Los Angeles-based designers FTP joins forces with DC Shoes on a new collaborative effort to spotlight the classic Lynx OG sneaker. The old silhouette from its archives is revived for the season, designed to breach a new angle this year. The footwear model is made up of suede materials throughout the uppers in a tonal gray color.
It is joined by a thick midsole adorned with branding details recalling 'DC SHOES' found around the heel area. Additional details include the signature traction pattern at the outsole shaped like a pill. There are also branding accents recalling FTP along with the laces all the way up to the tongue area as well as the heel area.
