Strike: Innovation For Big-Game Action

Strike's big game fishing shoes are engineered for, and by, offshore anglers just like you. Our saltwater fishing boots and performance angling footwear deliver better deck grip, quick-drying and breathable fabrics, durability, and all-day comfort on and off any boat deck, whether you're targeting tuna, sailfish, bonefish, or marlin. And because our team and community have lifelong experiences (and tall tales) of heading out to hook up too, we get to confidently state that our products are made by anglers, for anglers.Our technical fishing shoes undergo rigorous real-world testing by the international saltwater angling community we’re proud to be a part of. Through months of on-water feedback, design iterations, and product refinements, we created footwear options that meet the demands of the big game anglers we trust to test them

It’s this process that’s driven and inspired the development of our unique tech features, too. Our range is stacked to the gunwales with intelligent design choices, from soles to laces, from rubbers to fabrics, all there to keep you on deck and in the fight. Here’s a rundown of Strike’s technological benefits that you can find in your next order:

1. MORE TRACTION, BETTER ACTION

The optimal combination of high-grade natural and synthetic rubbers we use in our Aqua Deck Soles help to deliver superior grip on wet boat decks. And thanks to a brainwave in our design department, each sole features razor-thin, precision-cut channels that actively push water away from the sole to give you greater traction and lower slip risk. 

2. WORK WITH WATER

We designed Strike’s deck shoes, sneakers, and boat shoes to work with the ocean, not against it. Because we know first-hand that wet shoes are an inevitable part of the angling experience, the engineered channels in Strike’s advanced Aqua Sluice Gill System give water a way out of your shoe, helping to maintain slip resistance while promoting all-day comfort and performance in even the most sea-soaked conditions.

3. DRY HARD

Dusk-to-dawn saltwater trips come with a very unique set of demands. Demands that have put durability and quick-drying capabilities at the heart of our designs. This led us to SEAQUAL® YARN. This exceptional material innovation is as tough as it is responsible: constructed from 10% upcycled marine plastic and 90% post-consumer recycled polyester, this fabric is not only comfortable, hard-wearing, and fast to dry out, but it’s a reflection of our commitment to lessening our impact on the planet and oceans.

4. TREAD AHEAD

As well as avoiding virgin materials wherever we can, keeping as many environmentally damaging toxins out of our brand is paramount. After all, as anglers, we have a responsibility to care for the blue playgrounds we enjoy. This is what made Solum™ a perfect biomaterial partner for us to work with. Their 100% bio-based plant additive features in our rubber soles, replacing the harmful petrochemicals that would traditionally be found there.
