At SKILZ , we know that breaking isn’t just about what you do on the dance floor – it’s a lifestyle, a state of mind and a way to express who you are, wherever you go. That’s why we’ve designed clothing that’s not only functional for dance, but also stylish and versatile to wear beyond the battle. Our innovative RILLS TECH (Real Skills Technology) doesn’t just look good; it’s there to support you during intense moments of training and performance, while seamlessly integrating with our aesthetic.
Have you ever seen an early Bronx b-boy or b-girl spinning on concrete in pads? Neither have we! Let’s stay stylish, stay safe, and keep essential pads and protection discreetly out of sight. With SKILZ , you get support where it counts – without compromising style or freedom of movement.
KNEE RILLS - Hidden Knee Protection
Protect your knees without anyone noticing. SKILZ pants feature invisible inner pockets for optional protection: simply insert our specially designed knee pads that mold to the shape of your knees, perfect for intense workouts. Ready for the after-party? Remove the pads or leave them in – no one will know, but you will feel the difference.
HEAD RILLS - Invisible Head Protection
Need extra protection for your head spins, freezes or slides? All our hoods feature hidden pockets for head padding – there when you need it, and out of sight at all times. Simply insert the SKILZ designed pad, and when you’re not using it, the pocket doubles as a discreet storage space, adding an extra touch of SKILZ creativity.
LACES RILLS - Integrated Twine Belt
SKILZ pants feature integrated laces as an alternative to traditional belts – no need for a belt. Inspired by the tradition of b-boys and b-girls using laces to prevent injuries. We’ve also added loops to keep the laces in place, as well as a larger loop at the front to tuck the knot through, preventing it from swinging for a clean look whether you’re battling or lounging.
SLIDING RILLS - Burn Resistant Panels
For those who love to slide, SKILZ uses burn-resistant material—similar to the fabric in spinning caps—on select pants and hoodies. These panels protect you and your gear, ensuring smooth slides and a longer lifespan for your favorite pieces.
HAND RILLS - Thumb Loops for Slides and Comfort
SKILZ tops feature thumb loops, keeping the sleeves in place and helping you spin longer and easier – perfect for tricks like 99s and 2000s. Or, just tuck your thumbs in for extra warmth on late-night jams. A small detail that makes a big difference.
PIPING RILLS - A Style that Accompanies your Movements
Your moves deserve to stand out. SKILZ added unique piping and panels to accentuate your flow, from top rocks to power moves. Designed to boost the impact of every move, it’s a style that moves with you.
ANTI-DROP RILLS - Top and Bottom Fasteners
SKILZ tops feature a unique internal clip that attaches to your pants, keeping your top in place and out of your face during headstands or flips. This innovative feature was designed with b-boys and b-girls in mind, keeping you in control no matter the move.
Pads specially designed for your protection
Our pads are designed to provide optimal protection for the head and knees, two essential areas for dancers. Thanks to their ergonomic design, they adapt perfectly to your movements, while remaining discreet and lightweight. Their honeycomb-shaped structure allows for even distribution of shocks, ensuring both comfort and safety.
Made from durable and flexible materials, these pads provide exceptional durability and ideal flexibility to support your most demanding performances. They are designed to protect without limiting your movements, whether in battles, intensive training or simply in your creative explorations.
