How do the Crush 500 JR skate shoes limit impacts against the foot?

A thick tongue limits impacts of the skateboard against the foot.

What kind of grip do you get from these skate shoes?

These skate shoes provide superior traction on skateboard decks.

Are these skate shoes robust?

The leather upper offers great robustness against the skateboard grips.

The front reinforcement offers extra protection for tricks like flips.

What are the differences between high and low shoes?

Aside from their style, high and low shoes do not offer the same advantages.

A high upper provides more stability and protects the ankle by supporting it better.

A low upper will offer a greater range of movement and lighter weight.

What is a cupsole?

The cupsole is composed of 3 parts: an outsole, midsole and insole. Cupsoles are not heated, but are stitch bonded to the shoe to make them sturdier than a Vulca sole. This process creates a longer-lasting sole with better cushioning and resistance to wear. The support is also better than on a shoe with a vulcanised sole.
