Title: lakai manchesters?
Post by: Bklynbank on February 12, 2006, 04:25:44 PM
how are they in leather versus swede? do they fit snug or loose?
Title: Re: lakai manchesters?
Post by: eight oh eight on February 12, 2006, 06:22:59 PM
preferably suede, and snug so half a size up would do it.

It seems like alot of people like this shoe.  I have two pairs of suede ones and love them.  I hope they release some new colorways soon.

Wouldn't they stretch out after wearing and eventually fit perfect?

Yeah I'm trying to get a pair of the Blue suedes ones with the orange stripe. Everyone I know who's had  pair of these shoes love em. Oh and ask Issac if he like this shoe!

Ive had three pairs of them in a row. Two suede, and my new ones are brown and made of 'nubuck', I guess its called. My feet are kinda wide but the stretch out after a few days, like most shoes.

I've rocked three straight pairs and will be devestated when they discontinue the model, though I said that about the Staple and then I found the Manchesters. They are my favorite shoe ever. And to answer your question, suede.

Yeah they felt really small at first but strech after a while, now they fit just right. Even though they don´t necessarily look like it, they´re really good for skating.  The ones I´m rocking are suede.

They are really narrow. If you wear anything bigger than a 11 I would stay away from them.

These shoes look really bad in the durability department.  Do they rip to crap quickly?
Title: Re: lakai manchesters?
Post by: gimmesometrack on March 02, 2006, 10:20:14 PM
they dont have any seams really, so its just wearing through suede. my shoes usually explode on the seams so i think thats its advantage. but yeah, no toe cap or anything, but thats what i like. simple.
Title: Re: lakai manchesters?
Post by: skeet skeet skeet on March 03, 2006, 01:08:22 PM
Awesome, I just got a pair from SkateWarehouse for $20.  I got a 1/2 size up because I have a wide foot.

which one are better: mj3s or manchesters??
Title: Re: lakai manchesters?
Post by: Raw!!! on March 05, 2006, 09:01:30 PM
Ive wanted a pair of Manchesters for a while, but I dont think my shop ever gets them in and I have big feet so they'd look bad.

Sorry to revive an old topic, but does anyone know if the neaux dominion manchesters are out yet?

lakais suck.prob not even suede."simple" is another way of saying they cost nothing to produce.still at least you cunts arent wanking on about nikes.go by the pops model you shoe fags.

Post by: G Dubbs on June 22, 2006, 10:29:47 AM
I just looked at the Lakai Holiday '06 catalog yesterday and I didn't see the manchesters at all.  So I guess you better get them while you can.  Overall I wasn't too hyped on most of the shoes, except the second Mariano Fourstar collab.  The "Old School" t-shirt is going to sell like crazy too.
Title: Re: lakai manchesters?

You think they'll sell them online?  I don't know if any shops around here will get them.
Title: Re: lakai manchesters?
Post by: magnet on June 22, 2006, 03:40:12 PM
Hopefully they're just skipping the season which they did with the Telfords during the Spring season which I don't get since they never seem to take a break from those other models which look like crap to skate in.

Why though?  They seem to be a team favorite.  Almost everytime you see an ad from of their guys, theyre rocking them.  And they seem to be a favorite from everyone on here.

They were the thinnest ,slimmest shoe lakai made before the select stuff. Now all the dudes are skating those howards and mj's. im pretty sure they arent completely axeing the manchesters.
Title: Re: lakai manchesters?
Post by: SLANGIN_ROCKS on July 11, 2006, 10:55:16 PM
