THE FUTURE

of athletic footwear

We're building minimalist shoes for athletes who want to move naturally without compromising on performance. With a wider toe box, zero drop, flexible sole, and strategic cushioning, you won't sacrifice foot health to play the sports you love.

The Movement

We left our tech careers, invested our savings, applied for and received grants, and built a world-class team. After over a year of development and testing, the fully realized prototype is ready for production, and we've raised the funds needed to do it!

We're Hitting The Road

Imagine 33,000 square feet dedicated entirely to people who actually care about foot health and natural movement. We wouldn't miss it for the world. We've been practically living in the lab getting these prototypes ready to show off, and it's finally time to pack the bags.

With official production kicking off this week, we’re flashing back to the day our final wear-test prototypes landed. 📦👟 Straight from the van to the courts. We've spent months running these final Atomic Court samples (prototype #7!) into the ground to perfectly dial in the grip, lockdown, and comfort before approving them for the line. They are 🔥! Track might say "I get up so high," but as you can see, my old man game is strictly below the rim. 😅 Thankfully we're testing the shoes and not my hops. Now that they are officially in production, which colorway are you grabbing: Onyx Ecto, Arctic Flame, or Classic Court? 🤚 #PinesFootwear #AtomicCourt #barefootshoes #WearTesting
A full day in the studio with @zackbowen capturing some final details on the Atomic Court. 👟🔥 From early morning setups to local coffee runs @tandemcoffeeroasters and crisp product shots, we’re checking every box to make sure these hit different. Pines Footwear Atomic Court is dropping soon. Get ready. Drop a 🔥 if you’re ready for the release! #PinesFootwear #AtomicCourt #BehindTheScenes #ProductPhotography #barefootshoes
"It took me like five seconds." 😉 Just a casual setup involving fishing line, skewers, and perfect tension to bring the vision to life. Incredible day shooting the Atomic Court 01 with Zack Bowen in Portland. Stay tuned—more to come! 💯 #PinesFootwear #StudioLife #ProductPhotography #behindthescenes #portlandme
When we set out to build the ultimate barefoot court shoe, we knew we needed a visionary. That’s why we partnered with world-renowned designer @d2lo 👟💥 We brought Michael on board to crack the design code. Why? Because his resume speaks for itself: Proven Elite Pedigree: He has a legendary track record at brands like Nike and Converse designing high-performance gear tested on NBA courts, the Olympic world stage, and in championship boxing rings. Uncompromising Performance: He knows exactly how to design a shoe that hits the most rigorous athletic targets without cutting corners. Iconic Heritage Aesthetic: He flawlessly blends modern performance tech with the classic lines that have defined court shoes for generations. The challenge was massive: make the highest-performing shoe possible, but make it an iconic silhouette you actually want to wear every single day. He delivered. Meet The Atomic Court. Elite performance meets iconic looks. Coming soon. 👀🔥 Are you ready to step up your game?
