Tyler Pacheco’s second colorway has hit the shelves. This time it is a collaboration with him and his friend Jayme Lemperle’s production company, Stale Bagel. It wouldn’t be complete without a commercial, written and directed by Tyler himself. Shop the Stale Bagel collection HERE.
Griffin Gass for The Manchester XLK – LAKAI
Back by popular demand, the Manchester XLK redefined the skate shoe model in the mid 2000’s. The design was the opposite of the market at that time, yet it had everything a skate shoe needed. It was a simple design with a streamlined silhouette and seamless toe. Minimizing the panels reduced seam blowout which created a more durable skate shoe. A basic concept that still holds true with today’s skateboarding. A nod to the past with modern technology. We are welcoming back two original colorways from their first inception in 2004. Shop the Manchester XLK HERE.
Manchester – Lakai Footwear

Flare Canada – Lakai
The Lakai crew took off to Montreal, Quebec for a week of skating and exploring. The city was beautiful and the people were as welcoming as could be. Lakai spent the week skating spots around the city, kicking it at the local diy and trying to find the best poutine. The trip ended at the Empire Open, one of the biggest events and contest of the year. Good times and heavy revs were had, and we came up with this tour video featuring Cody, Yonnie, Manchild, Capps, and Ty Peterson.

The Atlantic by Vincent Alvarez – Lakai Footwear
Vincent Alvarez’s long anticipated new pro model shoe, the Lakai Atlantic, makes its debut. Featuring an all new upper on our updated XLK performance cupsole technology. Vincent grew up in the East LA area off of Atlantic Blvd. for most of his life, so we thought it was a perfect name. Of course, Vincent has some new footage to go with it. Pick up a pair HERE.
Splatter Collection by Porous Walker – LAKAI
Introducing the second installment of Lakai by Porous Walker. We could explain to you what the project is and how it happened, or you can just watch this video.

Lakai x Baker Riley Hawk Collection
Riley came to Lakai after the launch of his Dad’s shoe, inspired by the commercial that Tony and Manchild had created. He wanted to do something similar, a conceptual commercial with a collection to match. Riley decided to create an 80’s Dogtown vibe with the shoes, apparel, and commercial. Baker was down to make it a co-branded project, and the rest is history.
Cody Chapman for the Newport Hi – LAKAI
Cody Chapman comes correct with his team edition Newport Hi Colorway and Cold Dawg Pack. Cody moved to Los Angeles 6 months ago and has stayed busy in the streets. When deciding what to shoot for his newest ad, he decided to take it back home to Santa Cruz, CA right down by the beach. Enjoy this commercial from Cody’s ad shoot complete with homies, brews, and plenty of stoke!
The Fremont Vulc by Yonnie Cruz – LAKAI
When it came time for Yonnie to design a team edition shoe, he decided to put his own spin on an existing model that he already loved to skate, the Fremont. Yonnie updated and colored the Fremont upper and put it on our PARA-MOUNT™ outsole with DELUX-LITE™ footbeds and custom insole artwork. Watch him put them to the test in this heavy line at Union Square. Pick up a pair HERE.
