My last lakai shoe, and first in ....10 ish years was the proto. I liked the shoe. Little narrow. Skated well, materials were decent. It’s $75 ish dollar shoe, but lakai was trying to get that $100 Nike money. Can’t see it.
I feel like I wear a 10 in dunks, Jordan’s, 9.5 af1s, 10.5 in lakai and dc cupsoles. Not sure if that helps. If you have been 7.5 in lakai vulcs, which used to bag out quick for me (bagged out fresh outta the box.....’out of the box’ is a fucking annoying, stupid, OFT repeated phrase. Fuck) than I’d go .5 size up in cup soles. Ish.
Interested to hear others thoughts on this
