Yuck. >:(
oh hell naw!
-
the white ones look amazing!
-
sweeet! they will probably be out of my budget :(
-
They look... ok. Better than the Silas or Immotile, not as good as the rest of the current line. Kinda agree with the comment about the iffy toecap.
-
the white ones look amazing!
Feeling these. Also Silas said in an interview a little while ago he has a new shoe coming out thats less hiking bootish, looking forward to those.
-
How bummed is Tim Oconnor that he got nothing but colorways for years and Lucas gets on and has a shoe within a year.
-
^give credit where credit is due.
On another note, fuck yeah for cupsole!

July 2012 needs to come quicker

Why would Tim be bummed? It's not like he's out there killing it.
-
those look amazing!! i'm such a fan of his second shoe on lakai and i'm glad he didn't deviate too much from it. these look like an awesomer ronan.
-
looks like a campus vulc combined with a ciero
looks sick, i dig the weird looking toe cap

I meant more like he'd been there so long and never got offered a shoe.
Obviously Lucas puts himself out there and is rewarded for it. I wasn't taking into consideration merit, only tenure.
-
I guess I'm the only one who thinks these are pretty whatever.
-
the only gripe i have is that they don't appear to have the recessed laces like the buzenitz and ronan's do... i love that addition. other than that they look great, i'm eager to see better pics of the white ones.

I see what you're saying but I still think Tim should consider himself lucky to be even getting a paycheck from Adidas. Adidas is doing waaaaay more for him than he is for them.

Agreed
Good for Puig though!

Agreed, but he does (did) have some value to his name and I always enjoy his skating when he does it. That does count for something still these days (to me anyways).
-

I'll wait for a blue pair

The heel looks a bit high but maybe thats just me. Toe cap is sick though

England reporting, unfortunately no. Over.

I'd be hyped on the shoe if it was a different toe cap. A one piece toe cap would be dope.

I agree, another cupsole adidas for 80$? Who cares.

Which sucks because I really want to support Lucas. But I didn't like his first shoe nor any of the colorways for his second one.

Ha- never heard "jawn" before?
There's even a skate rag called "Skate Jawn"
http://www.skatejawn.com/ (http://www.skatejawn.com/)
Check it out - the cover for the most recent one is this guy I know in Bed Stuy Brooklyn with a mini ramp he built in his backyard.
Really awesome stuff if you know the area - it's kinda surreal with the area being so rundown and barbed wire being right next to the ramp's fence.
Also - nice post with the Birthday Party - already booked the gyrating spider man and venom for my 27th Birthday.

I see some similarity to these I think

Fuck yeah for cupsole!
Took the words right out of my mouth.

Is there any word on a pete eldridge pro model?

I don't see that happening, ever. He's rad but not exactly the hottest commodity on the pro shoe market.
About these Lucas' shoes, I like them. If they fit good, might get a pair.
-
I spoke to the Adidas rep and these are retail for $80, all pro models will be 80 dollars.
No Pete Shoe but he's one of my favorites of all time.
Busenitz is currently working on his 2nd shoe, I'm scared for him because I have no idea how he's going to top his first model. (not that he has too)
Slias' new shoe is a one piece toe cap cupsole/vulc fused model with characteristics of "hiking" styles but by no means is as close as his first model. It's a basic model that should keep everyone happy & almost make people forget about his first shoe.
Gonz now has his own line and it's going to be offered to core/mainline shops. It includes 2 Gonz colorway pro models in the mainline but is available for all core shops. He even has his own line of sweat suits with matching Gonz emblems all over it and a womans line covered in Gonz artwork.
Getcha money mang...
Oh and I back the fuck out of Lucas' shoe. I'd pay for these beauties any day. When I had them in hand, they're flexible with a standard insole. I heard that the whole Adidas team has been skating this shoe and it's a favorite amongst all the riders. Some adjustments might be made but nothing too crazy.
-
I'm backing Lucas's shoe. It's refreshing to see brands stepping out of the black/white vulc box that has ruled the market for the last few years. The toe cap is interesting, I kinda like it. And its rad to see cupsoles making a comeback. The price seems a lil high, but I think prices on shoes are going to be a little higher in the near future. I mean people are buying the fuck out of Janoskis for nearly 80 bucks, and let's be honest, there is nothing to that shoe. It offers no protection, but its aesthetically pleasing, and that seems to be all that matters to people nowadays when buying shoes. I think functionality is going to play a bigger role when skaters are making their shoe choices.
-
i really dig Adidas cupsoles ive had two pairs of busenitz and they were one of the best shoes ive skated lasted a long time and felt really good, an i like the toe cap on these reminds me of old school tennis shoe

holy shit those Silas 2's look perfect... i actually love his first shoe, they are the most comfortable i've had in a long long time.
but those look a million times better... released any time soon?

I love them. Really good shape, really nice little details on the shoe, at first glance they look really basic but there's some nice little design features on them. Nice shape toe and a little padding around the ankle but not too much. These are samples, but pretty sure production will end up pretty close

Have to agree, plus the odd colourways mean that they'll be on sale in a couple of months
the more I see the Puig toecap the more I'm remined of the old vans Agah (albeit not rubber)

I had those Agahs in that same color scheme.
Loved those bad boys long time.

They are so fucking light.
-
damn all of this hype has got me really anticipating the lucas shoe. will definitely not buy it online as it seems like a shoe that might not look as rad in person, but if i see it somewhere and there's nothing about that makes my skate ocd kick in, i'll pick a pair up for sure.
-
I really recommend people try them on first anyways. They're so thin I had to go down a half size. They're not that tight but they'll form to your foot and fit like a glove.
-
Good for him. Shoe looks tight. Will probably skate them if I see them in shops in my area.

Adidas is trying hard to break my Nike streak and with these, I think it worked.

My local shop just got the Lucas shoe and the Silas 2s in and they are both pretty amazing. I ended up buying the Lucas shoe and it skates so well right out of the box. It feels like its been broken in and fits very true to size, had to get a half size down. The materials they use on the lucas shoe are so much better than on any of the other adidas models and justify the $80 price tag. They also utilize some adidas soccer shoe technology, a synthetic material on the inner-side panels of the shoe called Sprint Skin, which im guessing contributes to the shoes light weight and provides great rigidity. Sprint Skin Defined: "Adidas Sprint Skin technology is a single layer synthetic that provides reduced weight and excellent ball control. Sprint Skin is a synthetic material that is lighter, thinner and softer than usual synthetics, making this football boot supreme for speed, comfort and feel. Increased ball control and lightweight features make Sprint Skin ideal for the serious player."

The Silas 2s feel great. The amounting of padding used can be compared to the Koston 1 nike and the toe box has a nice round shape on the pointier side, would definitely get a pair. The sole reminds me of the janoski sole, which I enjoyed a lot.
-
confused as fugg. fits very true to size, yet you got a half size down? and how does the toe look from above? it kinda looks all square and not good at all.

They fit kind of big: I wear 9,5 in Busenitz, 9 in these. The toe looks kind of big from above but not square at all.

the 9.5s i have fit pretty true. the toe is not pointy in any way, very round.

Anybody else notice the problem of pebbles getting stuck in a real bad way in the threads of the soles? I feel like it's particularly bad in this shoe, to the point where I have to dig the pebbles out every single time I step on the board unless I want scratches on my griptape. Even walking 10 steps on sand for is enough for pebbles to get in the threads and they're not coming out easily. You have to use a key or whatever you happen to have handy.
It's like you'd have to carry your skateshoes to the spot and make sure not ever to step on anything but concrete.
Sorry about the rant but I'm going skating and I once again have to start the session with that bullshit, I just had to share this.

Yeah, I'd say its safe to get a half size down for the Lucas.

How does the seem where the toe cap and midsole meet hold up? Looks as though it that would come apart pretty fast.

i've been skating mine for 3 or 4 weeks now and the stitching by your pinkie toe eventually starts to go at the corner of the toecap but there's a bit of suede under there and i basically glued the edge back down w/a bit of shoe goo. if you don't do that it will eventually blow out. otherwise the shoe is incredibly durable (apart from the fact that i'm on my 4th set of laces).

Thanks for the feedback.

Just tried them on.. I can't totally notice fluctuation in size. But we'll see what I skate them. they're rather pretty!

I'm a 9.5 in Vans and a 10 in Busenitz. I got the Puig's in 10 and they are fine. Perfect for my narrow feet as well :)
