About Skateboarding Shoes
Shred with Confidence: The Ultimate Guide to Skateboarding Shoes
Skateboarding is a sport that demands both style and function. Skateboarding shoes are more than just footwear; they're an extension of your board, allowing you to shred with confidence and control. With a vast array of styles and features available, choosing the perfect pair of skateboarding shoes can feel overwhelming. Fear not, aspiring shredders! This ultimate guide will equip you with the knowledge to navigate the world of skateboarding shoes, ensuring you find the perfect pair to match your riding style and keep you comfortable conquering those tricks.
Built to Last: Durability is Key for Skateboarding Shoes
Skateboarding involves wear and tear on your shoes. Here's what to prioritize for long-lasting performance:
- Sturdy Materials: Look for shoes made from high-quality materials like suede or canvas, known for their durability and resistance to abrasion.
- Double Stitching: Reinforced stitching, especially around the toe box and seams, adds extra strength and extends the lifespan of your shoes.
- Vulcanized Construction: This construction method bonds the sole directly to the upper, creating a flexible and board-feel sensitive shoe ideal for skateboarding.
Grip It and Rip It: Traction Matters in Skateboarding Shoes
Maintaining control on your board is crucial. Here's what to consider for optimal traction:
- Sole Pattern: A herringbone tread pattern is a popular choice for skateboarding shoes, offering excellent grip on various surfaces.
- Sticky Rubber: The quality of the rubber compound in the sole plays a significant role. Look for shoes with sticky rubber for maximum grip on your board.
Ankle Support: Finding the Balance Between Comfort and Protection
Ankle support is a personal preference in skateboarding shoes. Here's a breakdown of the options:
- High-Top Shoes: These shoes offer maximum ankle support, ideal for beginners or those who prioritize stability during landings and tricks.
- Low-Top Shoes: These shoes provide a more lightweight and comfortable feel, preferred by experienced skaters who value flexibility for board control.
- Mid-Top Shoes: These offer a compromise between ankle support and flexibility, suitable for skaters who want a balance of both.
Comfort Counts: Shredding Shouldn't Hurt Your Feet
Comfort is essential for long skate sessions. Here's what to consider for a comfortable fit:
- Proper Sizing: Ill-fitting shoes can lead to blisters and fatigue. Get professionally sized for skateboarding shoes, considering factors like width and arch support.
- Breathable Materials: Your feet will get hot during a skate session. Choose shoes made from breathable materials like mesh panels to keep your feet cool and dry.
- Break-in Period: Give your new skateboarding shoes some time to adjust to your feet. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in before hitting the skatepark.
Shred with Confidence: The Perfect Skateboarding Shoes Await

Remember, the right shoes can significantly enhance your comfort, board control, and overall skateboarding experience.

Just what my son was looking for
This shoes bring back memories from way back
Arrived quickly and looks amazing!Just based off of my impression on just receiving these shoes it's 5 stars all the way. I hope and pray that these shoes don't fall apart because I really dig the style, and on top of that these shoes are crazy comfortable.These shoes fit just as expected. Generally I wear a 9 but with some brands a 9.5 works better, in this case the 9 fits perfect and was the correct choice. (I had just purchased some "Globe CT-IV" skate shoes in 9.5 and they were slightly big, I mean, I could still get by with wearing them, maybe a little tissue in the toe, but a little big, so, just off of pure assumption I figured a 9 would be the way to go here with the osiris D3's and fortunately was dead on right. (Both the "globe CT-IV" and "Osiris D3" styles are pretty "clunky", it's a big style, thick materials, almost slightly oversize in some areas, so you should be expecting some big shoes, and coincidentally they have a somewhat similar fit)These shoes are crazy comfortable! It's a little difficult to get super right lacing, but you can function in these shoes just fine with the laces a little loose. Personally I think "fat laces" would suit these shoes way better, but I have yet to try placing some fat laces on them, so I could be wrong.These shoes style is way dope! Actually it's generally not my style by any means, (even though I have always sported skate shoes) These shoes are a little flashy compared to my usual style, but when I saw them I knew I had to have them. I got the gray with black, white and red, which was the color pattern that was most fitting with my currant style. ( I usually wear straight leg raw denim jeans or double front carhartt jeans with a grateful dead shirt, usually a grateful dead tie dye and a jacket, so it will be interesting to see how some osiris D3's fit into the mix, it's definitely a strange combination of work-wear, hippie-wear, and street-wear, but I really dig it.)Overall I'm way happy with purchasing these shoes. I just hope they hold up! I have a pair of the "Osiris troma redux" shoes, (the ones with the skull and the beautiful girl to the left of it and another skull facing sideways to the right of it, not the ones with the skull and praying hands) and they held up great over the years, unfortunately I can't find another pair! I saw some in little kids sizes, and found a white pair with the skull and praying hands that were way high priced, but can't find any viable replacement, so, I am hoping that osiris shoes are consistent in quality. If the D3's hold up anywhere near as well as the "troma redux's" ill be way happy.
There a sexy shoe...But have you ever owned shoes you refused to wear until the ice & snow melts?
Makes you a little taller .. true to size came right on time
Keeping it brief they're a sick design poor material shoe. My OG D3's have the foam tearing up just walking around in them, not sure how you could actually skate in these. That said not sure what to expect from these on that front yet. Sick looks though, absolutely true to size even with my slightly wider flat feet.
Best shoes ever
Comfortable and stylish. They look bulky on my feet and are a little heavy
