I'm a licensed contractor and can be found anywhere on a jobsite from roofs to basements and everything in between. Skate shoes have been a staple since I was a kid, it's what I've always worn. The DC Court Graphix have been my go too for years now, but due to unavailability I decided to give Etnies a try as I know the quality is there.
In between the King Pin and the Scout I'm sold. Both very comfortable shoes that hold up well to the abuse I put them through. The Scout is great for the long days of interior work, and the King Pin is just well rounded. Needless to say I've ordered about 8 pairs in the last month as I kind of got addicted to them. 😜
You'll often find me riding BMX these days, but Etnies are a great shoe all around. Keep up the good work! 🤘🏽
