adidas Skateboarding recently launched the Matchcourt skate shoe, a high-performance footwear option that combines heritage and technical design. The Matchcourt takes inspiration from the Nizza Hi and adds a rubber toe-cap for added protection at the fore-foot for all those necessary movements in the sport. Skate legend Mark Gonzales recently sat down with adidas at his art studio to talk about his early days in the sport, recalling a appearance on a Thrasher cover, as well as his design inspiration for his new shoes. The full video is viewable below so take a look and pick up a pair of the adidas Skateboarding Matchcourt today at select retailers around the globe.
