Hi everyone I'm so glad to be soaping again after a ten year break. Currently rockin two pairs of Sylons with BBk's and just scored a pair of Royal blue express brand new off eBay for £1.25. (OH YES) Currently making a video with my old re-formed crew. Will hopefully have pics soon. So nice to see the sport is still alive and kicking and I truely miss my old Mr Wilsons (rip). Anyway sorry to go on,and lovely to meet you all.

You are "getting the band back together, that's bad ass. I look forward to your media. You are lucky to have a crew to do this with.

And £1.25 is a steal, mate. Nice find.

Thankyou for a warm welcome. Hopefully will be out tonight for a session. There is a long rail ive been meaning to session but its too awkward to access via my skates. Just out of interest does anyone have a pair of MR WILSONS in size 11/12 for sale (hilariously unlikely i know) I miss sweat stancing and fishbraining hand rails on things other that my skates so much. I monitor ebay daily but misssed a pair about 4 months ago, LOL.

Thankyou kowalski, we are getting old but I do feel lucky to have 'the last few' of the crew left. If you are ever in Portsmouth (UK) and fancy a session you are most welcome too soap with us, as is anyone who reads this.

You should look on eBay.de

It seems the Salomons were pretty popular in Germany.

I've seen a few pairs of Mr Wilson's on there recently. I got mine from a seller there. Their account started they wouldn't deliver out of Germany, but he didn't take much convincing.

Thankyou very much, have found a pair in size 11 alittle worn but no worries there. I cant remember from memory whether or not they are size for size AKA im a size 11 and they are a size 11 and will they be a good fit. Bought my last pair in 2000 so alittle hazy on this one. If anyone can help it would be most appreciated.

They are a smaller fit than Scabs and Cleans.

I had to size down in Soaps because my first pair ended up having a touch of negative space around the toes.

My Mr Wilson's in the same size fit perfectly.

Soaps are just annoying for me though, because it turns out I am centrally between sizes in them. I bought a site stretcher though. So I'm always gonna get Soaps a touch too small and stretch them. They well have custom fit then!


In short, if your Soap 11s fit snugly your Wilson's might be a rich tight. Never fear though, they can be stretched.
