Review: A Shoe Fit for a Skateboarding King (or Just a Regular Guy) - As a casual skateboarder (okay, fine, I'm not very good, but I can ollie...sometimes), I'm always on the lookout for a comfortable and stylish skate shoe. And let me tell you, the Etnies Kingpin did not disappoint. Pros: First of all, these shoes are stylish as heck. The classic Etnies logo and sleek design make me feel like a legit skater (even if I'm just cruising around the neighborhood). And the comfort level is off the charts - I could wear these babies all day long and my feet wouldn't even know they're in a skate shoe. The padded tongue and collar provide excellent support, and the STI Foam Lite Level 1 footbed is like a little cloud for your feet. But wait, there's more! The Etnies Kingpin is also a great value. Compared to some of the other skate shoes on the market, these are a steal. And with a durable rubber outsole and triple-stitched toe cap, they'll hold up to even the gnarliest of skate sessions (or just regular old walking around, if that's more your speed). Cons: The only downside to the Etnies Kingpin is that they make me feel like a bit of a poser. I mean, I'm not exactly shredding the half-pipe or grinding rails here - I'm just a regular guy who happens to like the look and feel of skate shoes. But hey, if feeling like a poser is the price I have to pay for comfort and style, I'll take it. The Etnies Men's Kingpin Skateboarding Shoe is made of a combination of leather and synthetic materials, with a rubber sole. It comes in a variety of colors to suit your personal style, and is available in sizes 5-14. Whether you're a seasoned skater or just someone who appreciates a comfortable and stylish shoe, the Etnies Kingpin is a great choice. It's affordable, durable, and will make you feel like a skateboarding king (or just a regular guy, if that's more your thing). Just be prepared to feel a little bit like a poser - but hey, isn't that just part of the fun?
Review: Pretty good for the price - These are my second or third pair of these over the last few years. They are OK quality, remember that these are not the $150 higher end Etnies but they are ok and a lot better than $30 grocery store shoes. The soles are not good though after 1-2 months of casual wear. They might run just a smidge on the small side but not bad, maybe about 1/2 size smaller on my feet. They last me about a year of casual outdoor only use in the Pacific NW
