John Geiger Expands Into Skateboarding With New Skate Shoe, “SK8-01”

John Geiger is stepping into a new footwear category with his first skate shoe, the SK8-01. Known for his athletic footwear, this shoe marks Geiger’s first design specifically made for skateboarding.

The first leaked images of the SK8-01 appear to be early factory prototypes. The photos show different colorways, test logos, and even marked-up edits directly on the shoes, suggesting Geiger is still working closely with his manufacturer on fine-tuning the details.

Some shots reveal experimental laces, outsole branding, and stitched overlays, while others show alternate logo placements and embroidery tests.

With exaggerated side logos, bold color options, and heavy laces, John Geiger appears to be merging functionality with traditional skate shoes.

While no release details have been confirmed yet, the prototype photos suggest the SK8-01 is in the development stage, likely going through multiple rounds of samples before production.
