DC SHOES KALYNX

The Kalynx story is as unique as the shoe itself. Back in 1998, as Josh was designing his first pro model (the Kalis OG), DC began sending him first round samples. Before the Kalis outsole had been fully designed, DC constructed the Kalis upper on the Lynx outsole so Josh could get a feel of how the shoe would skate. Over two decades later Brian Panebianco and Kevin Bilyeu were visiting Josh in Grand Rapids, MI, when they unearthed the shoe in his attic and posted photos on social media. Fans were immediately asking for the Kalynx, so when the conversation came up to do a shop collab with Nocturnal skateshop in Philly, the city which inspired Josh’s early years on DC, it only made sense to bring out the Kalynx. This limited release features a black upper with distinctive 3M highlights that represent the life after dark aesthetic of Nocturnal, and the tranquility of skating the city at night.
