Lakai Griffin Mid

Lakai have matched the change in the season with a new Griffin Mid in stunning brown suede. This all-weather model comes with a reinforced tongue, herringbone inner liner that should keep your feet toasty in the cold months ahead with a slimline cut.

Ask your local skate shop that sells skater owned products to get you a pair, and keep your feet skater owned.

French Fred’s Javier Mendizabal tapes

JAVIER Mendizabal FAKIE BLUNT_fredmortagne

These two fellas go back a long way so sit back and take in French Fred’s archived tapes of Javier Mendizibal shredding everything in his sights. All round ripper.

“I like shooting with Javier Mendizabal, he always super down for missions. His skating is very photogenic and different. I like the fact he’s into photography too. He shoots really good photos, so he perfectly understands some situations I put him in; very specific and precise ones to create strong images. Sometimes it requires patience and involvement from the “models”, and with Javier, for this fact, it’s always easy to shoot with him.” – Fred.
