Dan Mancina is, first and foremost, a skateboarder. A skateboarder who happens to be visually impaired, though this was not always the case. Dan grew up skateboarding quite proficiently before being diagnosed with RP at age thirteen on the heels of a routine eye exam. Managing the loss of his sight on all levels has been no easy task, though Dan has taken it in strides, flipping a negative into a positive for himself and so many others.

Dan has earned his Master's degree in Vision Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT) and founded a 501c3 non-profit called Keep Pushing Inc., which teaches adaptive life skills to those dealing with vision loss and acts as an entry point to adaptive skateboarding for visually impaired (VI) skateboarders. In all these pursuits, Dan has proven that impossible is nothing.

As a visually impaired skateboarder, a shoe's fit, feel, and function are essential to Dan Mancina. With a durable yet luxe upper constructed of premium suede and oiled nubuck, the material mix and attention to detail on his signature Busenitz are noticeable to the touch. The side profile features a red and white reflective three-stripe execution inspired by his cane, and the shoe’s iconic tongue is finished with Dan’s name in braille lettering across the top.

Inspired by the legendary Copa Mundial, the Busenitz was designed to be a responsive shoe that offers a locked-in fit and optimal feel for board control. Just like Dennis himself, the Busenitz's legacy keeps going strong with a premium suede upper, flexible cupsole, moulded Adiprene sockliner and Geofit collar. The result is a modern staple for skateboarding, inspired by the archives.

Regular fit. Lace closure. Suede upper. Geofit padded collar. Adiprene sockliner. Rubber cupsole.
