Marana Skate Shoes
The etnies Marana is the most durable skate shoe in the lineup. The result of a direct collaboration with Michelin®, the tyre manufacturer that has dominated endurance motorsport for decades. The Michelin® rubber outsole used on the Marana is engineered using the same compound development process applied to high-performance racing tyres: optimised for grip across surfaces, resistance to wear under sustained friction, and consistent performance across temperature changes.
In practical skate terms, this means the Marana outlasts standard rubber outsoles significantly - particularly in the high-wear areas under the ball of the foot and the ollie zone. The cupsole midsole delivers substantial impact protection for heavy skating: stair sets, gaps, hard landings and long sessions where foot fatigue compounds.
The Marana is the choice if you skate hard, go through shoes fast, or want the most technically engineered shoe in the etnies range. It runs in multiple colourways and is consistently one of the brand's highest-rated models.
