Jesus Christ those are fucking hideous. same with the kalis vulc. when will they learn that nobody wants vulc versions of classic capsules? the panelling and overall designs were originally designed with being a cupsole in mind, so what makes them think just slapping them on a vulc sole would look good???
Kalis Vulc are actually one of the better looking vulcs currently out. Given how bland current vulc models are outside of Blazers and Vans. I see so many people skating them, personally.
as far as "tech" vulcs go, i think the best aesthetically were the es square ones or reynolds 3s. never skated either because i'm too young. compared to those, kalis vulcs look ugly as fuck. i feel like a super tech upper designed for a super tech cupsole, like the kalis', look so goofy on a vulc sole. there's a reason why bland vulcs are so popular, it's because they look clean as fuck and look good with most outfits
well the square ones were hot garbage and part of es's downfall. The shoe literally fell apart, not even from skating. The sole just fell off. You didn't miss much.
The Kalis vulc is not a good-looking shoe, but I saw so many people skating them in the wild. Specifically, if I left the city and went to a park not far from a mall.
We disagree greatly here, but Square Ones were the BEST vulc Es offered next to the Theory/Theory 1.5.
The sole falling apart is for sure a one-off, just like the Vans that people complained about. They skated so well. Moderate puff on a flexible vulc sole that lasted a decent amount of time.
Kalis Vulc does looks good, though. Why else is it selling pretty well? It's somewhat tech looking upper is actually not ugly on a simple vulc sole, unlike that Globe CT-IV vulc thing that came out. It's not a bland vulc for a change and it works.
Simple upper vulcs work but semi tech upper vulcs work too.
Kalis Vulc, Square One, Etnies RVM, Theory 1/1.5, Half Cab, etc. are all good looking vulc shoes with not so simple uppers.
Reynolds 3 & Square Ones were super popular because they skated well and looked good!
