Globe Dover II Shoe | Dark Brown/Wasted Talent
Aussie Chelsea boot attitude, built properly for skating.
The Globe Dover II in Dark Brown/Wasted Talent takes the classic Aussie Chelsea boot and rebuilds it for the board. It's a vulcanised high-top slip-on with stretch elastic gore panels, so it pulls on in a second and locks around your ankle without laces to snap or come undone mid-session.
Underfoot, Globe's Shockbed™ insole soaks up heavy landings and the Super-V™ outsole grips the board with the thin, flexible feel vulc fans want. It sits an inch taller than the original Dover with a heel pod for a more secure fit. Wear it to the park, to work and out on the weekend. Browse the full range of skate shoes or everything Globe.

About Globe
Globe started in Melbourne in 1985 when brothers Peter, Matt and Stephen Hill began bringing skate brands to Australian riders, then grew into a skate brand in its own right with a global following. Its footwear balances real skate performance with everyday wearability, built on skate-specific tech like Shockbed™ impact insoles and Super-V™ and S-Trac™ grip patterns, and backed by a team that has included Rodney Mullen, Mark Appleyard and Christian Maalouf.
FAQs
Is the Dover II good for skateboarding?
Yes. It's a vulcanised skate shoe with a Shockbed™ insole for impact and a Super-V™ outsole for grip and board feel. The elastic gore means no laces to rip on griptape.
How should the Globe Dover II fit?
The Dover II uses US men's sizing. Slip-ons should feel snug when new because there are no laces to tighten, and the leather relaxes with wear. If you're between sizes, ask our team in-store or by chat before you order.
How do I look after leather skate shoes?
Brush off dirt after skating, wipe the leather with a damp cloth and let them air-dry away from direct heat. A leather conditioner every so often keeps the upper supple and helps it last.

Skate Shoes Size Guide
How To Measure Your Feet
Stand on a piece of paper wearing your skate socks. Trace around your foot, then measure:
Length: Heel to longest toe (in cm)
Width: Widest part of the foot
Always measure both feet — use the bigger measurement if they’re different. Use the CM (Mondopoint) column on any chart below for the most accurate fit.
How Should Skate Shoes Fit?
Snug but not crushing — toes should lightly brush the front. No major heel lift when walking or flicking. Foot held securely for maximum board feel and control, with minimal extra space to avoid slipping inside the shoe. Skate shoes break in and soften slightly after a few sessions, so a snug fit out of the box is normal.
Fit & Sizing
Sizing below is by brand, not by model — within a brand, our skate shoes share one last, so the same chart applies across the range unless a note says otherwise. Sizing runs vary between brands, so check the right chart for what you’re buying rather than assuming your usual size carries over.
