Spotlight: The 1&9

Posted in Articles, Product | August 10, 2010

Jared Washington’s first Almond™ pro model is a simple, super-sleek and effortless shoe. However, don’t be fooled; the 1&9 is built for all the abuse BMXin’ can give. Designed with a casual yet solid style in mind, the 1&9 features a durable upper made from rough canvas and synthetic suede leather. The moulded PU insole with comfortable foot bed cushion is designed to absorb a wide range of impacts and reduce heel bruising which at times can put us out of riding for weeks.

The 1&9 has a comfortable and flexible vulc style cup sole construction, a sticky gum rubber outsole and a grippy Almond™ rhombus pattern.

Conclusion huh? the 1&9’s are exactly what you need for riding, chilling, cruising or just sticking them up on the coffee table and watching the box.
