Why choose the Tiago 1010 Skateshoe?

The 1010 is a massively popular shoe from New Balance and really helped to bump them up the puffy shoe tier list! The 1010 was designed before Tiago joined the New Balance Numeric roster, but as soon as he was on it made sense to team him up with this tech street skating shoe. It has loads of padding and a snug secure fit that is perfect for anyone who is hitting up a lot of ledges and flips, the shoe is designed to offer loads of control but also high levels of support and cushioning.

This is not a mini-ramp or slappy skater shoe, and it's not really a transition or park skater shoe, it's a straight-up street skating shoe. And did me mention it is TECH?

The numbers New Balance use to identify their shoes corresponds to how tech the shoe is, with a higher number meaning a more tech shoe. With a whopping 1010 units of techness, the 1010 is techier than a game of SKATE at MACBA. What else would you expect from the GOAT, Tiago Lemos' pro shoe?
