Technology

STI Foam
The enormous impact forces generated during skateboarding push pressures underneath the foot to the limits and can cause over-stress injuries. With the latest cutting-edge research in hand, STI designers and engineers created STI FOAM™ insoles to help relieve these pressures and provide superior comfort to your feet.
-
System G2
System G2™ was the first technology ever developed by STI. Today it is recognized as simply being the best shock absorbing device for action sports shoes and boots. Inserted into the heel and combined with EVA or PU, System G2™ provides dual-cushioning comfort and protection that helps absorbs a wide range of impacts, from the very soft to the most extreme landings riders put on their feet to help reduce injuries and prevent heel bruises.
