look, the baileys are slick. right now i have the jj1s and i like them but i would get the bailey boot if i had the money. and for “collin”, i use either the sinisters or jug. never tried sifika but i may switch it up.
Lovin the Valo.

They look like big ugly basketball shoes with wheels.

M12 + jordan sneakers + 150$ = valo.

everyone should send the entire skate back to valo, maybe if they get enough of them back they may get the point

“the Bailey skate is propably the best looking skate on the market right now… ”

if you are trying to look like the millions of skateboarders in the world this is the skate for you. They come out of the box looking like a pair of vans that have been skated for six months. The white fake leather is always already cracking when people get them.

this is a shel that has been around for about 20 years now, they can’t cost that much to make. compared to the M12 (which is the same exact skate) they are $120 more for only the boot. For that much money you can have a M12 with jug neoprenes, valo soles, and any frame and wheels you want. It would not be a big deal if they were only $130 for the entire skate but for $310 with frames that are unskateable, it is just plain fucked up there are any problems.

im sure theyre great skates but if liner sucks it really does make u feel crap.

Dudes, Bailey skated the shit out of this skate…he tested it over a year…the whole summer during his Europe trips and so on…Every fucking clip in the past is with that skate…also Cosi tested the shit out of it and some more people…I don’t know what should be wrong with those skates, but I just know that Valo rocks and that the Bailey skate is propably the best looking skate on the market right now…

I got these skates a few weeks ago and I LOVE THEM, all you people saying that the liners hurt are being lazy. Maybe you should get off your asses and do what Guillaume says, find a way to make them fit.

why won’t they just replace everyones liners. If you pay 230 for a boot you should get good liners. They fucked up so they should be the ones who have to pay, not the skater.

This is what happens when a product is not properly tested. I bet Bailey skated them for a week and said ok these are good, with no thaught to people with differnt shaped feet or wear and tear.

How long did you roll them for before “giving up” on the liner?

I haven’t rolled in the Bailey’s but I have had skates where the liner seemed to stiff and the problem usually goes away with general wear as they “soften up”.
