Skate Clothes and Shoes Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose skating shoes?

The best skate shoes are durable and low-cut, with a flat rubber outsole. Look for a vulcanized outsole (thinner, better for footwork and technique) or a cupsole (thicker, more protection and durability). They’re usually made with leather, suede or canvas, and many have protective overlays.

What are clothes to wear when skateboarding?

Since your shoes will have frequent contact with the board, rails and ground, wear leather or canvas skate shoes with a flat rubber outsole. Chino or denim pants are popular for their durability. For the upper body, wear whatever keeps you comfortable.

When did adidas skateboarding start?

adidas skateboarding started in 1989. Since then, adidas has worked with skate pros Dennis Busenitz, Mark Gonzales and Nora Vasconcellos, some of the most trusted names in the sport.
