Best skate-shoes I've skated in. Grip is awesome. Cushioning ist awesome you can jump a whole stair-set without hurting your feet in any wise.

Great Etnies

Really comfy and hard wearing. Look great!

Nice look and super durable

When buying skate shoes I find it important that the shoes fit well without any pressure points or too much space to move my foot in. Also, durability is something I look for. As these shoes are made from suede they are pretty strong against the grip tape and with an extra rubber toe cap, it takes even longer to burn through. I bought the shoes in July and I'm still (28 December) using them as the grip didn't go through yet. I only skate with these shoes and try to skate at least twice a week. Where Nike or Adidas is too narrow for my foot, these Etnies work perfectly! I bought EU size 43 (I wear Vans Old Skool in size 42.5).The shoe is durable, has a nice fit, and is also pretty warm in winter. What I like about the brand Etnies is that for every sold pair they ... MoreWhen buying skate shoes I find it important that the shoes fit well without any pressure points or too much space to move my foot in.

What I like about the brand Etnies is that for every sold pair they plant a tree in collaboration with 'Trees for the Future.I did have to get used to the amount of padding that is in the shoe as I am used to wearing Vans Old Skool. This happened fast and found that the padding gives me more stability in the shoe. The durable Michelin rubber sole has a lot of grip on the board and the inside cushioning feels super comfortable when landing tricks. All in all, nothing to complain about! I really like the shoes and will buy myself another pair once my current ones are done. For the wide-footed skaters that are looking for a durable shoe, this could be your winning pair. if you're not used to thickly padded shoes, try playing with the laces when fitting. this could already make the shoe a lot more comfortable!

Nice shoe

This is a great looking shoe. Sadly the toe box was a bit small for me.Not recommended for people with a wide foot.

On of the best all round skate shoe!

I usually skate Nike sb, Etnies was a bit of an experiment for me. Im skating street mostly and the feeling of Etnies shoes has been quite refreshing. I skate a size 8.38 and 149 trucks with 53 classic hard wheels.New shoes always can feel a bit off, especially when you are used to one brand in particular and you make the switch. In this case it felt like an improvement, the shoes performed well even on the first day which is strange for me. I normally need a couple days to get used to it as my foot positioning can vary with different shoes. The Etnies Marana felt very comfortable from the start, enough cushioning without feeling too big and the grip was really good as most of the shoe is suede material. The outsole is really living up to the hype and it is the ... MoreI usually skate Nike sb, Etnies was a bit of an experiment for me.

The outsole is really living up to the hype and it is the thing that lasted the longest in the shoe. On that point, it is a very durable shoe, you can easily do 3-4 weeks of very intense skating and the shoe will hold up!In conclusion, this product is a very good choice for any type of skater and It will last more than your average skate shoe thanks to its great outsole. Looks wise, the Marana is a very good looking shoe, it may not seem in the pictures but once you put them on they do look great!I would definitely buy again. It has for sure been my most durable and long lasting skate shoe.
