FLANEURZ VS SLADES: TWO WAYS TO EXPERIENCE DETACHABLE ROLLER SKATES

FLANEURZ VS SLADES: TWO WAYS TO EXPERIENCE DETACHABLE ROLLER SKATES

The detachable roller skates have profoundly transformed the way of skating in the city.

Being able to walk, skate, and then walk again with a single pair has paved the way for a new form of mobility, freer and more intuitive.

In this universe, Flaneurz and Slades embody two complementary approaches to the same vision:

reinvent urban gliding without compromising on style, comfort, and performance.

But then, what is the difference between Flaneurz and Slades?

And above all, how can you know which solution best suits your needs?

/A COMMON TECHNOLOGY: THE DETACHABLE ROLLER SKATES

Flaneurz is the originator of the detachable roller concept.

The principle is simple: a rolling part attaches under the shoe using a clipping and unclipping system, allowing for an instant switch from walking mode to roller mode.

This technology is now at the heart of both brands:

Flaneurz, with its customizable roller shoes,

Slades, with sneakers designed from the outset for roller skating.

In both cases, the objective is the same:

to offer a smooth, practical, and urban life-adapted experience.

/FLANEURZ: TRANSFORM YOUR SHOES INTO ROLLERBLADES

Flaneurz is aimed at those who want to roller skate with the shoes they already love.

The concept is based on personalization and the freedom of choice.

With Flaneurz, you can:

choose from the sneackers models already available on the Flaneurz site or transform your own shoes. 

choose your level of practice with the Iconic or Premium rolling parts,

maintain the style and comfort of your shoes on a daily basis.

Flaneurz is the meeting point between fashion and mobility.

Each pair becomes unique, reflecting the person who wears it.

/SLADES: THE SNEAKER DESIGNED FOR ROLLER

Slades is a brand developed by Flaneurz with a different approach.

Here, the sneaker is not suitable for roller skating: it is designed for roller skating from the start.

The Slades shoes include:

a sole designed to accommodate the detachable system,

a design optimized for walking and sliding,

a balanced structure for immediate handling.

The Slades rolling parts are compatible with all shoes equipped with the Flaneurz system, but they are primarily designed to provide a simple, coherent, and ready-to-use solution.

Slades offers a direct, accessible, and smooth experience, without compromising on style.

/A COMMON VISION OF THE MOVEMENT
