Done up with a classic wing tip toe for a touch of luxury, introducing the Sector 7 WT and Admiral WT of the Holiday 2009 DC LIFE Collection. Built on DC’s slim and comfortable dress sneaker outsole, filling the uppers are premium leathers and construction, a trademark of DC. The incorporation of cement and concrete colors, a staple element in skateboarding, runs as a key design thematic, and the honed stone effect on the collar and straps represent what ledges look like after they’ve been grinded. A unique double ankle strap—a first for DC—adds flare and class for days on the high top Admiral WT.
On the heels of Ken Block’s insane Gymkhana videos and the groundbreaking snowboarding/rally part to close out DC’s MTN.LAB 1.5 video, the DC Co-Founder and Rally Team Driver has joined with Subaru to make the world’s fastest cat track operation automobile for backcountry access for snowboarding. Dubbed the TRAX STI, a new teaser video from the test session for the highly-modified, snow-ready (to say the least) car is up on YouTube, and check out “0-60 Magazine’s” Web site for an interview with Block and photo gallery featuring the best photos from the session.
The TRAX STI is an experimental automobile that starts with Block’s competition-ready Subaru WRX STI before ditching the tires, adding snow cat tracks, and upgrading to some next-level suspension to create the ultimate backcountry shred car. Prepared by Vermont SportsCar, performance modifications include 400-hp and features Group N competition rally dampers made by EXE-TC and a KAPS 5-speed close-ratio dog-engagement gearbox. Under the hood sits a 2.5 liter, 4-cylinder, turbocharged and intercooled STI engine tuned with a MOTEC M800 ECU.
Longtime friends and collaborators DC and Mike Shinoda have joined forces again for a limited edition shoe, available exclusively at SURU in Los Angeles. His fourth Remix Series™ collaboration with DC, the shoe model last (Xander) was created from the ground up by Shinoda, with this latest incarnation featuring a new colorway and SURU logos on the heel, tongue, lateral side, and insole.

In this first collaboration between DC and RoyaleFam, they come with three shoes, a pair of board shorts, two t-shirts and two hats all designed by SBTG.

The collection will officially hit select skateboarding stores worldwide in January 2010.
This PK Ripper Fixed Gear is the 3rd installment in a series of limited edition bikes from DC and SE Racing.
