Got them on sale for $29. Extremely comfortable, they run a tiny bit big. Love those insoles and they grip like all ****. Seem like they might actually hold up for a while. A bit big and gaudy as far as looks go. But for that price with all that tech in the shoes, very happy with my purchase.

Bes show company hands down

First, so you don't have to read so far, the SIZING. My normal shoe size is 11.5/12. BUT, in Accel OG, Quattro, Silo SC, and probably all other capsule eS shoes, I wear a 13. 12 DOES NOT FIT. For the Caspian 11.5 is PERFECT. I initially orders a 13, and there was 1.5" of room (two thumb widths). Returned and ordered the 11.5 which has a hair less than 1 thumb width, which is perfect.
I've moved away from vulcanized shoes since they usually hurt my feet a lot, so the Accel OG's are my go to because they are excellent all around. I use my skate shoes as my daily drivers, so I do EVERYTHING in them, including work. The Caspian has to be the most comfortable Vulcanized shoe I've ever worn. I've been using them as my daily drivers just like I would the Accels and they are awesome. Board feel is killer. They feel like what you'd expect from a vulcanized shoe, just way more comfortable because of the STI insoles and the way the shoe is padded. The Accel OG's to me are the GOAT, but from now on I will always have a pair of Caspian's on deck.

As far as durability goes, I've been wearing the shoes for a few weeks now, but only skated them once. From one session, they seem like they'll be comparable to an Accel OG, but it's hard to say.

Now, GO GET YOU A PAIR.

I LOVE this shoes!!!

The Caspian is one of my favorite shoes. Not too thin on the soul, A lot of flex and movement, vulcanize sides grip just like glue, excellent bored feel, stylist yet no nonsense upper, and sturdy construction on a budget. Since these shoes have a lot less padding in them, they run a half size too big, so if you’re really into it, get a half size small, and they’ll fit you well. Put a pair of these shoes on, and there’s a noticeable difference over any other company in comfort, wear, and performance. I guarantee you these shoes will not do you wrong. Thanks!
