Them 909 Clarks - Blue Inline Skates

The Clarks brand is a well known endeavour primarily recognized for the production of footwear. Comfortable, natural, referring to the classic style, but with a hint of nonchalance. These are the shoes of the Clarks brand, born a long time ago in Great Britain, at a time when solid shoes were an expensive commodity and not everyone could afford them.

The models of this brand have their hallmarks and it is difficult to confuse them with something else — light shoes with a thin sole have remained a footwear icon since their debut. Currently, Clarks products are a guarantee of comfort and high quality, and interesting models, both the latest and those that have already been hailed as classic, gaining constant popularity.

What is the connection between prestigious and recognized Clarks brand and the leading manufacturer of aggressive skates Themskates? Well, the common factor here is the mutual desire to promote rollerblading to a wider audience with a completely different approach. Both brands, known for their diligence and attention to detail, present a limited edition of Themskates 909 skates, available as an aggressive and urban variant, which accompanies the premiere of the Clarks Wallabee shoes of corresponding blue colour.

A slim, ergonomic shell with a slightly raised heel. The 909 model will be slightly longer and wider than the original shell of the 908, so if we did not fit into a specific size in the 908, there is a good chance that in the 909 it will be possible. Updated shell material. Harder and stronger to provide extra support and longer life.

Them 909 cuffs with the adjustable position option additionally help in customizing the skate to own needs (High position — more support, useful for setups with large wheels or Low position — better flex, typically for aggressive skating). The cuff also features unique Themskates buckle with a reduced weight and an engraved logo — a cosmetic, but very stylish accent.

Improved version of the soulplate 3.0. The width of the soulplate in the heel area has been significantly increased, which will be of great help to beginner skaters. In addition, the so-called “Bridge Hardware” has been introduced in the soulplate mount, thanks to which we can easily unscrew / replace them if necessary.

A successive update is also the fourth version (V4) of Themskates liner. The heel position has been shifted a bit “back” for greater stiffness. Wider tongue with more padding for shell filling and even more comfort. Additional reinforcement in the cuff area and a neoprene, stretchable toe finish.

To complete the setup Themskates 909 skates are offered with Street frames, designed by Kyle Sola. Frames made of injection-molded nylon filled with glass fibre. Shallow and small groove are great for both flat and anti-rocker setups. Screws with an asymmetric “head” where tightening requires only one Alan key. The maximum wheel size in the flat setting is 58 mm, but thanks to the special sole cut-outs, the anti-rocker setting can fit outer wheel sizes up to 60 mm.

Themskates 58 mm wheels of universal 90a hardness can be recommended for any type of surface — good grip on smooth, concrete skateparks and a longer life during more rough street skating.
