes ive ever owned

[DanielPSKATE]

@tacticsboardshop Hi, which one is better? Nike SB VROD or Etnies Taylor LS??

[jhonattan1998]

i skate these right now,

i've skated it for 2 months now and there is not even one hole in it and thats long cuz normaly i  get holes after 2 weeks

[exxe49]

where can i get this nike sb?

[tacticsboardshop]

@exxe49 we don't have this color any more, but we have that shoe at Tactics.

[ssuurrviivoorr01]

tactics shipping to england is cheaper than skate warehouse by miles. :D

[ruggedstash]

What would you suggest for skating in these or the eS Square Two? Bet you love these annoying questions every few minutes....

[xXBeastyDrewXx]

@tacticsboardshop Benson, Should I get these or Lakai Manchesters?

[tacticsboardshop]

@xXBeastyDrewXx Lakai or Die, right?

[chriskirkeeng]

@xXBeastyDrewXx manchesters all the way

[sethcantskate]

@xXBeastyDrewXx Get the Lakai Encinos, I have them, they're amazing.

[TheMACKFilms]

Can you leas make a video of these on feet?

[xxHardkorex]

Benson ive skated with Emerica shoes and i want to try something new

Im thinking of getting Emerica Reynolds Cruisers or should i get Nike SBs

[tacticsboardshop]

@xxHardkorex if you want to get something new, why would you get another pair of Emerica shoes?

[ventuskeywielder]

@xxHardkorex if you like more boardfeel and durability,get janoskis or vulc rods. if you want tons of durability, but more protection and less board feel get blazers. all by nike sb

[legitskateboarding]

my laces ripped up pretty quick and the suede ripped with in about 3 weeks..but i skated them almost everyday

[mrflyboi51]

I got these in black and green everybody go check my video to see what it looks like and leave comments on what you think

[YoMateItsMEHerbie]

Do they fit smaller then the regular size of your foot?

[tacticsboardshop]

@YoMateItsMEHerbie the one I tried on fit true to size. -Benson

[toshskates]

hahaha priceless face at 1:02 FUCK YEAH

[xwigwango]

Where can I buy exactly those that are in the video ?

On tactics its not the same color

[razorkiller362]

these shoes are really good buy them

[toshskates]

@razorkiller362 how many month does it last man?!

[ThePtopia789]

what are your favorite skate shoes benson

[TheSkater552]

how long do they last?

i flip a lot!

[fourstarLRG]

i have these shoes and hoston ones, the insoles in the vrod is very thin so i switched it with the koston insoles which made it 10 times better

[lzexlnero]

these or the kostons?plz answerrrrr

[TheSkater552]

how long do they last?

[TheSkater552]

how long do they last?

[brandothehero]

Woulda got a pair but they cost like 140 bucks here so I got 6.0s same shoe just not a sb lol

[jhonattan1998]

@brandothehero sb and 6.0 are different man sb last longer i can know i've had both

[TheSnowaddict]

the insoles look super thin...

[machineguntongue]

All eS Ecosse have esuede too. And the laces are set back just like these PRod 5's.

Takes a day or two to break in and feel right as the flex point on the toebox feels like a slip-on shoe. But it does prevent lace abrasion without resorting to D3-style lace loops.

Ecosse's felt horrible the first three days (stiff and narrow) and eventually turned into a custom fit (no slack). Very similar to a kangaroo leather soccer shoe (Adidas Copa Mundial) that the Busenitz tongue pays tribute too.

[dyrdek2011]

go to nike id website you can customize these shoes there

[ROLOBSkateboarding]

niceee

[ROLOBSkateboarding]

ya las tengo sallllllllllllllllludooooooooo­ooos

NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCCCCC3

[SamuraiKid10]

keep up the good work Benson, I love and always look forward to the new shoe reviews

[ItzzzKevinnn]

i would buy these right now on tactics, but you guys dont carry 5s or 6s .

[tacticsboardshop]

@ItzzzKevinnn most men's sizes only go down to six and we usually start our size runs at 7 or 8.

[SchlechteGuteFreunde]

@tacticsboardshop hey benson do u still have them on tactics.com?

[tacticsboardshop]

@SchlechteGuteFreunde yeah, check the link in the video description.

[SchlechteGuteFreunde]

@tacticsboardshop ok thx, but which good skate shoe isn't made out of suede?



[ilikelife101]

@ItzzzKevinnn How old are you?? Thats pretty small, and you know what they say 'bout small feet...

[EverettJanisch]

Paper thin insoles. rip in a week. not good. thumbs down niggah

[thefreak809]

how durable are they? how long do they last?

[GALVANICSMILE]

I'm from the uk and I really like these shoes good job on reviewing them keep up the good work

[tacticsboardshop]

[ulala3150]

[tacticsboardshop]

[mcloughnog]

@tacticsboardshop hey benson,what would you say is the longest lasting or must durable to grip tape skate shoe.I dont mind how much it costs it just pisses me off when me shoes get ruined

[tacticsboardshop]

@mcloughnog the most durable? probably the Nike Zoom FP or any éS shoe with e-suede like the Keano or Square Two.

[xJustSkate]

i has em and they are awesomeee

[JershTheFilmer]

I WANT NOW!!! LOL

[ABen6498]

just a suggestion, something I like to hear about when I'm looking for new shoes, is any negatives. All shoes have a few. It would greatly be appreciated. Keep up the good work.

[thesuperfilms]

these or zoom Bruin in terms of longevity

[Sk8LiveLife]

[SlotGlassesGuy]

hey benson! Do these shoes come true to size?

[skateretard69]

[BAKERxXxDEATHWISH]

[arranturtonskater]

[ventuskeywielder]

[darkshadowskater]

hey benson have you skated in these because im thinking on getting these but not to sure if they last and skate really good

[alec3459]

pause at 0:42 tilt the screen back

[tacticsboardshop]

@alec3459 I'm not even going to try it, but the fact you did and then tilted the screen and then posted a comment makes me think you have waaay too much time on your hands. go skateboarding and stop watching youtube videos.

[subscribeyou98]

@alec3459 whts rong

[chuckielong1]

nike sb way 2 expensive for me

[tacticsboardshop]

@chuckielong1 we have a bunch of styles and colors ranging from $60-$75. Yeah, it's not the $50 like some other brands, but that's a pretty good price for some quality shoes if you ask me. -Benson

[mcloughnog]

@tacticsboardshop hey,what shoe would you say is the longest lasting or most durable against griptape?

[MAmoviesRS]

@chuckielong1 stop whining bitch.. where im from shoes are 100$

[StillL00king]

do you know if this comes in a 14?

[TheSultanofBLING]

I have them in Beige

They are awesome and they weigh nothing

[Tourretesisfunny]

@TheSultanofBLING same here is it the the denim swoosh with the khaki suede?

[mikepong121]

i saw those shoes a few days ago i was gonna get it but it was white and black and they were not gonna last long in my oppinion so i didnt get em but they are nice as hell

[MattTrebomb]

@mikepong121 How would you know if they werent gonna last long if youve never tried them?

[Thanh760]

he says it at 0:35

[SKETCHedits]

@Thanh760 i had these for a day and the laces ripped -_-

[yamaksi123]

[VansShoeGirl91]

[Weegi077]

PPL!!! on reviews of this shoe ppl say that these are really comfortable but. ES square 2. these shoes compared to the sqaure 2 is like comparing concrete and clouds. GOO with the square 2s!

[khalilz98]

Hey Benson, Im stuck between a couple of shoes, the Janoskis, The Vrods, Half Cabs, and Adidas Campus Vulcs

[nick1023097prescott]

@khalilz98 half caps for sure those ( at least for me they are the best shoes i ever had)

[nick1023097prescott]

@khalilz98 v rods they are great and lasted 5 months without breaking

[elementskate1337]

dude these are the lightest shoes i have ever held in my hand.

[SlyTendencies]

These skate good but durable, not really. 

[fuctinthebutt]

Durable? Mine ripped first session

[backdoorbandit56]

I'm thinking of buying these shoes from CCS, but how do they compare to the janoskis, which i currently have????

[tacticsboardshop]

@backdoorbandit56 why not just buy them from Tactics.com?

[skyking166]

@backdoorbandit56 your question cracked me up... your asking a guy from tactics about buying from CCS?

[deansmold]

Janoski wanna be's haha

[fssramps]

[TheDannyDao]

[jcskater96]

[DSAKNANTYE]

Hey Benson,what should i get to skate, the vulc rods or the prod 2.5

[UKFskateboarding]

These in the black/white colour way are really nice. They've lasted me pretty long and are really comfortable. This shoe is the full package.

[thatguythatskates]

@SuperEntertainment10 i had these same prods, and i went through them in about 3 months (normal) just bought the kostons yesterday but havent skated them yet cuz the rain

[tacticsboardshop]

@SuperEntertainment10 the Kostons are so sick.

[sk8erpalonis]

Hey Benson, do you get to keep the shoes after you review them?

[aaronjsk8101]

hey benson, when will u get the skytop 3s or if u get the 3s??

[PRodfan12]

HEY BENSON!! PLEASE ANSWER! WHICH CHOE SHOULD I SKATE WITH?? JANOSKIS OR V RODS??

[tacticsboardshop]

@PRodfan12 Janoskis on the right foot, V Rods on the left... mind blown.

[raphe9]

[tacticsboardshop]

[AdidasSk8er408]

[TheKyle444]

u should review the new Lakai shoes.

[TheKyle444]

You should review the new Lakai shoes.

[TheKyle444]

You Should review the new Lakai shoes.

[TheKyle444]

You Should review the new Lakai Manchester Selects as well as Cairo's, Rick's, and Marc's new models.

[baaskate]

if anyone knows, do they skate similar to the Janoskis but with a more protective upper? Was super physicked on the janoskis sole but am keen on a little more protective upper (little).

Cheers,

[thesteezwizz]

Sick ass shoe period.

[philiplinderberg]

hey Benson, should i get the p-rod 2.5, p-rod 4 or the vulc, I will buy the 5 when the come out

[MrJeffosaurus]

I love your reviews Benson, but you should show you wearing the shoe at the end of your videos, like this one, all the time.

[tacticsboardshop]

@MrJeffosaurus we don't always have shoes that fit me, so that's not always possible.

[MrJeffosaurus]

@tacticsboardshop oh thats sucks

[tacticsboardshop]

@1andonlysk8r I think those are some Fourstar Malto Jeans. -Benson

[DSAKNANTYE]

WHAT ARE THE BEST NIKE SB SHOES TO SKATE WITH???

[rowellsk8]

Shoe i get these or the chukkas

[tacticsboardshop]

@rowellsk8 get these.

[rahmliggett]

hey Benson do these last long



[tacticsboardshop]

@rahmliggett I've never skated them, but I'd assume they'd last as long as any other shoe.

[rowellsk8]

@tacticsboardshop should i get the chukkas or the rods? i have read good reviews on them, are they worth the money?

[MrDisturbedskater]

@rowellsk8 chukkas rip way too easy get these

[DominictheLegit]

So I've seen alot of negative comments on here about these shoes, so is it a good skate shoe overall?

[DJpolyD]

benson should i get v rods or p rod 5? plz tell me you preference

[tacticsboardshop]

@DJpolyD P rod 5

[DJpolyD]

@tacticsboardshop ok thanks

[TheSkippinRainbows]

These shoes are so good! I got them I'm amsterdame, holland like a month ago skated in them at least 50 times and the sole hasn't worn down yet because it's made out of this type of rubber that is like 80% plastic so it won't where down. Such sick shoes!!!!!!

[buffpnoy14]

no heel protection????

[okgo43]

these, or square two's?

[tacticsboardshop]

@okgo43 square 2

[countrykid141]

Benson please respond. I just got done wacthing the review that you did on the  P.Rod 5's and I was wondering are they his newest model? And when do they come out again? Not the vulcs

[tacticsboardshop]

@countrykid141 P Rod 5s come out some time this summer.

[rogahiznumba1]

these are so sick!

[emericaskater108]

benson, what will last longer? one piece toe cap or triple stitched toe cap? thanks

[tacticsboardshop]

@emericaskater108 one piece.

[emericaskater108]

@tacticsboardshop ok cool im thinkin about gettin these

[SkateChannel13]

[tacticsboardshop]

[SkateChannel13]
