Lakai “Where The Wild Things Are” Collection

If you haven’t already heard the classic children’s book by Maurice Sendak “Where The Wild Things Are” is currently being made into feature film by everyone’s favorite skate video director Spike Jones. Since Spike has been down with Carroll and the rest of the Lakai crew since day one they’ve decided to make a couple special pair of kicks to correspond with the film. The Telford, Mariano 2, Howard, and MJ3 have been remixed in different variations with either Where The Wild Things Are stitched on the back, or one of the creatures. These should be hitting your local Lakai dealer within in the next couple of week, so be on the lookout.

DVS – The Skate Bar Series

DVS has partnered up with three legendary bars to present you with the Skate Bar Series.  The Dayton – The “Purdy Lounge” in Miami is one of south 
Florida’s most notorious skate bars. Shoot some pool, top off your Rum 
Runner with one of those tropical umbrella stirrers, and unwind with 
the local skateboarders of Miami.  Gavin CT – “The Dime” located in Los Angeles is where the local skateboarders that run this dimly lit Los Angeles Saloon. The red velvet interior of The Dime is a perfect compliment to the bar’s cold beers and strong cocktails. For LA skaters it’s the perfect afters session spot. Shoe the bartender your DVS Bar Series insole and get a free drink.  Finally, Zered – “Max Fish” in New York City.  When it comes to skate dives, there’s arguably none more infamous than  
New York City’s Max Fish. Come have a drink, try to get on the pool  
table, or come in just to throw a harsh sticker on the bathroom wall.  
On any given night they’ll be at least three random pros lurking out  
and you might even spot a few ams.  If you are 21 and over, and live near any of these establishments, there’s a bonus in it for you! In yet another innovative move by DVS, we’ve included a “free drink” coupon in the footbed of each shoe. Just be sure to bring your board…  
cause skating home is the funnest part.

*Please note that skateboarding while intoxicated could result in a 
variety of serious injuries and conditions including but not limited 
to: accepting a bad wheel sponsor on the way home, buzzed slappys gone  
bad, and an increased desire to talk about how skateboarding was so  
much better in the mid nineties.  DVS reminds you to please drink 
responsibly.  Support your local skate shop … and your local skate bar.
