DC Driving shoes!
�
�
Here is a peak at the new DC Driving shoes.
The high top is fully SFI / FIA certified race shoe.
They have many of the same features as DC's other shoes including their "Drop In Cushioning" which will make them great for standing and walking in.
The forefoot has a thin sole and will provide great pedal feel.
They are full grain leather - so they will clean and wear well.
The low top has the same features but is not nomex and is not certified.
They should be in stores in mid to late April.

Ken Block,

Thanks!

Those look nice, ive got some DC's and they are pretty comfortable.
| Easy Rider | 03-02-2007 05:56 PM |
I can't speak for Ken - but my understanding is that they are built on the same lasts - so they will therefore fit the same - size wise - as other DC shoes.
| subiebui | 03-02-2007 05:58 PM |
mmm i think im going to get a pair of the low cuts
| 05cgm | 03-02-2007 06:03 PM |
$200 a pair for the high tops, $100 for low.
| TRooper | 03-02-2007 06:44 PM |
I'm all over those red high tops. My fancy footwork deserves some fancy shoes. Call me a metrosexual,if you must, but I wouldn't mind having a matching set of driving gloves.

Yes because Ken Block needs more money.
Hah. But seriously, nice shoe. Very appropriate actually for DC to make.

Any word on the max size for these? Because I'd love a pair (my old pumas are getting a little worn) but I'm a size 14/15, which can be limiting to say the least.
| dyslexicwrx | 03-02-2007 10:30 PM |
I was going to post to see if they were going to make some and here they are! I have skated DC's for a while now and they are great shoes!
| Crzykdd | 03-03-2007 01:59 AM |
Eh, a camo black or some sort of black w/out pink highlights would be nice...
pink is for teh gay

Camo white Chicane is what I would like.
| n0hp4me | 03-03-2007 02:42 AM |
I used to look at driving shoes and think they were ugly.... but DC is going to do it right and make driving shoes look more casual and all around nice and hopefully cheaper then most driving shoes

Why is this in this thread?
DC shoes will probably continue to provide support to other drivers that they have on going relationships with.

I think i'll be ordering the camo white.
| WRXedUSA | 03-04-2007 06:52 PM |
It's cool they match the colors of the Gumball cars.
| erich_sc | 03-04-2007 09:12 PM |
Can't say I'm a fan of the camo, too bad. I'll probably still try on a pair.
| OBShahn | 03-04-2007 09:31 PM |
Can't wait for a list of DC stores that are supposed to stock these so I can try them on before using my RA thank you card for a pair or two.
| pbourcq | 03-04-2007 10:50 PM |
nice shoes...the pilottis are nice also

The Chicane's in White showed up on Monday - the other low tops later this week and ProSpec's by late March / early April.

Ouch. Guess I'll be sticking with my Simpsons.
DC should provide some as podium prizes at RA events.

Pretty much the same as other DC's - I am an 11 in "regular" DC's and I am an 11 in the Chicane's.
They feel awesome - put them on yesterday morning - boke them in in about an hour - now super comfy.
The Drop In Technology makes the heals feel great - WAY better than my Puma Replicats for walking around in.
Nice pedal feel in the FXT last night on the way home too.
Well done Ken.

Cool, I'll have to go figure out what fits for DC shoes (just don't wear skate shoes anymore) and wait for them to be online so I can use my thank you card.

Because they are driving shoes... does that mean you shouldn't use them for normal walking around and stuff? I have a set of DCs that I use for driving and walking around and stuff... but some of those are pretty cool.
| AttaQ | 03-14-2007 04:51 PM |
I can't wait until these are released, so I can check them out!
| nxttruck2002 | 03-14-2007 04:54 PM |

I always bought DC shoes when I was a skater. The are built to last.
These driving shoes look a bit bulky compare to the pumas.

Not to "jump" on you - but if Ken was not still as involved in DC as he is - there is no way there would be a driving shoe - let alone a sponsorship deal of he and Travis.
