Initial Thoughts: DC Landau S Shoe


DC Landau S
(Black/Suede)

         The DC Landau looks like a very basic, out-of-the-box skate ready shoe. It has a round triple-stiched toe cap, with double stiching on the rest of the upper, which seems it may blow out after not too long. It has optional lace protection on the first lace. The tongue, collar, and the sides of the shoe look padded well. The outsole is a cupsole, which i'm thinking a thin cupsole probably because of its flexibility.The insole looks very simple, has good arch support, but nothing special. The outsole has a basic herringbone tread on the bottom, which is very commonly used in skate shoes. As for the design, I really like it. To me, the design reminds me a little bit about the Emerica Reynolds Classics or the éS Accel tt's. Can't wait to put These on my feel and skate them!
