Post UPCOMING/RECENT shoe releases thread

[Watson]

Our shop got the Alexis shoe and I think it's really good. Shape and sole thickness is super similar to the Weapon. Good shape. I don't like that white/green colourway but the other colours are good. Personally I'm not into those rubber bumper ollie guard things but it's still a good shoe.

i must say, the more i see it, the less weird the panels and bumps look to me. and the black colorway actually rules, especially from above. most importantly, they look very comfy to me. and now i kind of want them. it's like meeting someone at a party and not getting along initially, but then you end up vibing out hard.

you heard something when the black colorway might drop?

Don't know if the link will work but Korean skater @dga1zu posted some Alexis cons release thing but the shoes all have different Ollie bumps.

@Watson would you say that they fit TTS or is it the classic go half a size down Cons type of thing?

@Watson would you say that they fit TTS or is it the classic go half a size down Cons type of thing?

I'm an 8.5 and the smallest we got is a 9 but judging by how the 9 fits I would say TTS for sure.

you heard something when the black colorway might drop?

Not sure when the black one is coming but all three of those colours are the same season, just different drops. The white/green is the launch colour, I would guess the black and the other white one would be a month or so away if that.

Anyone else see this?

As a rule of thumb for Converse: their cupsoles are usually TTS, while most of their vulcs are 0.5 small.

TTS: Fastbreak, Pro Leather (when it was out), AS-1 (based on what we've seen), Weapon, etc.

The fastbreak is not true to size go atleast 0.5 down

lakai q4 2023 calendar is up. mostly the usual 50/50 combo of shoes that will make you somewhat less likely to get mugged or absolutely garish horseshit but this one appeals to me as a mid/cup appreciator

So it’s a “designed by, but not pro model for” Cody Chapman like the Trudger was for Simon?

Does that mean it's gonna be around for like one or two seasons like the Trudger was? What a weird difference...

It really is the best looking shoe in the catalog

Seems like a dunk for the people who complain they don’t want a giant logo on the side of their shoe.

That cream suede Gass shoe is sick.  Are they done with the Atlantic?

Did they take this sole off the Telford's just so they could have this shoe a couple months later. Actually think they look pretty nice but lakais sizing has never worked for me

That shoe is dope, and I like the sole.
But I don’t fuck with mid tops : (

[Big Baby Jesus]

Lakai actually has a pretty strong line up right now. Haven’t skated a pair in a long time but sounds like they worked out some of the QC issues they’ve been having. Any one skate a pair recently? I’ve only been on fastbreaks for 3 years.
