Product Details
The Spanky Hi takes everything skaters love about Kevin “Spanky” Long’s low-top and raises the collar for more support, more protection, and a fresh silhouette. It’s a true high-top skate shoe, offering extra padding around the ankle for stability on landings and defense against board hits, while still maintaining the clean, slim profile Spanky is known for.

High Collar, Same Skate-Ready Feel

Though the Spanky Hi features a taller upper, the underfoot construction stays true to the original: cupsole with a pour-in G6 polyurethane midsole for responsive cushioning and reliable impact absorption. A full-length EVA layer works alongside the G6 foam, offering a consistent feel from heel to toe – no stiff toe box, no dead zones, just smooth boardfeel and comfort.

Reinforced to Handle the Height

Knowing that a high-top adds more strain to seams and panels, Emerica built the Spanky Hi with double-stitched reinforcement throughout, ensuring it stands up to repeated skate sessions. The materials are often suede or a rugged suede/canvas blend, and the construction focuses on durability without bulk, keeping the shoe light and responsive despite the added height.

Slimmed-Down Look, Locked-In Fit

The Spanky Hi might rise above the ankle, but it’s far from puffy. The streamlined silhouette reflects Spanky’s preference for understated design, with tongue stabilizer straps inside to keep your foot secure and the tongue in place – essential for a snug fit in a high-top model.

Retro Look, Modern Tech

With its simple lines and minimal branding, the Spanky Hi echoes 90s skate shoes in style, but hides modern skate tech inside. It’s built for those who like the flick and board control of the Spanky G6 but want a little more confidence when jumping into bigger tricks or taking hits around the ankle.

The Spanky Hi is the natural extension of Spanky’s signature line – elevated in cut, not compromised in performance. It’s a stylish, supportive option for skaters who want the look and feel of a classic, with a little extra coverage where it counts.

Sparky lang

Smith has also claimed that the title Close To Me came from the idea that the song was being sung as the protagonist was getting into bed at the end of a bad day: “I never thought tonight could ever be this close to me.”

I love these shoes

I've recently returned to skating after a year long hiatus and was in the market for new shoes. These ones caught my eye with the slim silhouette while having the support of a cupsole and they did not disappoint! Fit is true to size and feels like they were custom made for my feet. Hands down one of the best shoe models I've had in my 20 years of skating. Definitely going to pick up another pair or two. I hope they make some more colorways, maybe a black/gum sole?
