Straight fire.
i saw that the middle one comes out in March. Thats the color the Sabotage guys have been skating in Philadelphia.
Navy/Orange is in June and the black is September.
I grab this from @goldeneracollector .
Thank god for that guy beating up DC to bring some great shoes back.
lets hope they do the same thing with the Stevie 1 and some other Kalis shoes.

Wenning back on makes a ton of sense now.

I wouldn't mind getting a retro of the Kalis or the Truth model.

I loved the lynx so much back in the day but now they look dangerously close to dad shoes to me.

Is this how you know you're getting at that age?

I agree with you (unless Tiago and Iqui starts skating exclusively those).
I'd buy a waterproof all black DC Lynx for the winter

I had the OG lynx back in the day and I guess they were alright. Can’t remember much about them actually. But right now that sole looks mad thick. Almost like platform shoes. I couldn’t rock those now at all.

They're a niche thing and they gonna be a limited edition from what I heard so I dont believe they will end up collecting dust anywhere. People have mad nostalgia for them.

I like those Lynx but I don't know if DC can climb out of the gutter it dug itself into with all those mall shoes.

Years ago I overheard a story a skatepark kid was telling - some Rasta guy came up to him and asked where he could get a pair of DCs. The kid told him "Honestly man, DC is gay," and the Rasta guy flipped out and said "What!?"

Obviously not indicative of everyone in skating, and the kid shouldn't have used a homophobic slur, it's just that word gets around and brands lose their lustre to the point where they can't recover.

I would maybe get a pair to skate in but would be kind of embarrassed to wear them anywhere else? DC is really associated with like motocross bros and dudes with tribal tats still. They can sponsor T funk and Evan as long as they want but they can’t undo the early 2000s

Search the hashtag #skateshoewars on Instagram.  There’s like a whole subculture of dudes buying, selling, and collecting puffy DC, Adio, globe, and sole tech stuff from 12-20 years ago.  They’re probably the dudes that campaigned for DC to do this.

Shouldn’t it be “Cory Kennedy off Nike”?  Pretty sure there’s a way to edit titles of threads.

this is why anyone who thinks these will be in the sale bins are whack... like fuck theres some insane collectors out there with hard ons sooooooooo big right now, @goldeneracollector himself will probably buy 6, most other core core collectors will get two pairs. Got some legacy OG's guess what... i got two fackin pairs bud

If you search the hashtag #tableforone you actually get the same group of dudes.

I hate those dudes. Even though I've made really good money selling old shoes to them. Seriously so many people who collect nasty ass Circas, Osiris, and the worst DCs. Using that bullshit hastag #makeskateshoespuffyagain. It's pretty obvious with so many of them that they were fucking kooks when they skated in the early 00s and they're still fucking kooks.

Like, look at all your favourite pros who skated those shoes back in the day. NONE of them skate shoes like that anymore. The reason isn't an industry conspiracy to sell slim shoes, it's because those shoes fucking suck to skate in.

Are these the same people who masturbate into skate shoes? If so, the puffy tongue thing kind-of makes sense, in a fleshlightey kind of way.
