Village PM

Village PM offers a new vision of what high-performance skateboarding shoes can be, both in terms of feel and appearance. The collection is based around two models, the 1PM and 1.30PM, both of which bring to skateboarding the comfort and contemporary aesthetics usually associated with high-performance outdoor shoes.

Afternoons that last a lifetime

A Wednesday afternoon spent skateboarding with your mates. In your hometown or elsewhere. That was the first thing co-founders Basile and Bram agreed on when they started thinking about what they wanted Village PM to be like. The kind of afternoon where you're so caught up in what you're doing that it takes a while to realise you've gone somewhere you've never been before.

At EMPR [ Empire ], we are particularly proud to have supported the Village PM project from day one. You only need to meet Basile and Bram to understand why we love this brand so much and what it stands for: simplicity, authenticity and always striving to move things forward. Of course, the products are divisive; you either love them or you hate them. But one thing is certain: they never leave you indifferent. And that in itself is a victory. Walk into a shop that sells Village PM, try on a pair and you'll be surprised to find yourself saying, "Actually, they're not bad!"

Skateboarding has always been constantly reinventing itself. Village PM aims to bring this spirit of continuous progress back to skateboarding footwear..

"Many of our friends wear skate shoes as sports equipment these days. Something you put on before skating and take off as soon as you want to do something else. We want to make shoes that are perfect for skating and that feel good afterwards.."
