Kids Roller Skates

Student Project

November 2019

The Sneak Skates are an answer to the lack of affordable yet safe and durable roller skates available for children. Through employing a high-top sneaker rather than a skate boot, children are granted enough ankle support for recreational skating while circumventing the break-in process and prohibitive price of other skates.

Inspiration

The sneak skates drew form inspiration from Vans Sk8-hi shoes as well as the cartoon character Rainbow Brite. The colorways of the shoes are drawn from '70s and '80s ski wear.

I utilized surfacing in SOLIDWORKS to 3D model the skates and once complete I rendered them in Keyshot
