Village PM Skate Shoes aren’t your typical skate footwear; they’re the result of blending elite outdoor shoe tech with a new twist on skate shoes, creating a range that stands out for durability, comfort, and progressive style.

Village PM Skate Shoes were created by Basile Lapray, Bram De Cleen, and Julien Traverse, who share a passion for footwear innovation and skate culture. The brand sets out to shake up expectations of what performance skate shoes can be, drawing on years working with the outdoor industry to inject comfort and technical details into every pair.

The first two silhouettes, the 1PM and 1.30PM, combine climbing shoe features with classic skate function. Both styles of Village PM Skate Shoes focus on comfort, precision fit, and board feel, so they’re right at home whether you're at the park, hitting the street, or chilling with mates well after your session. Check out out comparison of the two styles here.

Meet the Range: Village PM 1PM and 1.30PM Shoes

The Village PM skate shoes range starts with two core models, the 1PM and the 1.30PM. Both are built on the principle “form follows function,” taking everything skaters love in high-performance outdoor shoes and melding that with what the best skate footwear should deliver. 

• Village PM 1PM:

  
  
  This flagship style is instantly recognisable thanks to its climbing-inspired wrap rubber rand and asymmetrical toebox, ideal for a grippy and responsive flick. The shoe’s fit is engineered for stability and comfort, and the durable toe cap and upper delivers better life over repeated kickflips and street sessions. Priced around £100, available in sizes from 4 all the way up to 12, it’s a shoe that doesn’t compromise. The Village 1PM wont appeal to everyone, but thats the point.
  

• Village PM 1.30PM:

The Village 1.30PM model takes the tech of climbing shoes and blends it into a more flexible, low-profile silhouette. You get the same grippy, long-lasting rubber, but with a subtle look that works anywhere. Available at around £80, it’s the best value in the Village PM Skate Shoes range, and it breaks in has surprisingly impressive durability and impact protection, considering it's their slimmer shoe.

Both shoes are offered in classic colours, with occasional seasonal releases and special editions in leather and seasonal shades.

Village PM skate shoes are functional for both skateboarding and Paris Fashion shows, with special editions that push the limits of head-turning aesthetics in skate shoes. Shiny leathers and sleek designs make them stand out from other trainers, allowing you to style your skate shoes with a classier dress code if you wish.

Although they made snazzy-looking creps, they ensure that aesthetics never get prioritised over performance and durability, ensuring you get a cool-looking shoe that also skates at a top level.

Whether paired with neutral fits or bold streetwear, the purple Village PM shoes deliver a unique twist on classic skate styling, perfect for skaters who don’t want to blend in.

The hallmark of Village PM skate shoes is a progressive, skate-focused fit with inspiration from climbing shoes: wraparound rubber, asymmetrical toe boxes, and super grippy soles built for high abrasion and consistent flicks.

They’re engineered to break in quickly, but last longer than your average skate shoe without losing structure, so skaters don’t have to trade comfort for durability. 

Both the 1PM and 1.30PM have been adopted well by skateboarders worldwide, and their positive reputation for board feel and all-day wear is spreading rapidly.

Village PM skate shoes have also become popular for wearing off-board, thanks to the blend of everyday comfort and clean urban style. Many skaters choose Village PM because the comfort lasts from the first trick to the post-skate hangout.

For exclusive drops and the widest selection, the Village PM shoes website is the first stop. There, you’ll find the full range, including new releases and limited editions, detailed sizing guides, and access to direct stockist links for Europe and the UK, including us at The Vines 🙂.

Village PM skate shoes are setting a new standard for what’s possible in skate footwear. Merging outdoor shoe tech, progressive styling, and proven durability, the 1PM and 1.30PM shoes are changing how skaters think about comfort and performance.

Whether picking up Village PM shoes from your local skate shop, browsing the Village PM shoes website for exclusive drops, or lacing up a pair of Village PM skate shoes for the first time, skaters can expect something truly different, built for real sessions and real life.
