The god of thunder was one of the strongest gods. Weilding the power of Mjolnir, he brought fear and dominance with every strike. I wanted to make the same in a pair of shoes. Thor is designed for players with a high stature, and hard hitting strokes.

Innovation
- Orthotic Gel outside lining used to suppress vibrations in steps, pivots and sliding. The goal for these shoes is to improve the overall quality of an athletes knees by taking care of them without even having to think about it. Humans with a taller stature have a higher chance of knee problems over time if not tended to.
