First Try Braille Skate Shoes

Description

FIRST TRYYYYYY!

DESIGN

Aaron Kyro was involved firsthand in every step of the design process, making sure to combine the best parts of all his favorite skate shoes.

Chosen for the classic silhouette, comfort, freedom of movement, and ease to wear – The Braille Skate Shoe was designed to be the perfect all-around skate shoe.

CONSTRUCTION:

We opted for a cupsole construction (vs. vulcanized) in order to improve the overall support and durability of the shoe.

The footbed used in the Braille shoe has been specifically developed to provide the wearer with an optimum level of comfort and support while also remaining lightweight and maintaining a good level of board feel.

The outsole, made from a rubber (SBR) compound, is commonly used in quality footwear to provide excellent grip, comfort, and durability resulting in a high-performance skate shoe.

MATERIALS:

The Upper is made of high-quality suede sourced from Spain to provide the classic skate look and feel. The tongue and collar of the shoe have been reinforced with a foam padding for extra comfort and foot support. The front part of the shoe (the vamp) uses a singular piece of suede which greatly increases the durability.

The laces are high-quality cotton which increases their longevity with little to no chance of snapping.

This shoe has a unique front toe bumper with a prominent texture for added grip while doing technical skate tricks.

PLEASE NOTE We recommend that you use a product like ‘Scotch Guard’ on your First Try Shoes while they are new to help keep them in good condition for longer – Suede can also be prone to colour bleeding while new, so care should be taken to avoid contact with light coloured materials (like your favourite white jeans).

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN:

Portugal.

SIZING:

Shoes are standard men’s sizes and fit true to size. Ladies! To convert over to women’s sizes, simply add 1.5 to the US size. For example, a men’s size 7 is a women’s size 8.5.
