Although at one point, a supposed "skater" shoe, people now just wear etnies because they're comfortable. Real skaters hate them - and who can blame them? It made it look like you could buy something they base they're lives on in a store! But they aren't considered skater shoes anymore, as a lot of people where them because A) they're comfortable, or B) last a long time. Of course, there's still posers who think they are *super* *hardcore* skater for buying (which they aren't), but it doesn't seem to make a difference anymore.
In my small-ass mountain town, everyone wore shoes like Etnies or Vans- and none of us even knew they were condsidered skate shoes (we wore them for comfort, and that they survived for years).

Etnies have really nice shoes and I love the sweaters and T-shirts. They are mostly like a skateboarding brand and other extreme sports

1. The most awesomest shoes to ever be on this planet, (besides Chuck Taylor's). Posers like to wear them, but also realy skaters,(like me), wear them! Posers need to freaking get a clue when it comes to picking out their outfits in the morning! Bmx, snowboarding, and any other hard core sport also is supported by these shoes an clothing line.
2. Also a diseas where you poop ALOT!
