Spotlight: Magnus

Posted in Product | August 23, 2010

The Magnus is made for the real serious BMXer, we don’t mean the stern faced dudes who constantly talk about their sprocket sizes and ponders the weight of their bike more than they actually ride it. We actually mean the guys who put a lot of time and effort into progression and force themselves to learn new tricks or create new lines, the guys we are on about are the guys who live and breath BMX because they are addicted to it.

The Magnus was created for guys like these, a super-tacky natural gum rubber outsole was put in place for improving foot jams and pedal grip, the multi-zone pattern has been tried and tested more times than we can remember and we believe it’s supreme in every way. The eva midsole is there as with every model to help as much as possible when you slap that concrete hard, the PU suspension bed is integrated into it and serves as great big cushion of heel protecting love.

The upper is made from waxed full grain leather, perforated nubuk leather, suede leather and nylon fibre textiles. This lot should protect those weakened BMX ankles and keep your foot fully propped up.

A thin padded tongue and collar make up the rest of the upper and we have even included a removable strap to acquire to your fashion or function preference.
