Liner: USD Myfit Shadow Eclipse Crossliner

This liner is a cooperation between MYFIT and USD, one of the leading skating brands for urban aggressive skates. This specially designed walkable liner will be featured in the new USD SHADOW skate. The concept is easy: combine the best of a liner and a shoe to create a fully functional walkable liner, which performs in as well as out of the skate. The Eclipse Crossliner is made to perform using only the best materials and components. The boot outside is made of high abrasion nylon including welded on TPU for extra protection and reinforcement. The boot comes with two separate laces – the lower part gets laced by high end waxed laces locking your foot perfectly. A fast lacing system on top optimizes the heel lock and enhances control. The abrasion resistant rubber outsole covered with thick EVA foam acts like a shock absorber. It absorbs shocks, gives extra cushion, controls impact and is really comfortable to walk on, too. Like other liners, the MYFIT series carry all the usual specs like anatomical ankle padding, and a well-defined Achilles padding to give the perfect heel lock and eliminate any movement. The liner includes the MYFIT skate sole for extra support and control. The tongue is nicely padded and wraps around your shin perfectly giving comfort and providing front flex. The rear has a nice and low V cut with soft SBR material and reinforced carry strap. Welcome to the best of both worlds, liner and shoe in one with a cool and urban look.

Closure: Front strap, 45º flap with buckle, toe strap

3 strap system will keep your foot locked into place with minimal heel lift.
