So so glad that DC has decided to recommit to making the kind of shoes that made people love their company in the first place. There’s more than enough cheap, bland, all black vulcanized shoes out there on the market already.
These are more like Shanahan's version of Kalis' Kalynx. Which, as the name implies, it's a hybrid. An experiment. The sole of the clocker with whatever it has for upper. Same deal he had with his take on the Metric, which only difference being that they have the sole of the Legacy. I'm personally not down with those. A slim upper with a chunky sole is just not it. I would like to see more reissues, prototypes or actually well done experiments like Sabotage's Lynxes or Jean Michel Basquiat's Lynxes, which are also a hybrid. A Lynx with the sole of the Legacy.
@@dylives7667 That's not a slim upper, it's padded and fits the sole. We don't know how they skate yet so how could we say they are not a good hyprid compared to others. Give the man his flowers, it's his first shoe and it's a good approach in the right direction. The more of these soles are made the more likely it is we get more real retros because the tooling is the most important part. At least to me these look better than the original Clockers. Especially the colorways, the latest Clockers were a bit too wild.
Been skating a sample pair of these for over a month and they still going, 10/10 for a bigger cup sole shoe, not as big as a Lynx OG. Strap is removable, shoe holds your foot in place perfect.
I know they had to make vulcanised whatever for ages cos that's where the market went, but I'm so glad they've gone back to their roots. Like, that's a pair of DCs, it can't be anything else; you can tell from a mile away - when something's that instantly recognisable, a brand should be doubling down on it whenever they get the chance. DCs finally back to looking like DCs, love it.
The skate shoe industry truly fell off when they tried to be like Vans. eS and Circa eventually went out of business because of it. But by sheer miracle, eS came back to stay. Can't say the same about Circa, though. However, they're also coming back.
@ReneGarcia-fv5kj I'm on my 4th pair nowww.... their a dream. id really like if u bought the 1s I'm gonna customize thru my co....(imagine if u will) the tan 0nes w all gum sole.... dyed flat blk ...on top of the fully gum sole, w touches of tan left to mix w the new black on gum sole. crazy boutique style beyond exclusive. dope shoe
That Ultra Puffy Tongue reminds me of the days of when I rocked DVS's w/ the new StashPouch built-into the underside of the Tongue...these look great. Loving what DC has been doing lately with the classic/legacy style shoes...
@@hou5eheadjason yeah thats why i loved the fatter shoes because it had more ankle support! but i do agree! shoes that could prevent more ankle sprains i would love that!
Haven't had a strap on a skate shoe since my Fred Gall Ipaths... But I want a pair of these just to stunt. gona keep skating my Stevies til they explode but damn... very DC but also reminiscent of the LAKAI Rickk Howards from the mid oughts with that toe cap and the orange touches. Damn I gota step away from the keyboard and take a cold shower or something I'm starting to drool.
Like eS, DC has a DEEP archive that they can dive into to make a ton of people happy. The one downside is that there were a ton of great pro models and models designed by pro's that could block the amount of great reissues. Kinda like eS and the 197, 298 and Evant; we know what they're modeled after but all of us would love the true OG reissue.
Honestly I'm so happy e's brought back the Penny 2. I remember when my local shop had them as a kid but could never afford them and there was no way my parents were dropping that kind of money. Now I got adult money 😎
Way out of context but I always watch you guys but never really understood where you came from in skateboarding. I had bought pretty sweet when it first came out but haven't watched it in years. Saw both of y'all's parts and I was amazed/embarrassed. Not a huge fan of those shoes but definitely a huge fan of what y'all are doing 👍👍😎
After Kelly said the clockers,now all I see is clockers with a strap definitely old Rick Howard’s too.clockers we’re my favorite especially the black with gum some ❤
Back in the day I would take a Bmx tube and cut a square out of it and put some holes in it and lace it on too the spot where Ollie’s rip your shoe up. Pretty genius I know 😂
i am with chris on the strap situation. should have stamped “Shanahan” on the strap. no color, just stamping. would have made it a liittle more interesting to look at from the front but kept it clean.
Dude remember kastel.....or hook ups targets.....we are letting these companies dictate where ALL industries are going right now....look at all of entertainment
@@stalwartzero7001Their puffy OG style shoes are all way way higher build quality and materials than the cheap vulcanized shit they were making throughout the 2010s.
@@ogmike6444 I did notice that was a possibility. But since the guys didn't bother to show it, that's why I was asking. And thank God for that. That's exactly what Adidas' Forum was missing. Something as basic as the strap being an option, instead of mandatory. I know there are versions without the strap like the ADV and the Exhibit that come strapless but, those rarely ever get touched. And yes, it is possible to remove the strap but not only is it time consuming but also once the strap is gone, it's gone for good.
@@jessiemartinez3056 Function over fashion. Ever skated in slip ons? They slip off. They fall apart fast. Ankles get wrecked. I wear slip on house shoes. Nothing against that.
@@deadbeat-vc9kg right thats why this dc shoe shreds foo cuz its not a slip on and i have skated in slip ons in the 1970s in bowls and pools then in the 80s n 90s wit puffy shoes,,
@@jessiemartinez3056 Hey, I'm not saying don't wear whatever. I'm just saying, if you use velcro in any form, I'm going to laugh.

@@deadbeat-vc9kg what you mean lots of females love velcro shoes and give me compliments ,, when they see you wear a slip on they see a lazy bum who cant tie shoes or is sketchy like vans slips or crocs,, weird
Do you like the shoe 👍👎
Throwback, good looking shoe. Tasteful but not too much going on.
DC fans like me are in bed smoking a ciggy after that bust.
Looks so sick, perfect release
Look looks great seems puffy good cushion for protection
Yes, minus the strap. Very nostalgic for us 90's boys. I LOVED the Boxers.
its so beautiful i might cry
So so glad that DC has decided to recommit to making the kind of shoes that made people love their company in the first place. There’s more than enough cheap, bland, all black vulcanized shoes out there on the market already.
Absolutely agree. DC made great shoes for skateboarders by skateboarders that lasted a full year of hard skating

Word
make no mistake, dc still makes cheap shoes with no stitched insole. they are less than 100$.

what size you wear in these compared to lynx og? wanna make sure i cop the right size
@@baggysteve7859 same size as Lynx, perfect room in toebox and doesn't feel as cramped as clockers
@@mikeheikkila thank you 🙌 just copped the cafe clockers and agree about the cramped part lmfao

dope shoe
These bring me back to the 90s
Looks like they took some inspiration from the DC Howard pro model with the strap. Its a dope looking shoe. Congrats to Shanahan.
And the color way
The manteca with the strap was the shit when i was a kid haha
I was 16 when I worked at a skateshop... holy shit I just had flashback of that model on the wall!!! Decades ago!!!
I skate the manteca a lot it's so good for heelflips.
That Ultra Puffy Tongue reminds me of the days of when I rocked DVS's w/ the new StashPouch built-into the underside of the Tongue...these look great. Loving what DC has been doing lately with the classic/legacy style shoes...
Wish adidas would do the same with a Daewon pro model. Miss the days of the DVS tech shoes and wearing Matix almost all the time
Surprisingly, DVS still makes those.
They're The Comanches.
When i hear DC I think cup sole not vulcanized so it’s cool they are doing more big puffy shoes again.
Congratulations to John Shanahan!
i miss the fat shoe style! Best skate era ever!
what they should be about really , provides the most protection and comfort what else what you want with a skate shoe
@@hou5eheadjason yeah thats why i loved the fatter shoes because it had more ankle support! but i do agree! shoes that could prevent more ankle sprains i would love that!
dc is on top and always has been with with lynx OGs, clockers and now these
a kelly you looked a little happy and excited about them DC's remember you work for es lol
Them joints tight AF!!
I like what Kelly said that you can tell they are DCs!
Haven't had a strap on a skate shoe since my Fred Gall Ipaths...

Das our homie John!!! Congrats! Stoked for the party to come out!
i have an old pair of DC's from the early 2010's that look identical to this pro model lmao
Iove these gonna need a pair
Deff made for impact
I’ll definitely get a pair, the Clocker’s looked great in that DC x Cafe vid so that same sole on this is worth a try.
i actually like these
I wish they'd do a proper re-release of the Avatars. The Syntax too, for sure.
DC should only be allowed to make cup-sole shoes for now on

Need more of kelly and steezus reviewing shoes
Yes please
I was 12 in 1997 when I got my first job and I used my first paycheck to buy a pair of Clockers from CCS. I need to get a pair of these
I bought this shoe a few weeks ago,so dope..
Over tech is the best 🙌
It looks like the DC Legacy with parts from the avatar.
and the lynx og also
Wish they would finally re-release the boxer or do some sort of revised version.
love that sole
After Kelly said the clockers,now all I see is clockers with a strap definitely old Rick Howard’s too.clockers we’re my favorite especially the black with gum some ❤
These shoes are fire
Kelly knows it all bro love it
Fly as hell🎉
Do you remember the DC Rick Howard 2 ? This look like a Little bit. Awesome shoes. 90's and 2000's vibes
yes sir rick howards or the colin mckays
See you guys on Thursday 🎉🎉🎉
Jeron just started creasing the shoe 😂
Best way to test how much flex they got. I do the same thing when buying skate shoes they're not designer lol
Dope stuff taking the streets back!!!
These are sick but i still want the New Balance 417 Franky Vs
WHEN DO THEY DROP?
Love DC Pure/Se but ride in Vans Old School Bmx Pro shoes. These look dope though 👍🏻
Had the dc legacy most comfortable shoe ever and skated very well
I used to love wearing DC while not skating for comfort and rocking vans or emerica while on boars
Back in the day I would take a Bmx tube and cut a square out of it and put some holes in it and lace it on too the spot where Ollie’s rip your shoe up. Pretty genius I know 😂
I want an og dc avatar again like gallant wore back in the day
My first question how much are they.....dc be gettin a lil wild with pricing
Imma guess between $100-130. But the thing is that the shoes have technology in them and are built to last so it’s normally worth the price
Compared to like $100+ nike dunks with no tech, so pretty reasonable pricing on the DCs I’d say atleast
i am with chris on the strap situation. should have stamped “Shanahan” on the strap. no color, just stamping. would have made it a liittle more interesting to look at from the front but kept it clean.
Either embroidered or with rubber.
Clocker 3 was so sturdy man.... remember the rudy j or rick howards
When these dropping??
Bring back Ellington 2
Kelly bring back the square 3 a vulc accell would be amazing
Please bring the es's kosten 2 back kelly ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It looks how the picture looks. Crazy 😅 2:13
DOPE
They're sick.
Didn't emblazen it but very cool
Support the core!!lets kick the big corps out skateboarding.Long live Axion,Duffs,IPath,DVS,És,Etnies,Emerica,Lakai,DC.
Dc is owned by a big corp :,(

It's blasphemy to review a shoe without Steezus.🖤👑
I love the fact that fat shoes are coming back, man. Need that support for my feet.
Uh oh Kelly almost spoke out of turn about éS. I'd like to see newer takes on old school shoes from éS but they've have to do it right.
NAST ass burp 5:06
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
The chunkier, the better. F that strap though
Those a Roger's size aint it 😂😂😂😂
it looks good, but for skate a slip on is all I need
removeable strap is sick!
Is it a hiking boot?
I would love it if you guys found a product you don’t like
😍👍👍👍

Makes total sense why they took Rog off camera.
Why though?
Sucks lol but my green air walks sent me
Velcro needs to be a thing. No laces, just velcro. I hate laces, no matter how I tie them.

Damn that is one ugly shoe!
