The new Superskate focuses on authentic design details that stay true to the original, while adding subtle, modern skate-specific upgrades. Influenced by early basketball silhouettes, the original Superskate was released in 1979 as a part of the first-ever collection of adidas shoes for skateboarding. It knowingly paved the way forward.
The reconstructed Superskate features a Bounce drop-in midsole for impact cushioning and comfort, a double-layered toe for added durability, a molded EVA sockliner, updated cupsole construction, and a newly redesigned heel with focus on support, flex, and flick.
