Globe Gillette Skate Shoe - Designed from the ground up by Austin Gillette, the Globe Gillette is everything he wanted in a skate shoe. Bringing together style and comfort along with durability the Glove Gillette features Globe’s flex resin overlay wrapping the lower part of the shoe for extra protection, their heritage-inspired tri-oval ollie protection, and a semi-transparent ventilation panel on the medial side of the shoe.
About Globe Brand: Beginning in the mid 1980s with the design, production and distribution of third party brands in Australia with Hardcore Enterprises, Melbourne’s Hill brothers: Stephen, Peter and Matt, created a global boardsports brand of their own, first with shoes for skaters and surfers in the mid 1990s and then with apparel and hardgoods for the broader market.
Today, the same crew of skaters, surfers and snowboarders that started the Globe brand has grown to an international network of designers and riders that are united by boardsports, street culture, media, design and film.
