#etniesGivesBack at the LA Mission 2017
When etnies owner, Pierre-Andre Senizergues first arrived in America to pursue his dream to skate, he found himself homeless on the streets of Venice, California. Today, this experience is still one of the reasons why he is passionate and proud that etnies has given away a total 45,500 pairs of shoes worth $2.7 million in retail value in downtown Los Angeles, the nation’s largest concentration of homeless people living and sleeping on public sidewalks.
NEW Vegan Jameson HT (feat. Ryan Lay)
Introducing the Vegan Jameson HT. Gathering inspiration from Ryan Lay’s personal life choice and his performance needs in skateboarding footwear, etnies set out to create a durable, high-performance skate shoe for all vegan skaters. A variety of footwear can be considered vegan because they are made with all canvas and animal-friendly products. Although, they are not designed to last the daily abuses provided by skateboarding. The Jameson HT is constructed with synthetic suede across the toe box and an additional hidden flow molded toe cap as used in the Jameson XT. This flow molded toe cap under the vamp provides long-lasting durability. Utilizing the cupsole construction developed from the infamous Jameson SL for that faux vulc look with cupsole impact protection and durability.
Behind the Design: Helix
As the heart of the etnies innovation engine, the Helix pumps the blood into the Bloodlines and advances footwear technology for skateboarders. Within its design details, you will find skate performance DNA reminiscent of each Bloodline, offering the fundamental needs of a skate shoe: durability, impact resistance, breathability and grip.
Behind the Design: Jameson XT
After two years of research, development, trials and tribulations, the brand has carefully crafted the etnies Jameson XT. With hidden toe cap technology, exposed STI Evolution® Foam midsole, double cup outsole and the team’s favorite grip, this model is an improved version of the Jameson E-Lite. etnies is proud to introduce the newest style in the Jameson Bloodline, the Jameson XT.
