    Design details

    Cast polyurethane insole: more comfort and protection when landing jumps.

    The polyurethane insole continues to absorb impacts while retaining boardfeel.
    At 9 mm thick under the heel and 5 mm under the toe, this insole has no fear of gaps.
    As the polyurethane doesn't stay deformed after being compressed, this sole retains its initial shape and its technical properties for longer.

    Is the new VULCA 500 II sturdy?

    Hidden Rubber Toecap (HRT): laminated rubber under the leather
    This additional durable, discreet protection stops holes developing as quickly on the sides of your shoes when they repeatedly rub against the board's grip.
    On top of this, the shoe's outsole is 11% thicker to stand up to wear without compromising boardfeel and grip.Protect areas that may rub with repair glue such as SHOE GOO II

    Sizing specially designed for skateboarding

    A skate shoe is the interface between the skater and their board. This is why it's important for your shoes to be relatively close-fitting: it gives you maximum precision and board control.
    We have listened to customer feedback and, based on this, redesigned it with a thinner, narrower shape. This closer-fitting shape helps you better feel the board when doing tricks, and increases precision and control in all situations.

    What is a vulcanised sole?

    A vulcanised sole is made from heat-treated rubber. Vulcanisation glues together the fabric upper, the rubber band and the sole.
    This technique has numerous benefits: flexibility and grip. This gives you a better feel of the skateboard for improved control when doing tricks.

    How do you choose your skate shoe size?

    New vulcanised skate shoes are generally fairly narrow during the first few uses.They adjust after being worn for a few hours (the vulcanised band deforms to fit the foot). The best thing is to get skate shoes that are fitted.For narrow feet, we recommend choosing your usual size.For wide feet, do not hesitate to choose one size above, especially when wearing them on a daily basis.

    How to make your skate shoes last longer with SHOE GOO II repair glue

    To extend the life of your skate shoes, we recommend using a shoe repair glue such as SHOE GOO II.The places that may wear easily like the OLLIES and FLIPS on the upper part of the shoe can be protected before use or repaired easily.The glue creates a protective layer against abrasion from the grip.In this way, your skate shoes will last much longer, until the sole is worn.
