Why Aussie Skaters Are Hyped on These Kicks
These aren't just any old sneakers. Every pair is designed by brands that live and breathe skateboarding. Nike SB brings that Zoom Air tech for cushioned landings.

The best part? These kicks transition from park to street without missing a beat. Rock them, skating, walking, or just flexing your style around town.
How to Pick the Right Skate Shoes for Your Setup
For Street Skating: Go for reinforced suede builds that can handle ledges and rails. Think chunky soles for impact protection.
For Vert/Bowl Riding: Lighter builds with flexible materials work best. You want ankle mobility for those deep carves.
For Cruising: Comfort is king. Look for extra padding and breathable materials for those long rides.
Sizing Tips: Most skate shoes run true to size, but if you like a snug fit for better boardfeel, consider going half a size down.

FAQs About Skate Shoes
What Makes Skate Shoes Different from Regular Sneakers?
Skate shoes pack way more punch than your average kicks. They've got reinforced areas where you ollie, stickier rubber for grip, and extra cushioning to absorb impacts. Regular sneakers just can't handle the beating that skating dishes out.
How Long Do Skate Shoes Last?
Depends on how hard you skate! Most quality pairs will handle 3-6 months of regular sessions. Pro tip: rotate between two pairs to make them last longer and let the materials rest between skates.
Should I Size Up or Down for Skate Shoes?
Most skate shoes fit true to size, but it's all about personal preference. Want maximum boardfeel? Go half a size down for that locked-in feel. Prefer comfort for long sessions? Stick with your normal size or go up half.
Can I Wear Skate Shoes for Other Activities?
Absolutely! Modern skate shoes are perfect for everyday wear. They're comfy, stylish, and built tough enough to handle whatever you throw at them. From skating to uni to hanging with mates, they've got you covered.
Do You Ship Skate Shoes Australia-Wide?
Too right we do! Boardstore ships quality skate shoes across Australia from our Sunshine Coast stores. Fast, reliable shipping gets your new kicks to your door so you can get back to shredding.
