Choosing the Best Skate Shoes for You

The right skateboard shoes will increase your enjoyment and safety, whether pushing down the street, carving down a hill, or shredding it at a skatepark. Whether you’re an advanced technical trick master or enjoy surfing the sidewalk, your skating shoes are every bit as important as the skateboard you ride.

You can find ASICS skate sneakers to fit your skating style and your fashion sense. If you are looking for comfort in skate shoes, we offer cushioned styles. Black and white skate shoes and skating shoes in leather are two trends in the ASICS line.

What makes skate shoes different from regular shoes?

Skate shoes are different from everyday sneakers from the sole on up. From grippy outsoles that give you a good board feel to the cushioning that keeps you comfortable all session, you will find features that help you perform.

Skater shoes are a fashion choice for some, but if you actually ride a skateboard, you also want functionality. ASICS skateboarding shoes deliver on both fronts.

Each model in our lineup of skate sneakers offers features that set them apart from an ordinary sneaker. These include:

  • A rugged sole with a solid grip and traction that gives you a good feel and the control you need for confidence on the street and in the park.
  • Sturdy construction that makes for durable skate shoes that stand up to the demands you put on them.
  • Design features that keep your foot secure, whether you choose a skate slip-on or lace-up model.
  • Padding at the heel and strategically placed support throughout for cushioned skate shoes that soften hard landings.
  • Breathability for day-long comfort.

Why to choose ASICS skateboarding shoes

ASICS skateboarding shoes are the culmination of a detailed analysis at the ASICS Institute of Sport Science, where we studied the movements of skateboarders across different surfaces and structures. The insights we uncovered are engineered into the skateboard shoes we make, which include full lines of men’s skate shoes, women’s skate shoes and unisex skate shoes.
