As a big footed individual (bare foot measures 12") I got out of skating as a kid in the early nineties because I couldn't find good skate shoes in my size and basketball shoes were too expensive and not built for skating. Ordered these in the largest size n crossed my fingers... Once they arrived they fit like a dream, felt like I could even go down a size (next order!) but needless to say, I'll definitely be buying more from Etnies! Thank you for making this Sasquatch feel seen

I'm actually pretty upset because I haven't even had these shoes a month and they are already ripping on the sides, just like my last pair of at least did and that's very frustrating because I live in a state where it rains a lot and my feet are getting silk because my shoes. Are ripping and it's very frustrating.

There’s not much to be said. Got put on to the Scout in 2020. It’s been my go to ever since. Just received my 5th pair. They are the best utility shoe ever!

Maranas have always been my go to for years but it makes me sad that they’re slowly getting rid of my favorite Logo. I know yall are trying to stick to the e design but please don’t stop using this one☝🏾

Been wearing Faders so long Imy friends and family say it’s my “signature shoe”. When I saw they made a white pair I had to get them to wear on my wedding day! I added ribbon laces and pearls and gems to the E’s. I am so happy with how they turned out! Everyone I’ve shown these to says they are “so me”. Faders will forever and always be my signature shoe.

Shoe was alil snug but I like snug shoes when I skate. Sic shape shoe, really dope asf.

This is my first pair of Etnies and suddenly I’m wearing them everyday. My other shoes and sneakers are collecting dust in my closet.

I love these shoes, I’ve been wearing the Etnies Barge LS at work and at home for over 10 years. I usually buy about 5 at a time and they last about 6 months each.
On my most recent purchase however, the sole on the pair of one of them started to come apart within the first week of wearing them. The rubber is peeling off and they are almost unwearable already. It’s as if they did not use enough glue or the bond on the rubber was done poorly. I’ve owned probably 20 pairs of these shoes, and this was the first time having an issue this bad. I still rate these 3 stars because I love these shoes and usually don’t have any issues, but if my rating was based only on this pair I would give it 1 star. They started falling apart within a week. I should return them and get a refund but hate the hassle.
Overall, they are great old school type of skate shoes and I hope they are never discontinued but I definitely got a faulty pair that snuck by the quality control.

I personally only got these because i was in need of a hightop to protect my ankles for practicing kickflips. I will say it has successfully protected them!! Good padding and still lots of mobility. I like the rubber used around the toe as well. (This pic is after one session and probably 200-300 attempted kickflips later) putting shoe goo on to stretch them out longer))

My daughter felt in love with them

I got these shoes from Amazon and at first was very excited. After about a week they started coming apart. I am tired of spending money on such poor quality, it seems like they are just coasting on their brand name now. I had a pair of Jameson Eco 2s that also wore out quickly after loving my first pair. Really disappointing

Best skate shoe all around and stylish too along with vision Street Wear oh and also my air conditioning shoes that I brought back from the future from 2045 believe it or not they still sell etnies in that time to come look what else I brought back!

Shoes are great, had to order some replacement shoe laces before I can actually wear them tho..arrived all frayed

I put them on and my steez instantly went straight up. With These Snake Etnies, My kickflips are EXxtra more buttery, I accumulated three new numbers, and i found my ancestral path back home, in Skateboarding.

Can’t believe we are able to buy a picture perfect SAL 23 in 2025. Amazing. Navy and purple colorways have the tongue straps! All earlier colorways do not BUT luckily still stay on your foot cause of the leather collar. Hopefully these never go away again

Very good shoes for flipping, with durable soles and the outer area that doesn't wear down between uses with the sandpaper.

Shoe started to come apart, so Etnies refunded me. Good shoe until it wasn't. Probably will give Etnies shoes another chance.

Love them and will keep buying them

idk why everyone is saying these run small - they’re very true to size and in line with how other etnies retros fit (snakes). insole/comfort won’t blow you away but keeps your foot locked in with great board feel. they also strike a perfect balance between puffy and slim. if they were good enough for greats like Creager, they’re good enough for me

The shoes are cool but they come in a normal shoe box. I expected them to come in the box that was pictured.

The Etnies Marana has been an incredible shoe for the price. It's got an excellent level of impact absorption. My only gripe is even sizing down, they still feel a hair long on my feet. They best I can describe the feel of the fit is, narrow and long. For me it leaves an extra few mm of empty space at the furthest point of the tip of the shoe. It's made flicking kickflips a little challenging to get used to. Otherwise, the shoe has been great. I wrote an in depth review of it over on Board of the World. Just look for the Etnies Marana Review in the recent skate articles.

Use code DAN20 for 20% while you can !! Size 12 for 42$ ah AMAZING 👏 🤩

I absolutely love the contrast between the green details against the crisp white shoes. The Fader has been my go to shoes for years ! Comfortable and stylish ... the perfect combination !

Had to replace an older, dark color of Marana's with these ones. They look good and feel great according to my daughter (in video).

Had these back in 93. One of my favorite skate shoes. I've been waiting for them to come back for a while I don't do much skating these days but I still love them. They are just as I remember.
