/SUPPLY CHAIN

 

Flaneurz is committed to offering you high-quality detachable roller skates that combine performance and style. Our collaborations with shoe brands and other distributors ensure a diverse and trendy range. However, we can't control the dynamics of supply and demand: the most popular models are also the most expensive to source.

At the same time, we need to anticipate stock levels of all the materials required to manufacture the Flaneurz system. If we group together the parts for the shoe and those for the rolling part, we have a total of 30 parts designed and machined in France, all of which are made in France. 

Patented in 2015, it consists of a female part housed in the sole of your shoes and a male part integrated into the chassis. Together, they form the Flaneurz innovation that enables you to go from walking to skating in a matter of seconds.A pair of Flaneurz skates requires many components. High-quality materials such as the chassis, trucks, cushions, wheels and bearings, stops, etc. ensure the durability, performance and longevity of your Flaneurz skates.

We assemble all the components we've chosen for their technicality and quality, build the chassis and transform the soles of your shoes. It takes six machines, 20 major steps and two hours of meticulous work to produce a pair of Flaneurz detachable roller skates. Each pair is unique. Our team of engineers has worked long and hard to develop these tools and infrastructure, and is constantly improving production quality. The maintenance and supply of all our tools generate costs and have an impact on the price of our products.
