Spanky’s first Emerica shoe reborn – classic style remastered with pour-in G6 cushioning
The KSL G6 by Kevin “Spanky” Long is a tribute to Emerica’s iconic past, blending the classic silhouette of Spanky’s first pro model with the cutting-edge skate tech of today. Originally released in 2005, the KSL has been updated with modern performance features, resulting in a shoe that stays true to its roots while offering improved comfort, durability, and control.
A Tribute to the Classic:
The KSL G6 retains the familiar low-cut collar, suede panels, and clean lines of the original, combined with Spanky’s signature flair. It’s a shoe that feels nostalgic but brings new-school tech to the table for superior performance.
Impact Protection and Cushioning:
Fitted with pour-in G6 polyurethane midsole technology, the KSL G6 offers the impact protection and cushioning that the 2005 version could only dream of. Whether you’re landing big gaps or grinding ledges, this shoe ensures your feet stay fresh and supported throughout the session.
Durability for the Long Haul:
The updated cupsole construction is reinforced with high-density rubber heel drag pods, ensuring the shoe can withstand extensive powerslides and wear without losing grip. Emerica’s Triangle Tread pattern delivers consistent traction, whether you’re on smooth pavement or rough terrain.
Support and Comfort:
Inside, the perforated EVA insole with arch support ensures long-lasting comfort and stability, while the refined heel area gives you a snug fit for improved support. The thin tongue and collar padding deliver that comfortable, broken-in feel right out of the box, with no unnecessary bulk.
