Skateboarding is a sport where good balance and coordination by the skateboarder are very important. Skate shoes are very important in the world of skateboarding. Much of the success in skateboarding can be attributed not just on the skill of the skateboarder, but to his equipment as well and that includes his skate shoes, which are just as important as the skateboard itself. Using a very good pair of skate shoes is paramount to skateboarding because it will help the skateboarder maintain a good balance and traction on his skateboard.

Skate shoes are specifically designed and made for skateboarding, although it can also be used as ordinary footwear on most days. You can’t just use any type of shoe when skateboarding, especially when you are entering a competition. Skate shoes differ from the usual shoes we wear on normal days in several small ways. There are features that are typical in a pair of skate shoes and these are very essential in skateboarding. These features are designed to make the whole business of skateboarding a whole lot easier, and enhance the performance of the skateboarder. The features will help prevent heel bruises, and it also increases the skateboarders “feel” of his skateboard since it has increased flexibility and an enhanced grip.

Skateboarders often go through a pair of a skateboard shoe quickly since the said pair of shoes tends to receive regular battering from the harsh use of skateboarders, especially when they are practicing new tricks. You might be wondering how practicing new tricks could damage a pair of skate shoes really fast. It is because it is during practice where many attempts are made to perform a certain trick, during failed attempts the shoes are the very first things to get the impact from the pavement or the board. This is the shoes’ way of protecting our feet and that is why most skate shoes are designed to have triple stitch so that it would last longer from the harsh conditions that it is exposed to.

The air pockets feature at the heel part of the sole might give the impression that it is just a design but a closer look at it will tell you that it does serve a good purpose. The purpose of this is to minimize the amount of impact that the ankle will receive by absorbing the impact at the sole and dissipate the force through the air pockets. An additional help to minimize an impact that the foot could receive is from the cushioning foam. This cushioning foam is always present in all skateboard shoes. This mechanism helps absorb the impact in the inner sole. This cushioning mechanism both serve to protect the feet from impact of use and as a comfort measure during regular use.

Among the popular and renowned names of skate shoes available in the market are the DC shoes, Nike SB shoes and the DVS shoes. These brands have been a popular choice by avid fans of skateboarding and by the actual competitors of skateboarding competitions as well. Let’s have a rundown of what these brands of skate shoes have to offer.

DC Shoes is one of the pioneers in manufacturing skate shoes. Most DC Shoes have a soft molded phylon within the midsole for a higher absorption of impact. It also has a ventilation system that utilizes polyurethane midsole to provide constant airflow. As for the cushioning, it has a thermoplastic urethane airbag in the midsole to provide for that. The foot bed of the DC shoes was designed to bring the foot closer to the skateboard. It also has a Dynamic Grip Technology that includes a soft grip rubber on the outer edge for control, on the heel a hard rubber to ensure durability, and in the inner forefoot is a medium rubber to provide for traction. Most DC shoes also have a super suede upper while on the toe area a polyurethane-coated leather is utilized as this is even more durable than rubber yet still remain as flexible as leather. Impact from all the skateboarding tricks is lessened as DC shoes have an impact-absorbing gel in place at the heel and toe area. One of the more popular DC Shoes for skateboarding that has received good reviews from skateboarders is the Lnyx 2. DC shoes have been sported by various skateboarding pros and even celebrities.

Skate shoes went into rage in the mid 1990s as the sport gained a large crowd of followers. Nike tried to get into the skateboard shoe market, yet the demand for the shoes eventually died out with the fall down of the hip-hop culture. It was not until 2002 when Nike went back into the skateboard shoe business by introducing the Nike SB shoes. The Nike SB did not fare well in terms of popularity as its design being seen as ugly. Yet, the fact remains that Nike is an expert when it comes to engineering shoes. The Nike SB has features including a padded tongue and collar, and it also has a "Zoom Air" sole similar to the DC technology. Nike SB has introduced a couple of skateboard shoe lines under its wing that enlists skateboarding pros as product endorsers. It began with skateboarding pro Paul Rodriguez was given his line of Nike SB shoes called P-Rod II. Among the Nuke SB shoes, the Nike Dunk is the more popular one in the market.

The DVS Shoes originally started as a company producing skate shoes. Its skateboarding tradition has been in the market since 1995. It is the first brand of shoes to introduce skate shoes for kids. The DVS shoes have been designed to meet the needs of skateboarders and enable them to go on with their business at ease. Today, DVS shoes have a wide array of designs to meet each skateboarders, unique taste and personality. The DVS shoes have features that streamline skateboarding in its designs. It has a great cushioning and shock absorbing system to receive impact from all the skateboarding tricks. It also has a ventilation system utilizing a breathable mesh on the tongue on some of its designs, and it utilizes perforated foam to reduce heat within the shoe. Its soles are non skid. The upper of the DVS shoes is made from either leather suede or nubuck. A triple stitch construction provides for its durability. The tongue straps are elastic to make it more comfortable. The DVS has been sported by skateboarding pros and even some have been given sponsorship and a line of DVS skate on shoes under their name.
