World's best ultra-wearable footwear for any adventure People like to be active. To improve performance, move faster and go farther, man has invented many special types of shoes: rollerblades, cycling shoes, cleats, climbing shoes, heavy-duty hiking shoes and so on. But this progress can sometimes come at a price - too often this footwear is so specialized that we are forced to sacrifice on comfort, convenience and even safety. Simply put: it limits us. To overcome these limits, the Skinners were developed - ultra-wearable footwear for any adventure.
Skinners simply puts innovation into every step. Skinners are handmade in Europe and double-coated with durable tear-resistant polymer made from the finest Swedish materials and antibacterial fibers. And when they get dirty, just throw them in the washing machine (30° maximum). All this is possible thanks to our special Skinners technology that says goodbye to glues and seams (which can come loose over time). Skinners is the first in the shoe industry to do such a thing.
Skinners are designed to be as multifunctional as you ... So what can you use them for?
ROLLER BLADING - Who likes to ride around on their rollerblades with an extra pair of shoes in their backpack for when you need to take the rollerblades off? Probably no one. So just leave your backpack of shoes at home and try the ultra-portable Skinners. They easily fit your back pocket and are so small you won't even notice they're there. This way you can fully enjoy your ride.
FITNESS & YOGA - Socks, flip-flops, running shoes - the footwear of sports enthusiasts. Each type of shoe has its advantages and disadvantages, its lovers and its haters. Skinners combine the advantages of each: the freedom of a sock, the good grip and basic security of shoes. All wrapped up in two handy pieces of wearable awesomeness. And we almost forgot: they're antibacterial and washable.
TRAVEL - That 10-hour flight or bus ride can be tough on your feet: trapped in shoes simply because you can't take them off because of the cold, dirty ground or embarrassing smell. And what about those extra pairs of shoes you pack anyway for "just in case" but never actually need anyway? Try Skinners! They give you the comfort you need while taking up no extra space in your luggage.
CAMPING & HIKING - Your hiking boots may have done their job during that 20km hike, but after that it's time to give your feet a rest. Skinners give you the freedom to move around the campsite, hotel or mountain lodge without getting dirty, wet or stung.
RUNNING - The thin elastic bottom of Skinners simulates the barefoot experience and forces your feet to adapt to the terrain. This leads to a more effective workout of all your foot muscles and tendons (this is best practiced on natural or soft surfaces). A strong athlete starts with strong feet. Simply put, you can't build a skyscraper on a weak foundation.
USE THEM EVERYWHERE ... Take Skinners on your next walk with your dog, use them in the office, at home or around the house. Bring them to a beach volleyball game, the gym or anywhere you like. The possibilities are endless...
"The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art." These are the words of Leonardo da Vinci and like him, we believe your foot has all the technology you need. Skinners was invented to effectively protect this masterpiece while supporting all the amazing things it can already do.
