DC shoes Josh Kalis white / grey leather

It doesn’t feel like a decade ago that Josh Kalis had his first pro shoe on DC shoes, but i i just realised that it pretty much is! time flies that’s for sure and DC as a once humble skate shoe brand have come along way. Producing quality skate shoes just wasn’t enough and so with the help of a mega ramp, a large wall, excellent snowboard and surf teams and the MTN LAB, they are now a house hold name.

Kalis is one of my all time favourite skateboards and still in my opion holds the title for most stylish tre flip, and that is one hell of a claim. Kalis has been with DC shoes a long time and this his 7th shoe on the brand is well deserved. The DC Kalis is featured here in white grey leather this shoe comes in around £60.00 and has all the tech features you’d expect from a DC shoe:

• Super suede, a superior version of suede that is more durable whilest maintaining grip and feel.
• Heavy duty suede upper
• soft full grain leather and full grain nubuck upper
• eyelets on medial side
• TPU eyelets
• foam padded tongue
• performance TPR wrap cupsole
• innovative DGT outsole for enhanced board control and durability

DVS Shoe Company is happy to announce that they have re-signed Granger Larsen to a new contract, his first as a professional, through 2011. Larsen was one of the hottest amateur prospects coming out of America the last few years and it was never more evident than his performance and domination at the 2008 NSSA Nationals. From Lower Trestles, Granger headed straight to J-Bay, South Africa for his first taste of the WCT in the Billabong Pro. Granger advanced through the trials and into the main event, eventually finishing =33rd to 3X World Champ, Andy Irons. More –> DVS Surf
