Originally released in 2001, the Truth was Josh Kalis’ second signature shoe for DC. And ever since re-issues became a thing in skateboarding, fans have been asking for its return. With its unmistakable DC DNA and bold design, the Truth was way ahead of its time. Even compared to today’s standards, the technically advanced design stands out from the pack of most modern skate footwear.
The Truth’s tech is second to none — even over 20 years later — mixing an athletic-inspired design with modern skate tech and durable construction. The multi-layered upper and mesh panels sit on a reinforced outsole with airbags and translucent rubber. It’s the quintessential early 2000s skate design, and fans have been asking for DC to remake it for years.
