SOFIA—A BMX SHOE

Named after the city where SKILLDASH was born, SOFIA represents a vibrant BMX community defying expectations. Designed by riders and crafted in Portugal with premium Spanish synthetic suede, it delivers everything you'd expect from a high-performance European BMX shoe. But this shoe means more than a list of features. SOFIA stands for what BMX culture is beyond riding: pushing forward, connecting with like-minded people, and expressing one's own creativity. On and off the bike. SOFIA is a commitment to BMX culture.

What riders say

Honestly the best shoe I’ve ridden since a long time! Didn’t even walk in them or anything. Felt so dialed right away. Also I went downhill a lot and braking on the back tire didn’t hurt them at all! Pretty hyped on that product! Good work brother.

I think the shoes are super good, have good grip, and absorb a lot of impact from the ground. And they hold up well!

I’ve had my pair of the Skilldash Sofia’s for 6 months now and can honestly say they’re my favourite riding shoe I’ve tried so far out of my 10+ years of riding. There is one little scuff mark on the sole where I break but it’s hardly even worn down and I’ve worn them pretty much everyday since having them! As well as some heavy riding use I’ve worn them in muddy fields, in the rain, a little bit in the snow and they just keep going! Also worth mentioning every other shoe I get has to have new insoles put it to prevent heel bruise but the Sofia’s come with a good enough insole that there is no need to change them out for expensive replacements! Highly recommend these for any rider out there that is looking to escape the chains of the big brands.
