Incredibly hard to name a favorite with such a stacked team over all those years. I‘d say Mike Mo or Mariano, but as a German, I will always have a Special Place in my heart for the Euro guys, Lucas Puig and JB Gillet. Would be thrilled for a 14 things on Zoo York, they have an interesting history, and were the Heart and Soul of eastcoast skating for so many years. Keep it up guys!
I haven't skated in 8 years but when I did, lakai ended up being my favorite shoes and I've had plenty of them. I'm looking at getting back into skating now as soon as I can afford a complete and some shoes.
It’s finally here!!! Been waiting on this one! Thank you shredz shop for this amazing work 💯 I also gotta say I think Levi has the presentation skills to host awards and things of that nature 🔥 dude is natural on the camera 📸
True Story: I remember when Lakai first started when I was a teenager. 18 years later I found my way back to skateboarding and the first skate shoes I bought were...a pair Lakai's.
IDK man, I've had almost every of Vans' best sellers and they're as good today as the 1st time they released. And those from the skate (formerly pro) line, are way better. Lakai, in the other hand, it's always a hit or miss as the fit of their footwear is never consistent. The Telford reissues are criminally narrow around the toe area and have a much slimmer profile compared to the original. And I haven't heard good things from their other models either. Quite frankly it's a miracle they're still in business. Besides the obvious choices like Nike, Adidas and Vans, I always recommend any other skate shoe brand, but Lakai.
Just got my first pair of lakais a month ago. They're great shoes. Thanks for doing these videos. They're A lot of fun to watch. If I could share my opinion on lakai. The shoes I have remind me of Vans but are more durable and much more stable around the heel making for excellent fit.
@@ShredzShop not sure bro sorry its been ages, the clips at Playstation are at around @4:10 in your video though. you see marc skate over a barrel and the hubba has PSPSPSPSPSPS across it. My mate's mum used to run the old food stall in there and i went to a spanish school around the corner in Portobello(where they filmed Notting Hill), also Kyron on Nike SB is the son of Bullet who used to take care of the park back then. It's still around but now its owned by Nike SB after the park was bought by Microsoft and rebranded to XBoX skatepark from SONY before Nike SB picked it up and renovated. good times there, it was pretty much the only wooden park in London at the time and one of the only places to skate other than the Southbank when the rain hits. probably not what you asked for but then again this is a things you didn't know video. also i got to meet Mullen and Haslam at a jam there one time with my homie Tim Prozorov who now rides for DC in Estonia :) .many many good times
Not only are they some of the best looking shoes for anyone, skater or not (my girlfriend has a pair) they just hug your feet so elegantly. It's like a cuddle from God.
Great video as always... But I really wanted to know and was expecting to hear why they name their shoe models after British places?... Telford.. Cambridge, Manchester etc
Anthony Pappalardo's Fully Flared part is one of my favorites parts of all time, but Vincent Alvarez is probably my favorite skater of all time. Never thought about them both being Lakai guys, though
Vincent Alvarez is definitely Lakai for life! Pop used to be a big part of the brand too! I always remember him more as a Lakai guy than Cons. Hopefully he made some cash before that all fell apart
Lakai Telford are probably my favourite skate shoes of all times. I also skate some other Lakais models and I generally love Adidas (all kind of Busenitz models) but whenever I buy a new pair of Telfords it always feels like going home after a long tiresome trip and sleeping in your bed once again
@@ShredzShop no problems man - I do the full duty for the channels I like. I'm in the habit with it: hitting "like" and dropping a comment is a quick thing to do to show respect, and it helps you guys out some. Good work, as always :) "LiL'JpD."
i am 40 + so a lot of what you are talking about is new to me but i love skateboarding so much that i'll always be down to learn about the history and what is going on.
I feel bad, I’ve never owned Lakai’s, but I have my eye on the Flaco 2 Hi’s, also haven’t owned hi’s in over 10+years so it’s time to saddle up for both!!!
With Lakai, I always recommend trying them before you buy them. But in your particular case if you can't and a high top from Lakai is what you're after, get the Trugers instead.
that's interesting, i didn't know they were affiliated with dvs. i only had one pair from each of those brands and the soles came unglued super quick. disappointing enough that i never gave them another chance
One thing everyone knows about Lakai shoes - you better have a sponsorship, because these things won't last more than 1 - 2 weeks! I really like how they feel right from the box, but at the same time the durability is awful. I thought I could finally get away owning a pair now that I don't skate anymore, but now one month later there are already holes in the soles and I haven't even walked that much. However, despite that I think they are excellent shoes.
You guys ever gonna have a podcast. You'd be an awesome host. Just talking about this type of stuff and current events. Guarantee it would be better than the Mid Club.
😂 love response to haters. Anyways. I’ve never seen a lakai vid but am a fan Vinny so that’s how I learned of Lakai. I don’t really like most of designs especially the Vinny models but they have done some fire collabs lately like the Sabbath one and the recent Pharcyde one. I hope to get a pair. Keep up the awesome work Levi and Shred. Don’t trip on the haters. Maybe ignore them and respond to positive vibes . 😁🎃
Appreciate the kind words! Glad you enjoy the vids and Lakai! I've been pretty hyped on some of the Telford colorways lately. We ain't tripping on the haters, we think its funny haha 😛
@@ShredzShop cool man. As you have probably figured out I’m an old school skater but I’ve been trying to stay hip with all the stuff I missed on 90s and 2k. Shred helps me catch up. Jaa nine club also helps me catch up.
Jesus and the fuckin fisheye mang is constantly bouncing around my head any time i think of Lakai. But my fave rider is always McCrank, though i don't think he ever filmed for em (also kinda hoping vans will give him a shoe but doubt it... a girl can dream)
I want to know who the shoe designers were for each of the models they have I can’t find that information anywhere think you could team up with someone like wear testers and make an amazing collab video
@@ShredzShop lakai like you can find the info on linkedin but like the story behind the inspiration and ideas and how they are one of the few Nike didn’t go after in court like there’s a good story underneath them layers I mean es and dc probably have good stories too I’m sure also rose anvil is great breaking down the shoes from a cobbler perspective makes for informed buyers and you coming from a skate background thatd be a great collab video Id say
You missed out on where they got bought out by Altamont Holdings and then in 2017 got sold (as part of Huf) to Japanese company TSI, who were their Japanese distributor. They haven’t been owned by Carroll and Howard for years.

I cant believe Fully Flared is about 15 years old.. I started skating 2 years before that video came out and it changed skating forever.
Time flies when you’re skating!
Got my first pair of Lakai. They're Manchesters. Can't wait to try em! I've always had Vans.
IDK man, I've had almost every of Vans' best sellers and they're as good today as the 1st time they released.

That Muska comment cuts deep, I’m one year away from 40 lol

Don’t forget the Lakai Manchesters, one of the best shoe‘s created for skateboarding in my opinion.
Agreed!!
100% those and Reynolds 3’s were my go to
One of my favorite shoes ever was the Lakai Foster with the bubble.
A Classic Lakai shoe for sure
Over 40 ain't too bad and Muska is like fine wine... he gets better with age. Sending love from 704. Black Sheep 'bout to turn 20!

Lakai are great footwear they fit well and have great soles and amazing board feel. & You know its owned by skaters.
I have been impressed with the line up lately! Got a pair of Telford re-issues, first pair of Lakai Ive skated in a while and really like em.
I bought a pair of the Manchester cup sole reissues two years ago and got re-hooked on the brand. I haven’t skated anything else since.
_they fit well..._
