Thank you for the best of times! 15 epic years - and we have been through a lot. It’s been an amazing run! We created something that won’t be forgotten, but given that our business structure has not worked for some time, we have mutually agreed to close our doors.

To the supporters, my family and my friends, from the bottom of my heart, thank you! Thank you for following the brand. I am so fortunate to have been able to share the last 15 years with you all. It’s truely been a blessing for me to have had you all be a part of it.

R.I.P Valo. To be continued. - Jon Julio.

Although the ISPO has become a lot smaller in the last years, it’s still the biggest sports trade fair in the world. Thus all the companies present their latest products. Besides the new stuff that is shown, we had the chance to take a glimpse at the new USD, Deshi and Xsjado stuff and all I can say is, they look sick. Anyway, back to the present, here you can check out the products that will be released in the near future.

It’s been a while since you heard news from Xsjado. The rumors of the brand quitting business were in the streets for quite some time but no official statement was made until now.

The Xsjado Farewell is your last chance to grab a piece of skating history as this is our last skate to be released.

We want to thank all the individuals, designers, skaters, photographers and videographers, distributors and dealers who made Xsjado possible, who worked hard and helped us with their talent and expertise, specially during the development of the Xjsado 2.0 model and who kept the brand alive, staying by our side during these past hard years of skating recession. Thank you all for your support.

But look forward with hope because every end is a new beginning.
