im pleased to present you with our 1st forray into the classic 90's model the lampin'. at one time very common amongst the mid-decade skate scene this model is now exceedingly rare. produced in some beautiful 2-tone colourways the meaning of the name always aluded me. perhaps in reference to an appropriation of the activity of lamping or spotlighting whereby one hunts not for nocturnal animals but instead for sites for a nocturnal street skate! the activity has now become hunting for the shoe itself that necessitates the site.
