SKATE

Lizzie Armanto is the only woman with her name currently on a signature skateboarding shoe-but she didn’t set out to make a women’s skate shoe.

DON’T ASK FOR THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF BOARDFEEL AND SUPPORT. DEMAND IT. For Anthony Van Engelen, “Good enough” isn’t good enough—he’s barely satisfied with great. He’d only put his name on the most uncompromising, technically advanced skate shoe we’ve ever made, so you can imagine how demanding the design process was for his signature shoe, the AVE.

The Berle Pro was created with the idea that less is more when it comes to pushing the boundaries of skate progression.

Vans The all new Sk8-Low Pro. The UltraCush HD impact sockliners keep the foot close to the board while providing the highest level of impact cushioning, and the revolutionary Wafflecup construction offers the support of a cupsole without sacrificing any of the grip or boardfeel of a traditional vulcanized shoe.
