Lakai Original Koston

Lakai Original Koston

After Eric Koston left eS Footwear in 2006, he hooked up with Lakai and designed this classic skate shoe. The Original Koston has lasted because of its flexible soft rubber outsole and form fitting uppers that allow for a lightweight and grippy ride. Comfort over protection for the fearless skater.

Eric Koston is one of the most influential skaters of all time. The grandfather of S.K.A.T.E. and originator of the crooked grind, or “K-grind,” among other tricks, Koston is better switch than some pros are natural. In 2000, he proved his dominance by winning the Globe World Contest, X Games and Gravity Games all in the same year. Bangkok-born, California-raised Koston never disappoints, even if he didn't win a medal at his 11th X Games appearance. Skater Video | Skater Web Site
