Judging by the massive ankle supports on these, Rob Dyrdek must have another worlds largest skateboard record attempt coming up. Dyrdek holds 21 Guinness World Records he set while filming Rob & Big, could a 22nd be in store for ‘most padded sneaker’ for the DC Shoes Royal? These joints feature a massive, cushy shroud around the ankle that’s held in place by a velcro strap passing thru the tongue tag, a look that’s one of the more ostentatious from DC Shoes in years. Both of these pairs are done entirely in patent leather, with grey/neon and royal/white pairs both available at select DC stockists like Atlanta’s Standard.
