Globe and long-time team rider Sammy Montano have come toghether for a special colourway of the Melbek, a silhouette that’s been steadily carving out a reputation for its board-ready function and clean appearance. As a rider with a sharp eye for both detail and design, Montano’s take on the Melbek draws inspiration from both skate performance and something far more personal: his beloved dog, Domino.
Constructed with a skate first mentality, the Melbek boasts a hard-wearing suede upper complemented by a breathable textile lining. Functionality is the true focus here. Recessed eyestays ensure your laces stay intact through long sessions, while a padded collar offers extra protection around the heel. Most notably, a new moulded faxing tape gives off the aesthetic of a traditional cupsole, but it is actually engineered to provide extra sidewall support.
Montano’s personal stamp is seen most clearly on the tongue and insole artwork, both of which feature illustrations of his four-legged companion, Domino. For those who follow Sammy’s skating, Domino is a familiar figure. It is a nice touch that adds sentiment to a performance-built design.
