Skateboarding has always been a source of inspiration for fashion, from the baggy clothes of the '90s to the sleek styles of today. But one thing that never goes out of style is the chunky skate shoe. These big and bold sneakers are back in a big way, making waves in both the skate and streetwear scenes.
If you grew up in the '90s, you probably remember the chunky skate shoe craze. Brands likeOsiris, Etnies, and DC Shoes dominated the market, making shoes that looked like they could survive a nuclear blast.
These shoes were not just for show, though.They had thick, padded soles and sturdy ankle support, giving skaters the comfort and security they needed to pull off insane tricks.
"We are stoked to bring back the OG-1, one of our most requested reissues." Emerica announced.
They continued. "A classic shape from the golden era of skateboarding, the OG-1 has a full rubber cupsole, suede & mesh upper, triple stitch reinforcements for extra durability and the classic herringbone tread for ultimate grip just like you remember it. Made for Emerica fans. Made for skateboarding. Get yours now at your local skate shop."
