DC Shoes and FTC have come together to develop the Lynx S FTC, a shoe representing two great skateboarding icons. FTC, established in 1986, humbly began as a small collection of skate gear and over the past three decades, FTC has earned the reputation as one of the true epicenters of real skate culture. By 1994 FTC opened the doors of its first shop in San Francisco’s historic Haight-Ashbury.
With it's storied history and deep roots in skateboarding, DC is honored to have teamed up with FTC to create an exclusive colorway of the 20th Anniversary Lynx. Drawing inspiration from FTC’s longtime neighbor, this colorway features the floral print and burgundy accents of the tablecloths and sangria of the legendary Cha Cha Cha restaurant making this a collaboration that pays homage to all the best San Francisco has to offer.
The Lynx S FTC is DC's most iconic silhouette redesigned and inspired by the infamous Cha Cha Cha restaurant in San Francisco. It features a foam padded tongue and collar for comfort, internal mesh sleeve for superior fit, and a high impact ortholite sockliner for protection. Additionally, the cup sole construction, sandwich mesh tongue and vent holes for breathability give the Lynx S FTC a comfortable feel along with proven last and fit.
