There is no other shoe on the market like the wino cruiser. Please bring it back.
Just bought a second pair, the first pair didn't last more than a couple months, the back part of the shoe like cracked or basically fell apart inside of the shoe. I have a habit of slipping the shoes on instead of tying each time. IMO that's why I choose Emerica shoes in the first place for the additional elastic. I have tried a handful of different shoes and usually the back inner support piece breaks in half and then starts cutting into your heel. This shoe broke down faster and even more than other models. That being said it was too short of a timeline after getting used to a set up. So i'm going for another round and will be more cautious about slipping them on. Also probably worth mentioning i'm not riding street. I have been using these on a Summerboard and sometimes on a Freebord. I'd say that my preference would be "TILT G6 Vulc" but it seems discontinued.

These shoes are awesome, solid feel.. whether you just want to wear them or skate them..
I’ve been wearing these shoes for about 3 weeks and the cheap plastic lining inside the heel has already shattered. So now I can’t wear them without shards of plastic constantly digging in to my heels at every step. Haven’t even skated in them, just wearing them to work.

These are really close to being shoes and not sneakers. The back, the heel, has no cushion and the front, the toe tip, is a sharpens a little, like a formal shoe. They are very pretty. Would not use them as a sport sneaker, other than that it's the kind of shoe for any occasion really. Confortable, light and handsome. I like that they have a toe box a little bit wider than the other Emerica's I have. They are super handsome and I like the quality of the overall construction. Shoey sneakers. Shneakers. Shnoes? Snoes? I love them don't get it twisted but the Low vulc are still better in my opinion. I repeat, above everything: HANDSOME.

I thoroughly enjoy stepping into my black Wino Standards with a single gold lace hole on each face of both shoes. These things are badass. I mostly wear basic ass Vans. I love them but they don’t support my back very well. The Wino’s are like a leveled up pair Vans. My back thinks them. My soul thanks them for helping me shred better. Great shoe. Great review. Five stars to the sky.
