etnies 

poser shoes, real skaters wear shoes like es, Osiris, DC, ect...

Etnies are the shoes that people wear when they like the look of skate shoes but dont actually skate, thus the above defenition, poser shoes. (Vans also fall into this catagory.)

Bob:Dude i just bought a new pair of etnies! Im so skater-like!!!
Skater George: Those shoes are poser shoes. U need to buy some real sk8 shoes like es's. Or not buy skate shoes at all and buy Nikes, queer.

evil shoes that everyone has. especially people who don't skate. also a clothing line that people who dont skate wear, and people who do skate, well, hate.

FUCKING PACSUN, SELLING CLOTHS AND SHOES LIKE THAT! BAH! if you don't skate, stick with sketchers er chucks, er something.
