Emerica The Tilt

i reccomend the Emerica The Tilt skate shoes to anyone, no one can tell you different. a lot of board feel. Absolutely nothing is wrong with this shoe

This shoe has the most durable suede and grip of any skate shoe I've ever worn. The downside is that it is easy to bruise your heels and the collar is low on the shoe so it isn't the best thing for the ankles. Change out the insoles for some Reynolds insoles, Dr. Scholl's, or Crosstrainers if you buy these, otherwise you WILL hurt your heels, even on small impact. But if you don't skate a lot of big drops then give these shoes a chance, but they may be hard to find now since they are an old model

I wish they still made these.. if they do someone find me

The Emerica Tilts were invincible to me actually. They lasted a good four months of constant flipping. I had the olive coloured model which i bought for 40$ from my local skate shop. These were my favorites to skate in because of the simple stylish look of it. Most people say that suede sucks because it rips fast but for me its one of the most long lasting shoe because it wears down instead of leaving a spot behind like leather. I've skated both the older versions of the tilts which did not feature sti foam level 2 (with integrated heel counter for stability lol) but they both skated amazing because sti foam is just an insole which doesn't flatten out fast and is also kinda cushiony for when your skating stairs. These shoes have amazing flick for the kickflip area and doesn't wear out too fast for the areas in which you do your heelflips. The shoe also has loads of perfs scattered around the shoe which ensures that your feet dont get sweaty and has this white layer under the suede when it rips which increases the longevity of the shoe. Buy the Emerica Tilts if your looking for a cheap, highly skateable, stylish looking shoe. It performed well enough for me and i think that it will also do you guys great.

All in all, the Tilt is a faithful replica of the original and much loved Emerica MJ1, perhaps the best skateshoe of all time. It also shares many production techniques with the eS accel, so you know with a heritage like that it's going to be good!

The Tilt is a very simple low key shoe, but with a lot of retro styling and is one of the best looking shoes on the market. This simplicity is found throughout the shoe: a no-nonsense grippy sole, a hard wearing toe reinforced with rubber which continues to wear after the suede is torn, brilliant board feel and all round an extremely comfortable shoe which seems to get better the more it is worn.

On the down side, this simplicity comes at the cost of heel and ankle support, and doesn't have any of the tech features some shoes have like Velcro straps, rubber toecaps, gel/air cushioning etc.

In conclusion, if you're after a simple effective and cheap skate shoe the Tilt could very well be one for you, it does everything well and nothing badly. Highly recommended.

The Emerica The Tilt skate shoes are bad! Don't buy them. They ripped after one day of skating. If you are going to get them, I'd recommend you get the synthetic meterial other than the sued, because they would last maybe a week longer.

I've had 2 pairs of these Emerica The Tilt. I had a pair of dc's and I ripped those in a week. these shoes ripped a tiny bit after about 2 months. They have awesome grip. I didn't even rip a hole in the bottom of them. They are the most comfortless shoes I've ever had.

The Emerica The Tilt are the only emerica`s you could find here in manila. They're so widespread here.

I bought the suede/black/gum type. What's really annoying about these shoes is the toe cap. It looks kind of weird. I hate the fact it doesn't have an Ollie pad, all skate shoes should have Ollie pads.

The first part of the shoe that gets the most abuse is the front/toe cap area. so I think shoe companies should always reinforce the front of the shoes. Triple stitching the toe cap is good, but still not great. you need thicker fronts to get the abuse.

Emerica The Tilt - These shoes are sick.

The Emerica The Tilt have lasted me longer than all my other shoes which where Globe, Etnies,Duffs and adio(which were the worst shoes ever). Anyway they have lasted me 6 months now but most shoes only last me three. The lace protection and grip is good and so is the leather, all that for £55.
