I forgot about this one. Lizzie had been wearing it in some instagram stories right? They look a lot more skateable than her highs to me.

Looks like a less tech zahba to me

I like these more than the originals

was gonna say the same thing, i've never actually tried the hi's on though... are they really that bad for skating?


god i miss the paradoxxx

I had the highs, rubber felt horrible for kickflips

On the flip side, I liked these for kickflips. It felt really good for me. I'd say it's my favorite vulc shoe.

If you skate transition/vert and kneeslide a lot with pads, these shoes are designed with that in mind as there's rubber under the suede toe box which makes it really durable for that

Sizing is weird, TTS is super snug and narrow but as the shoe breaks in it stretches out and eventually feels better. But I know some people go up half a size to avoid this.

They look just like the indoors to me. I heard nothing but crap about those.

Just Puig indoors.

I had a pair. They were okay. The cupsole model is still the best

[GoldenGateHeights]

Lizzie lows look great but man, I wish they would come out with more Rowleys color ways (or at least have them consistently in stock)

I just got the lows in my TTS and can say that after about ten minutes of skating them they felt absolutely amazing. They definitely have an improved fit over the highs, (which squeezed the hell outta my feet) mainly due to the eyelet panel not being stitched down like on the highs. My kickflips also felt totally fine.
Was skating the Figgy G6's prior to these and I'm already liking the Lizzie Low's way more.

Damn given how I’ve only skated vans and emericas the last year that’s an interesting take. I would’ve thought the figgy would feel better but different strokes for different folks .

This is getting to be a little absurd. Trying to shout out Pharrell, Bella Hadid, and Cara Delevingne for a DC shoe with an almost carbon copy of virgil's sneaker doodling? Wack.

And Daniel Wheatley’s gf.   I can’t imagine any of those women give a shit about a DC shoe

[JugeL]

Man get Jaakko the fuck out of there

[JoeyLebs]

Not the best pics but a look at what Braden was wearing at the XGames. Looks like it’s inspired by the Quentin but with a slimmed down upper & different sole. Kinda gives me janoski vibes, which I’m cool with. https://ibb.co/Tt84pk7 https://ibb.co/JHpMfHf

Glad there's someone else as nerdy as me lol. Saw these and was wondering if they were some kind of customs the sole looks like some kind of cup/vulc hybrid which I think Dakota's pro shoe was meant to have originally

There's a vulc version of the Atlantic in the new catalogue.

He and Virgil were doing all of that for his LV shoe

I like Lucien, but it must be frustrating after having a shoe on Louis Vuitton and now riding for DC Shoes...

The shoe looks good but I can't stand that Paramount outsole. Every Lakai shoe with that sole is too pointy for me with zero heel lock and strong ankle rolling probabilities. The Griffin sole, and every shoe that has had it, fit my feet perfectly and skated great. Although lack of durability is it's biggest issue.

Ive skated this shoe and it’s great, the thing that kills this shoe is the horrible colorways that get released. If they can fix that and just release some basic and normal colorways, this would be a good sell in my opinion

I think I remember that Kalis posted on IG that before he got the LV shoe, Kalis was pulling for Lucien to join DC and talks were slow but moving along. And then when he got the LV offer, DC told him to take that and they'd check back in when the LV contract was up. So I don't know how bummed he actually he is to be honest.

You've skated the Atlantic, the cupsole version ? If so, over 95% of their colorways have been normal or pleasing colorways. I've yet to see a horrible (I'm sure it exists) colorway of the Atlantic.

Now, if you're talking about the Griffin, there's definitely some questionable colorways out there

[Paco Supreme]

Not to mention Braille and all of the shit that goes along with it, but I was just in a pharmacy and the guy there was wearing a pristine looking pair of the black on black model.

I had to look twice because that got awful B logo was very noticeable

I think I had a pair of Flaco 2s that had the Paramount sole and it was the flimsiest shoes I've had since some regular Vans Eras.

Looks boring, uninspired and pretty Emerica generic so I'm not surprised. Not my cup of tea for sure but probably there are people who likes it.

Couple more shots of the Shanahan

Are these out? Did any PALS got a pair? I checked distributors in my area (Europe), and nothing. Nothing on DC site. Kinda strange to drop a heavy video part, but the shoes are nowhere to be found.

There's a shop here in Prague that sells them if you're interested

You’re kidding me right? The Atlantic has some of the worst colorways I’ve ever seen in Skateboarding

Not in the EU but I was able to get my hands on these pretty easily in the US; the shop list was pretty expansive. They fit well, interior is quite plush and spacious. I have a pair of the Bronze Clocker 2’s and was skeptical about how these would fit since they use the same sole & my feet were way too wide for the Clocker’s toebox, but these fit me far better. Length is pretty TTS as well.
On a side note, I can’t believe DC is charging the same price for the Lucien Lynx’s as they are the Shanahan 1.

Important distinction: "some" and that same statement can be applied to almost every shoe brand and model ever. 

Majority of their colorways on that shoe have been simple, common colors you'd enjoy from [insert brand and model you like]. You say they don't release basic colorways when they've had black/white, all black, navy/white, red/white, Black/white/gum, all gray, black/gum, brown/gum. Just do a quick Google search and you'll see a majority of colorways are not whack. Maybe you've been unlucky and only seen the occasional weird colorways that didn't sell out in stores or online when you did to go to buy them
