Detailed Review
When it comes to footwear that combines both function and flair, the Etnies Men's Scout Sneaker Skate Shoe stands out. The breathable mesh upper ensures that your feet remain well-ventilated, particularly during those intense skate sessions or while walking around town. The elastic heel support not only adds to the shoe's adaptability but also allows for easy entry and exit when you want to switch up your style with a drop-top look.
The STI Evolution Foam technology integrated into the midsole and outsole provides a soft landing with every step, making these sneakers perfect for skaters who require cushioning without adding bulk. Moreover, the rubber pods strategically placed on the outsole offer enhanced grip and durability, ensuring that you can rely on these shoes for performance on the board as well as casual wear.
Overall, the Etnies Scout Sneakers are a solid addition to any skater’s wardrobe. They strike a balance between comfort, durability, and eco-friendliness. However, potential buyers should consider their specific foot support needs, as the lack of advanced arch support might not suit everyone.

These are the most comfortable, lightweight, breathable sneakers! I had originally ordered my usual size which is a US 9.5 men's but as others have mentioned order 2 sizes up and they were right! These are not meant to skate in.. They are a everyday comfort pair of sneakers IMO. I will definitely buy these again when other color options become available
Great shoe for skating and jogging, and walking. Light weight and easy to clean. Although the shoe laces came apart fast and were a tad too short. But over all I would and will order another pair. I love them 💗
super light and comfy, a tad on the small size, will order up a 1/2 size next time.
This is my favorite shoe. Felt narrow at first but def stretched our. Is super comfy and light. Not the greatest for support, but that’s to be expected. Love this shoe.
The shoe is good looking and comfy, but I'm very disappointed with the quality.I first bought a pair and the back tread of the shoe started falling off on day 1. Having bought and liked Etnies before, I figured I was just unlucky this time, and exchanged them for a new pair of the same model. The back tread started falling off again after a couple of weeks, and now 2 month's later became completely detached. (see picture). Guess I'll try and superglue it. Very disappointing.
Great look, super and surprisingly light. Waaaaaay too narrow. Couldn’t even get my foot in sand im usually an 11.5 and I bought a 12… Such a bummer.
I love these, My first pair had lasted me for about 3 years now an they're still kicking. I use those one's for doing stuff outside where i'm not worried about getting them dirty or ruining them. Im lovein the color of the new one's cant wait to have them broken in an everything. I use these for the Gym, Cruising on my board, Work, And just about anything you can put them through. You would think they are not as tough as a normal soled shoe but I found that to not be the case like I said the first pair are still kicking but are gonna go within due time. They are built like a tank but feel like a baby's soft bottom on your feet.10-19-20 Edit: Still loving these shoes the first pair I spoke of are still wearable used them for cutting the grass ect, Not much support in those but the green ones that I had bought are still working like a charm I wish they were as padded as my first pair I had bought but still just as nice for work wear or disc golfing. Great shoes for the price for as long as mine have lasted me an the ones that are just being molded to my foot. If you're looking for an all around shoe I wouldn't recommend skating them they would be thrashed right away. Im going to order another pair because I like them so much.
Love these shoes. I use them for the gym and there really light and comfortable. They look great as well. I wear them everywhere actually probably my favorite pair of shoes
