Without everything, it’s nothing. Y’all or nothing.
Support is what Kyle needs to keep progressing. Support can come in many forms, but for Kyle, what matters is the long-lasting and enduring type of support that comes from the skate community, and it’s this same kind of durable support that he’s modeled his new signature shoe after.
Built on our revolutionary WAFFLECUP™ construction that offers the support of a cupsole without sacrificing any of the grip or boardfeel of a traditional vulcanized shoe, the Kyle 2 comes equipped with DURACAP™ reinforcement rubber underlays in high wear areas for unrivaled durability and new SICKSTICK™ gum rubber outsoles for next-level grip. The new POPCUSH™ energy return sockliners provide superior cushioning and impact protection while helping to lessen leg fatigue for longer skate sessions, and the addition of hook-and-loop closures helps lock in your fit.
The Kyle 2 is made with a mix of suede, sturdy canvas, leather, and polyester webbing.
• UNRIVALED DURABILITY - Reinforced DURACAP™ underlays in high-wear areas add unrivaled durability to prolong the life of each shoe.
• WAFFLECUP CONSTRUCTION - Our most visually expressive WAFFLECUP™ outsole is the best of both worlds, providing superior boardfeel, maximum support, and durability.
• POPCUSH CUSHIONING - Our best cushioning and impact protection. POPCUSH™ energy return footbeds protect your feet while helping to lessen leg fatigue for longer skate sessions.
• LEGENDARY GRIP - Our new, proprietary SickStick™ gum rubber compound is our stickiest rubber yet.
