DC seems to be regressing from where they were a few years ago with the legacy 98 and OG lynx heat. Would definitely cop some of those lakais. Cambridge mid looks nice.

[close]

DC pumps out a lot of their "6.0" line. They still do reissues like the ones you mentioned, but they're limited. Always been that way. Not sure if the 98s are making a comeback, but there are other OG models in the works, and new lynx OGs have been dropping pretty regularly, including two very handsome colorways up next.

Regarding DC 6.0, has anyone messed with the Lynx Zero or the new Manteca?

I’m tempted but honestly a little hesitant because of how inexpensive they are.

I’m well aware this is kind of a fucked up way to be thinking about things, but a Manteca that’s cheaper than it was 20 years ago BEFORE accounting for inflation does make me wonder if it’s a complete piece of shit.

I haven’t had a pair, but I’ve liked other dc cupsoles. They do have some very reasonable prices on some of their shoes. Maybe check them out in person to see if the toe will work with your flick and judge on that

I guess they listened to you guys because it looks like all of the Telford lows going forward have the Atlantic sole.

Damn! If only they would have went ahead and done this on the Welsh ones. The sole is wack!

The lynx zeros skate well if you're into a cupsole with moderate puff and good board feel. Almost no break-in period... Almost no durability.

I skated a pair of manteca's and they felt really good honestly. The fit is really nice on those. the outsole feels kinda reminiscent of the outsole on the Reynolds G6/Spanky G6 imo. It takes a little breaking in but after that, it feels solid.

It hurts my soul that we get more Jamal Smith clothing items than footage these days. I could just watch him do bigspins for 2 minutes straight and be happy.

Awesome that he got a shoe though! He deserves it.

Didn’t he have a video reviewing like 90s adidas a few years back? I think knowing he actually fucks with the history and stuff of makes him getting a colorway even better . I might have to send my grandma into home grown to cop a pair for me.

 I used to spend summers up in Ithaca and watching him shred that park in person before he came up on YouTube was such a treat. One time he just called out like “I’m gonna manny the entire park as slow as possible” and did it and it was fucking hilarious. He had that tornado spin on the corner quarter pipe down to a science.

I can get down with these, that said , isn’t a campus without stripes in white just a stan smith? Side note been skating a pair of regular campuses a friend gave me and they’re sick but does anyone got a rec on finding more for cheap. It’s wild they want $80 for non skate ones now.

He also reposted an all-black colorway on his story that I've never seen before. It didn't have the white contrast stitching that the first black colorway had.

Anyone else with larger feet feel like the Crockett highs are just really huge on foot? I want to like them but they are just too massive for me at size 12

[Vintagebody]

I dont have a massive foot, but they feel rather tall in their height in the toebox... Too bad, bcuz they look sick, and do kinda skate well

[Argyle]

I'm only a UK8 (US9) and the crocketts felt like a boot to me. Couldn't get on with them unfortunately. Loved the lows when I had some though

[apport]

boys of summer carrolls, they botched the hell out of these things. the boys of summer text on the sole can be scraped off but atiba & ako signature on the tongue is too much, couldn’t do it

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

Way to ruin a fucking legendary model…

[pdknox]

would have been sick to put a pic of him and Kobe on the tongue

Clear sole is a weird choice

Why does vans think people want text on their soles?   Is it just because they can?

Just give us one normal non collab model of this damn shoe

[apport]

i'm starting to think vans requires them to fuck up the shoes when they do reissues. i remember the supreme carrolls looked good but then they had that 3m reflective tongue for some reason. the boys of summer ones are just unsalvageable though.

it's possible we'll see normal non-collab carroll in the future, seems like a lot of work to go through redoing that shoe for the skate line just for one collab reissue.

[FROTHY]

I think the demographic that likes "boys of summer" doesn't want anything to do with a shoe with "boys of summer" written all over it.

Same can probably be said about the demographic that recognizes what shoe this is.

The supreme one (especially the wheat) looks A LOT better than I remember.   Almost exactly what I’d want, but Vans doesn’t seem to love to do Wheat colorways as much as I like to buy them

I think the exact opposite. I get the vibe that a lot of those people will elan into how ugly and stupid it looks as a "bit."

[doublesteveburger]

text on soles has never looked good i don't know why these companies keep botching it

I blame Jeff Kutter.

Are you reading this, Jeff? What the fuck, man?

(For the record, I have had absolutely no contact with Jeff Kutter whatsoever.)

[theloniousmonk]

I’ll maybe grab those vans but they how out of touch Aruba is because a white with black sole/tongue would do numbers
