Why Capoeiristas Around the World Love Rainha Shoes

Check out what makes these Brazilian shoes so special

If you’ve been to a capoeira event anywhere in the world, you’ve probably seen them: Rainha VL2500 shoes have been a favorite among capoeiristas for decades. Originally designed in Brazil as an indoor volleyball shoe, their lightweight construction, flexible canvas upper and grippy rubber sole made them the perfect choice for capoeira long before “capoeira shoes” even existed. 

Capoeira demands quick direction changes, balance, spinning, jumping and smooth footwork.

That’s exactly where Rainhas shine.

✔ Lightweight and comfortable

✔ Flexible enough for every movement

✔ Excellent grip without feeling “sticky”

✔ Breathable canvas upper

✔ Durable rubber sole

Whether you’re training for your first class or playing in rodas every weekend, Rainhas simply feel right.
