Etnies Locut II

I know a lot of skateboarders out there bash Etnies for making shoes with the sideways logo on the side all the time and selling to Pacsun. But I'm not like that. I bought Etnies Locut II as my second pair of skate shoes after 6 months of off and on skating Adio and I anticipated a good shoe. I wasn't a really good skateboarder then, I could just ollie off small drops and spin flip tricks. I don't think these shoes should be sold or used for skateboarding because they are very stiff and tear up way to easily. It was just an uncomfortable shoe and I wasn't even that good but the shoe still tore up like crazy. I eventually gave the shoe to my buddy who started to get holes in his socks after skating hard everday with them for about 2 months.

These shoes are WAY to stiff. You cant get the flex that you need out of them for basic skateboard tricks

I've been looking for them for about 2 years because I cant find good skate shoes in Romania.. and now I finally found them.. I have vans rowley xlt and emericas but these etnies - locut2 kick ass ! specially the model black with the logo white .. i dont know if ill use them for skating.. and that's lame but I dont wanna scratch them cuz i wont find new ones. Get some !
