K2 Designer series original design by German Designer Jette Joop
Jette's philosophy is the crossover of partnerships:
"Exceptional design considers needs and sets new aesthetic standards. To reach this goal, you have to find new ways. Ways with crossings. At these crossings you meet partners that have the same high expectations and standards regarding design and fashion. "Skating is a fabulous way to get around - although I'm not a great skater" says Jette Joop. "In creating these skates I wanted to make a fashioon statement. Trendy style combined with high technology. I wanted everybody to skate with style!" - Jette Joop
