The Lucas Premiere ADV is fast becoming adidas Skateboarding's stnadout shoe of the year. After an unreal Primeknit version arriving and selling out TWICE OVER not so long ago, the Three Stripes has taken things back to basics with the standard Lucas arriving in Solid Grey/Core Black, a staple colourway if ever we've seen one.
The upper comes in signature Lucas form, with a suede toebox transitioning into a lightweight mesh that wraps around the midfoot and heel. All of that comes in grey, as does the textured and sturdy heel counter, to create a lovely base for adidas' black leather Three Stripes on the lateral and medial sides. Also coming in black is the top of the heel, a classic tactic that nicely breaks up the grey, and finally, the woven adidas Lucas Puig label on the tongue comes in a crisp red.
The shoe performs every bit as good as it looks, too. The hybrid mesh and suede upper means that both breathability and durability are guaranteed, with the latter being further enhanced by the ADITUFF reinforcement around the front of the midsole. The thin sockliner works with the thin sole to provide unreal boardfeel, but still offers remarkable impact protection and overall comfort, and finally, a herringbone-patterned outsole means you'll be skating in security at all times.
Adidas Skateboarding's incredible Spring '17 footwear collection, packed with great skate-optimised technology and some incredibly stylish colourways, is available online here at Attitude Inc. and in our Colchester and Ipswich stores.
