Checking Out The Airwalk Shoes Web Site
Airwalk shoes market themselves as young and edgy. They claim to be for skateboarders and snowboarders (they also sell boots), but are also very stylish and can make a statement for those interested more in mainstream fashion. They are functional as well as stylish, however, and the company prides itself in its extreme pro athletes and interactive Web site (www.airwalk.com) that helps build a sense of community. The Web site for Airwalk shoes is done in Flash, and features a great deal of cool effects. Because it is in Flash, transitions from one scene to the next are rather seamless and have the feel of an extreme sport in and of itself. There is a gallery of pictures that show a behind the scenes look at putting together the latest campaign, as well as a separate gallery that has all of the ads. Additionally, there are pro athlete biographical sketches and lists of their events and tours. It is also possible for the interested public to submit photos in the “Muse” section. Users can sign up for email updates and request info on how to actually purchase the shoes. The shoes are sold in shoe stores around
