Fit true to size, a narrow toe (which is perfect for me), sturdy material, comfortable. The tongue is not fat like some of the styles, definitely made for casual wear rather than skate wear. I dig them.
Shoes were a little tight side to side. But they wore in very well and no longer feel tight.
I struggle with skate shoes bc of wide feet. But these fit well after break in.
I love my new grey cali-cut kicks! The level 1 insoles are very comfortable. This is my second pair I've bought in the last 6 months.
Thanks again Etnies.
The Marana has cured the shoe madness! I've been skating the barge ls shoes off and on for a couple years (8-10 pair). They are great skate shoes but tend to wear a bit quicker with flip tricks. I also wanted a bit more protection so I decided to try these. They are the best shoe I've ever stepped in! Very comfortable and true to size fit, seems to ve very durable as well (100 kickflips= very litte wear) i cant speak on longevity yet but i can tell they will last a long time. The only complaint I have is, the heel doesn't seat down far enough into the shoe when brand new. Kinda felt like I was walking right out if them, but, Within the first hour of skating, the problem fixed itself. I will definitely be skating these from now on!!! Thanks etnies!
