Kevin “Spanky”
Long and LA High.

KSL III LA High

We made a shoe match a school Spanky likes to skate.


Think about that for a moment.

There’s a school in LA which most skaters on the planet will never even get close to - and we are selling a shoe worldwide as a love-letter to that spot.

We matched the brick colors. We drove down to shoot photos there specifically in this shoe.

We’ve even made a fun little retrospective video to show you how much Spanky loves that place.

All for a school that most skaters will never, ever visit.

KSL III LA High

Spanky really loves skating that place.

Skateboarding is absurd.

The KSL III Brown/Tan, a new Winter 2025 colorway of Kevin “Spanky” Long’s celebrated signature shoe.

A timeless court silhouette refined for modern skateboarding, the KSL III was designed from the ground up with Spanky’s input. Built to endure the daily grind, it features a triple-stitched toe cap, blind-seam ollie area, and drop-in EVA footbed for long-lasting comfort. Underfoot, the internal Empact heel pod absorbs heavy impact, while a 400 NBS rubber outsole with herringbone tread delivers reliable grip and board feel.
