Do skateboarding shoes offer enough grip for parkour/ freerunning?

Skateboarding shoes are pretty good for parkour. The grip, designed for the concrete-like griptape surface of a skateboard, is just as good for actual concrete, and the material does pretty well on rails too. The only problem is that some companies like to put too much padding on the sides and become a bit stiff; But if you get something like the emerica suske's (something like that), you only need to worry about durability, which also becomes a problem with these kinds of shoes. If you're worried about padding, skateboard shoes have more than enough padding without insoles. You actually want less padding for parkour, 'cause the more you have the less interaction with your environment you have; it takes away from the entire experience, the stiffness becomes a bit uncomfortable, and it doesn't allow you to feel your way through stuff like precisions and balancing. If you think you have too little padding for landings, you're probably taking drops from heights you shouldn't be taking, you're not taking the impact correctly (it's all on the balls of your feet), or a combination of both. Basically, what you have right now, if you feel comfortable in them, should last you a couple of months until you start getting rips and holes in the sole. When that happens, just look for shoes with the guidelines stated in the answer before me. They don't really have to be parkour specific, and they don't have to have any extra amount of padding. You just want for the sole to be as unpatterned as possible (to have a larger surface area to grip with), to be made of one piece (so it doesn't fall apart too soon), to have good flex, and to have at least decent sensitivity. If your movement feels impaired by the shoe, it's no good.
