Because whether you like it or not people are not fucking with Lakai like they used to, they lost their vibe and hype.

I already bought 2 pairs. The tounge strap turned out to be a non-issue. Lux-lite insole is legit.

Because Nike Marketing.


For real tho, I got the Chocolate versions because they looked kind of like the OG Cons Pops pro. I really like them. Swapped the insoles with my old Wes Kramer pros and they feel perfect for a vulc. Laced all the way up, tongue straps are redundant. I wish the area around the forefoot where the tongue bonds to the toe was done a little differently. They're already creased up and kind of shitty looking. I'm also used to "open" toe areas because of my fucked up feet and gait (think Janoski, Dunks, Figgys). I assume they will hold up very nicely once I skate them. The suede is some of the best I've seen on any non-NB skate shoe in a while. Also the Perez would have been a better name and fit in with the Lakai scheme much better. Why the fuck they pulled a Project BA with the naming is beyond me. The dude was in one of the biggest videos of the year and they didn't put his actual name on the thing.

Is this really a question? I hope you are not on the Lakai marketing team!

I'm saying people should buy stuff based on whether they like it, not on vibe and hype. Unless you're a confused teenager who can't think for himself.

I understood 78.57% of this sentence. Thanks, Duolingo!

The Fremont, Fura, and Vincent 2 seem like the nicest models. Surprising to see the MJs still for sale on the site, but it makes sense.

Really don't like the name of those shoes after a second thought, they're 4th on my shoe choices and I've been a big lakai fan since the beginning. .I'm a vibe skater and unfortunately lakais vibe is 3rd now, doesn't mean they're not still great. I'll be skating some laced and states first but these would be perfect for a trip
