Skate Shoes Brand Debate

Deciding on the best brand of skate shoes is heavily dependent on personal preference . Hard-core skateboarders will defend their favourite brand of skate shoes and will more often than not stick with that brand for a long time .  First of all, every skateboarder will have their own unique style in terms of how they skate, how often they skate, and what it is they are trying to show off, in regards to style or skill.

While some skateboarders love cruising lazily around the neighborhood, some are perpetually pushing themselves to do bigger and better tricks . So as you can see, these two styles alone will heavily dictate as to what type of shoe is best suited for the situation at hand .

It is for these reasons that it becomes nigh impossible to pick one brand that every skater will universally agree on as being the best . Rather, a better way to approach the subject would be by listing the top 3 brands that most skaters can unanimously agree on in terms of quality, durability, and overall style .

Fallen Footwear

If you are looking for a good all rounder pair of skate shoes , I would suggest you take a look at Fallen Footwear’s Fallen Troopers. Not only do they look great, they are also designed to last a long time. Some of the features that the shoe boasts are Velcro straps, gel pads, thick padded tongues, and heel collars. However, as good as these shoes are, you will find it difficult to locate them because they are only available at certain shops.

Vans Shoes

This company has been around for a very long time . Their long history and vast experience leads them to creat some of the best skate shoes . While they do offer a huge range of skate shoes it is able to meet both the budget skateboarder right up to the professional skateboarder, I highly recommend that you take a look at the higher end models.

Some of the features Vans skateboarding shoes offer are toe caps, durable padded tongues, thickly padded heel collars, ventilation and comfort control, and a huge variety of dissimilar styles to help any skateboarder look good. The only downfall to this shoe is that the laces seem to break easily as they are not well protected. Vans shoes are readily available online and in stores.

Globe Shoes

Globe skate shoes are manufactured from a skateboarding shoe company in Australia . One thing you will notice when trying these shoes on is that they are extremely comfortable. In addition to being comfortable, these skate shoes are also extremely durable. This is accomplished through multiple layers of leather and reinforced rubber. The only thing that might hold you back from purchasing globe shoes is that they are incredibly expensive but the added cost is worth it .

By focusing on these top 3 skate shoe brands, you should be able to find a particular style that will suit your personal preferences as a skateboarder, whether you are just a casual neighborhood cruiser or a hard-core trickster that has nothing to fear.
