In terms of comfort, the Skate Authentic is mighty generous, numerous sources say. An experienced skater-slash-vlogger says that, compared with the Era S, "it's more comfortable." "My feet haven't felt uncomfortable while wearing them," says a non-professional reviewer. Yet another individual likens the comfort of the Skate Authentic to "plush clouds."
Here's a potential issue, though: a few sneakerheads said that the Skate Authentic's heel collar has the tendency to dig into the heel. To avoid getting blisters, one reviewer recommends covering the would-be-affected area with a sticky plaster (a.k.a. bandaid).

Stability and support are two of the main draws of the Skate Authentic. Sneaker fans are particularly stoked about the latter. "These are a big hit," says someone who’s on their feet all day. "I wear them all day, and my feet don't fatigue anymore," says another.
Joining these two qualities is the Skate Authentic's tenacity. "I have not had a slip in these," says a hairstylist who steps on hair clippings most of the time. We just wish we could say the same about the shoe's lackluster shock mitigation.
Less is more
Just like the OG model, the Skate Authentic is celebrated by quite a number of sneakerheads for its simplistic beauty. "I wore them with a tux, and they looked fantastic!" one reviewer said. I "absolutely love the design and style of this shoe," said another.
Wanted: A sturdier collar
While not really a deal breaker, the Skate Authentic's collar frays too soon, a couple of gear critics say. It's an issue that more likely occurs among skateboarders who like pulling off tricks that lead to collar abuse. If you're a casual skater or don't skate at all, this shouldn't be a problem.
Be one with the ground in the Skate Authentic
Sensitivity is among the things that rock in the true-to-size Vans x Spongebob Kids SK8 Mid Reissue Παιδικά Παπούτσια. A footgear vlogger says that "it does give you a lot of board feel."
Gives toes some space
There are those who adore the roominess of the Skate Authentic's toe box. "I can actually wiggle my toes in these," says a professional reviewer.
