In January of 2005 Globe launched its new d30 technology to the skateboarding world. This, according to Globe, is intelligent molecules which constantly adjust to the skaters needs. During regular walking this technology gives the shoe a soft cushioned feel. But upon hard fast impact the molecules quickly jump together to form a protective barrier between the skaters feet and the ground or board. Be sure to check out our great selection of Globe shoes.
