Anyone know what the cushioning/insole/midsole setup is like on the Shanahans? I have my eye on the tan/gum ones, but no shop near me carries DC, so I haven't even looked at them in person.

I have em... buy them... that tan/gum cw is one of the best.. heavy dcxsupreme from bitd vibes...

Isn’t the JS1 on the same sole as the clocker 2? Personally those things are too thick and stiff for me.

It is but they made it much more flexible on the JS1 vs the Clocker, fits much better than the Clocker as well IMO.

Agreed. Copped the Bronze collab. Upper has some bulk but not in a bad way especially if you've skated anything like 808s or padded shoes vs a vans etc. Incredibly surprised at the board feel on them, more feel than a 480, a click less than a dunk but to me with a few sessions feel amazing. Look incredible too.

Giving money to Sal
while being obnoxious at the same time

[propaganda]

ok just seen the email had to make sure someone on here was talking about this. guess golf truly is the hobby that “just like skating”

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

I’m all for giving money to Sal but those things are atrocious 🤮

that second picture look like he got a right shoe on his left foot

[144p]

Every clip or pic i see of Sal he is wearing vans or nike.
Probably not inspiring anyone to cosplay with the reissue doing that.
And these golf shoes ain't it either.
Way to go Nidecker.

[roba]

it's like they have to do 10 goofy ass releases to get 1 right every once in a while

[DeanMaple]

Why the fuck The Nuge is promoting this?

Not to mention a price tag of $160...

Straight-up garbage, Etnies is beyond lost...

[Atiba Applebum]

I guess what else would you do in a collab with Malbon and the age of skaters who golf probably coincides with people who care about Sal 23s

Every shoe gets a t-toe these days. I wonder how long the trend will last.
For the record Sambas are still great even if everyone and their mom is wearing them.

Andy Roy heard the name of this shoe and the Snuggle Bandit reared its head for the first time in years.   Like Matt Murdock who can never stop being Daredevil

I would think the tariffs have them rethinking some things, with almost all skate shoes being manufactured overseas. Everything immediately became more expensive to make, so the brands will probably be slower to introduce new products, cut down on how much stuff they make overall, and be less likely to put things out that are risky from a sales perspective (bold colourways, trend-bucking new models, etc.). It might also be harder or more expensive to buy the materials that go into the shoes now, so we may see them changing how they make the shoes - lower quality materials, cheaper production methods, discontinuing products that are expensive to make, etc.

Thanks. Those are cool. Might get a pair for chillers.
