Love these shoes I ride my bike all day and do sealifts and squats in these shoes.
Perfect amount of puff, perfect amount of board feel, durable construction and they look amazing. etnies hit it out of the park with this one. This will be my new go to shoe
Needs breaking in to skate, but sizing is right and quality is high.
I have been purchasing this model show since I noticed it being offered, over five years now.
The supportiveness and durability have improved over time.
The newer STI insoles are definitely better than the previous insert.
I wear these to work and also as a casual shoe.
Despite the improved insole, this pair noticeably has less comfort sooner than the previous pair under the same circumstances.
That being said, I can install a pair of arch supports for better comfort and support, and I know the shoes can last easily 6 months of constant abuse.
I am definitely purchasing an additional pair to keep nice for casual as opposed to using just one pair at a time.
Thank you.
My only suggestion is to make the inside heel material more resilient as it tends to wear out long before the external structure of the shoe shows extreme wear.
Sincerely,
Nathan Moreno
