Does ASICS make skate shoes for men?
Yes, ASICS makes men’s skate shoes. Two of our most popular models are the GEL-VICKKA ™ PRO shoe and JAPAN PRO™ shoe.
The GEL-VICKKA™ PRO skate shoe draws inspiration from the classic '80s VICKKA™ training shoe, known for its stability during complex training movements. We built the forefoot upper using one-piece construction to help prevent lace tearing and redesigned the sockliner to offer more stability and better control over your center of gravity. GEL™ technology in the heel also helps decrease the impact of kickouts and hard landings.
JAPAN PRO™ men’s skateboard shoes feature a design based on the classic '80s ASICS FABRE™ JAPAN S™ basketball shoe from 1981, updated with skateboarding-specific features. These men’s leather skate shoes feature suede paneling on the upper that is triple-stitched for extra durability, while the elastic band and thicker tongue give you a more comfortable and supportive fit.
Choosing the best men’s skater shoes for you
The right men’s skate sneaker for you depends on your preferences and riding style. For example, a street skater who primarily skates gaps and handrails may have different needs than a transition skater who generally skates bowls and halfpipes.
Everyone has a unique approach to skating, as well as specific features they’re looking for in a shoe. Choosing the best men’s skateboarding shoe for you ultimately comes down to finding a pair that feels comfortable under your feet, offers support where you need it, and makes you want to keep pushing.
