The Village PM 1.30PM Olive sits on sun-bleached concrete. Someone has left a half-finished coffee nearby. It's been there long enough to become municipal property.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
EXT. BACK STREET — LATE AFTERNOON
The Village PM 1.30PM Olive is a canvas skateboard shoe made for a close, precise fit and quick break-in. The olive canvas keeps things restrained. The construction underneath is considerably more deliberate.
Village PM’s Rubber Glove Technology uses soft, sticky natural rubber, manually wrapped around the foot to maintain a close fit. The construction is neither vulcanized nor a cupsole. Its rubber is designed to break in quickly, retain a consistent flick, and last through repeated sessions.
The shoe follows the foot’s natural asymmetrical shape, wrapping closely around the toes. Extended, slightly asymmetrical lacing gives you more control over the fit, and a rubber rand covers the forefoot where repeated flicks tend to conduct their business.
A drop-in EVA midsole is thicker through the heel for impact protection, then gradually slims down from the midfoot forward to preserve board feel. Underneath, a durable rubber outsole is made to break in without an extended courtship.
Fit runs mostly true to size, with a closer feel on wider feet. Recommend going up half a size when in doubt.
