OG DC Lynx's and Sal 23's! but seriously, since those don't exist the best stuff I've skated recently were SB Dunk mids and Carroll Selects. I need mid's due to my shoddy ankles. I would go back to low tops if they re-re-released the Lynx's and 23's. No experience on these shoes and haven't rocked low tops in forever, but I've heard great things about the Busenitz, Manchesters, and Janowski's. I am willing to risk my shoddy ankles to try those jawns, and the Nike FP's look good and curious on the new Kostons too.
