Circa AL50

I really like these shoes but I DO NOT recommend them because mine fell apart at the toe on the bottom very quickly (as did other reviewers'). I do recommend them, however, if you play the drums like I do because they are lighweight and allow your feet agility and a good sense of movement. Also, if you have mastered the art of ShoeGooing then these will probably be the shoes for you.

If you like the looks of these shoes I suggest you try the Emerica Reynolds 3's.

Good shoes for a good price and yah I think the Circa AL50 are pretty sweet.

While wearing the Circa AL50 skate shoes for one week I didn't skate or ride a bike. I just wore them. They fell apart from the sides of the sole. I can't recommend these shoes to anyone, even though they are very comfortable.

Had the Circa AL50 6 weeks and they are still perfectally skateable. Ok, the stiching may have come off, and the white leather may be quite scratched, but ther are no holes and the sole hasn't lost much grip at all. The board feel is so good with the old skool style sole.

The Circa AL50 is basically the exact same model as the circa AL202 model. The designer of the pro model shoe Adrian Lopez wanted has 2nd shoe to be a cheaper shoe for all skaters but he used the same aspects of the al202 for his second model the al50. Probably the only difference is the looks of the shoe, it looks similar to the first one. Cheaper material has been used the material made for the shoe is hard and stiff especially in the heel area, even after its broken through its not as flexible and easy as other skate shoes.
