When she was 7, Rayssa Leal took the internet by storm with a kickflip in a little blue fairy costume. Today, the 14-year old superstar drops her new shoe colorway with Nike SB, proving that dreams really do come true.

The Rayssa Leal x Nike SB Verona Slip features a dappled Glacier Blue suede upper with cute cloud graphics throughout. As a nod to Rayssa’s background, the adorable fairy skateboarder image on the insole says “If you can dream it, you can make it happen” in English on one shoe and Portuguese on the other.

In a recent interview, Rayssa and Nike discussed her drive and what makes these particular shoes so special. Here’s a taste:

SB: What was the inspiration for your Verona color way?

RL: My life story. It is the first shoe with my signature, so it had to show where I came from and where it all began.

SB: Do you have a favorite part of the shoe and why?

RL: The insole because that phrase has a big meaning for me. I really believe that if you can dream, you can make it happen.

SB: How do you feel when you look back now at the clip that made you famous?

RL: It makes me really happy that it was my mom who filmed me, and even more that Tony H. shared it. Since that day, a lot has changed!

Etnies dropped “The Aurelien“, the first pro model shoe of Aurélien Giraud.

Aurélien’s pro shoe model is available in three colorways, grey/light grey, tan/white, and black/white.

These shoes have an STI Performance Level 1 insole, System Flo2 for air circulation, a hidden toe cap for longevity, elastic tongue straps for a secure fit, a rubber outsole for durability and grip, and padded tongue and collar lining for comfort.

Aurélien designed and tested the model to meet the demands of his high-impact skateboarding.

At the age of 6, Aurélien won the V7 Teenage Tour, but it was not until he won the Tampa AM in 2015 that he gained recognition from the worldwide skateboarding community. He represented France in the 2020 Summer Olympics. He joined the Etnies team last year.
