Skate shoes tend to have a flat sole which makes them great for skateboarding – allowing maximum contact with the board for added balance. This makes them perfect for general day to day use, especially if you do a lot of standing and walking.
Skateboarding is hard-wearing on shoes, which is why skate shoes are made of some of the most durable materials for the sole and the upper. They are also designed with comfort, padding and flexibility in mind, making them great for many other uses.
The popularity of skate culture has also made skate footwear some of the most sought after and well-designed footwear available.
