The reviews for skate sneakers – consisting of low, mid, and high tops – are consolidated on this page. We left no details behind in scrutinizing skate sneakers in the streets, skate parks, and our lab. Our in-depth analyses include orthotic-friendly pairs, kicks that are soft and cushiony as is, and those that focus on board feel.
