With the British Summer in full swing right now it’s all about canvas shoes. Not only do they wash well unlike suede, they are more forgiving when it’s hot and our feet should be the highest priority considering the amount of grief we all put them through in every session.

Lakai‘s latest winner is the new Marc Johnson model. Famed for being stolen by the dude in Fight Club in the clip below, MJ has chosen a pure chiller with a slim footbed, griffin outsole and a lightly padded upper for comfort. Since the Lakai Camby has effectively taken all the honours for the ultimate off-board choice, MJ’s versatile skate shoe can either get you through a sesh or assist you at the bar. The choice is yours, but keep it skater owned for maximum stoke.

These should be in skate shops this August, ask your local SOS to order them in for you.

The legendary Simon Woodstock has not one but two guest decks out on Death Skateboards this month. Famed for his larking about on a skateboard in the 90s, Woodstock’s clowning about was well documented and hit the headlines everywhere. Stoked he has made a return alongside his overseas buddy Dan Cates who also has a Clown deck out in 8.25″.

Both decks come with amazing graphics from Craig Questions with Woodstock’s Clown guest model in 8.5″. There’s also a huge 10.5″ Polka guest deck with graphics from DJ Titchener. Look out for them in your local skate shop this month.

From the bizarre to the ridiculous, Santa Cruz have hooked up with San Francisco artist Jeremy Fish to produce a one-off hairy set up that is sure to throw you off a boardslide on first try!
