ERA – Infused tradition and UniQ technologies starting with our exclusive “Dream-Last” Barefoot technology and UniQ Flex-Fit Tech combined with traditional machine lasting. UniQ’s ‘NEW ERA’ is born.

• • Robust Responsive Outsole: One piece outsole made of composite material giving ERA a rigid foundation with robust response and energy return. One piece outsole significantly reduces the weight of the boot.
  • The composite outsole is designed and manufactured specifically for UniQ Barefoot-Last, giving it an ergonomic fit. By using composite materials, there is no need for a midsole, thus reducing the weight significantly.
  • UniQ footbeds also designed and manufactured specifically for UniQ Barefoot-Last that hug and support the natural contours of the foot. By contrast, old school quad boots are typically made with a midsole that increases the weight, creates a very stiff instep resulting in pain, numbness, cramping and reduces overall performance.
  • Premium microfiber uppers give the boot a soft feel and tough skin that doesn’t stretch -forms to your foot and stays supple.
  • Premium super-soft microfiber lining that stays soft under most conditions, comfortably holds your foot in place.
  • EGO Wheels by Piper: Size 62X44, Hardness 95A, utility wheel made of high-performance, high rebound urethane. Great for all indoor surfaces (wood, cement, tile, etc.). Use: jam, shuffle, derby, speed, fitness and recreation.
  • UniQ Bearings: ABEC 7 – Precision bearings, 8mm, light oil, low maintenance.
  • UniQ Plate: All new high-performance plate system incorporates our proven geometry that optimizes speed, maneuverability and stability with simplicity. Stripped down truck system, integrated toe-stop insert, less parts, lightweight, stronger, more dependable. Whether you are speed, park, jam, rhythm, dance, derby or a hard core all-skate junky, you need a plate that delivers the perfect balance of strength, stiffness, weight and agility.
• • Low profile
  • 10-degree truck action
  • UniQ Composite: Molded, toe stop insert
  • Aluminum trucks
  • Steel 8MM axles
  • High rebound urethane cast bushings,
  • Steel kingpins
  • UniQ nylon – DuPont, reinforced composite base plate (LGF)

  Overcoming Challenges of Metal-to-Plastic

  UniQ composite plate: Plastics elongation and toughness is an advantage over metal that enables them to absorb higher impact stresses and resist permanent deformation or denting at impact locations. Elongation and toughness also gives plastics excellent cyclical fatigue endurance over metals.

  LGF = Long Glass Fiber “Boosting Performance without Breaking the Bank”
  Among the plastic compounds are fiber-reinforced plastics, these come in two main variants with either short fiber reinforcement made with chopped fiber or long fiber reinforcement made from continuous fiber. Fiber reinforcement can provide a tremendous amount of structural integrity and raise the tensile strength of the entry-level engineering polymer nylon 6/6 (polyamide 6/6) six times from 8,000 psi (55 MPa) up to 48,000 psi (331 MPa). This puts plastic strength in the same performance realm as metals like die-cast magnesium and aluminum. Of the two types of fiber-reinforced plastics, short fiber filled compounds are best at providing low to moderate levels of performance enhancement while long fiber-reinforced composites are better at providing moderate to high levels of performance making them well suited for most metal replacement situations.
