Great quality shoes very comfortable will last years. had my last pair of etnies shoes (joslin) for 2 years waring daily still holding strong no major ware on the in or outer sole just grown out of them.

Etnies skate shoe history: Marana then Joslin and now Marana Santa Cruz. I will be very loyal to either Marana or Joslin, they never fail me. I love how Etnies fit, feel, cushion and sloooowly wear down.

This pair of Maranas surprised me in that they felt tighter than my other two pairs. However, a couple of days with shoe stretchers, some time out on the board and they are started to feel like home.

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.

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!

I love these shoes! They fit well and look good 👍
