I used to wear Emericas a lot as a teenager and one of my preferred models was the Heretic because the rubber toe cap seemed to last longer than most shoes. Fast forward to 2025 and I got some of the newly remade Heretics and I really like them. They’re not as puffy as the originals and seem to have a little more board feel (thinner outsoles) than them too. The flick is great, but I had to change out the insoles to some Remind Insoles. The stock ones weren’t cutting it with my 33 year old feet. Haha. Overall, I love them and hope they keep them around for years to come!
These shoes are so comfortable and clean looking. I love them. They were one of my childhood favorite shoes back in school and now 33 years old and I now have multiple pairs of these shoes again. I love them, affordable durable and very clean.

The review the guy left about the heretics is bullshit.. it’s bound to happen one pair has a defect! I have bought emerica shoes since 2000 and have had so many over the years, including the reissue OG-1 3 colorways and brown heretics.. they are amazing for skating and comfy for every day use! Emerica is one of the last remaining skate companies that Nike or adidas couldn’t get rid of.. Emerica is badass and I have never had a problem with the shoes! **** yes to emerica love this company!!
I haven’t had these shoes for a month and the rubber toe is split open and the stitching is coming undone. Looks terrible. Will not buy from Emerica again.
I'm coming from 90s skate shoes... The actual quality is very low. Not a good feedback for me. I think is the last time I buy Emerica shoes
