Skechers SKX_2 Elite SG Sunset Pack rugby shoes
Skechers SKX_2 Elite SG rugby shoes are designed for players seeking speed and reactivity on wet terrain. Lace-up Performance FitKnit® upper combined with ultra-lightweight HYPER BURST PRO™ TPU cushioning (only 225 g), carbon-infused plate for explosive propulsion and Skechers Lock Fit® system (internal silicone grip) that locks the foot in the boot during acceleration phases and directional changes. Mixed SG configuration with interchangeable metal studs for optimal grip in mud. S.C. (Strike Control) molding positioned on the forefoot improves strike precision, while V GRIP™ technology enhances boot-ball grip during pressure passes.
Sunset Elite Pack edition: inspired by California sunsets (LA), the multicolored design transitions from flaming coral to electric blue. A strong visual signature for players who want to stand out on the biggest stages. Born in LA, this model embodies Skechers' California DNA applied to high-performance rugby.
Are these shoes suitable for synthetic surfaces?
No, the SG sole with metal studs is exclusively designed for natural wet ground. On synthetic surfaces, choose an FG or AG model.
What shoe size does the 225 g weight refer to?
The 225 g weight is generally given for size 42. Larger sizes may vary slightly.
Can all metal studs be changed?
Yes, the mixed configuration allows replacement of interchangeable metal studs according to ground conditions and wear.
Technical specifications
Care instructionsClean the synthetic and textile upper with warm water and a soft brush after each match on wet ground. Remove metal studs to eliminate mud embedded in the threads. Never machine wash: the Performance FitKnit® knit and internal silicone elements cannot withstand the drum. Dry at room temperature, never on a radiator (risk of carbon plate deformation). Regularly check the tightness of interchangeable studs to prevent loss during play. DesignSkechers has concentrated three proprietary technologies in this high-end model: HYPER BURST PRO™ cushioning (ultra-lightweight injected TPU foam that absorbs shocks without compromising reactivity), integrated carbon plate (transforms impact energy into propulsion during relaunches), and the Skechers Lock Fit® system (silicone studs distributed across the entire internal lining that lock the foot laterally and longitudinally). Performance FitKnit® knitting offers a second-skin fit without irritating seams, while S.C. molding on the forefoot channels strikes at the foot for millimeter-precise ball control. The mixed SG sole combines fixed studs (heels) and interchangeable metal studs (forefoot/midfoot): rare versatility to adapt to variations in wet ground density during the match. Finally, V GRIP™ technology (micro-alveolar texture on ball contact zones) improves grip during receptions and quick passes. BrandSkechers Performance invests in rugby and football from its California hub in Los Angeles. The brand applies its cushioning expertise (derived from running) to team sports: HYPER BURST PRO™ foam inherited from road running models, carbon plate borrowed from elite trail shoes. The Sunset Elite Pack visually translates Skechers' California DNA (Pacific sunsets, coral-to-electric-blue palette) onto a technical platform designed for major international competitions. |
