Etnies barge review

Hi all, just thought I would do a little review on the etnies barge shoes that I have been skating for the past month.







The only thing that I changed on these were the insoles which I swapped out for the Footprint insoles.  There is an earlier review if you guys want to know a bit more about the fp insoles.

Ive always found with Etnies that they come up slightly on the big side and these were no different, im a size uk 8 but to be honest I could of done with a 7.5, I think they would have been a much nicer fit.  So if your thinking of buying etnies barge then you may want to try a half size down from what you would normally wear.

They have a nice padded tongue, not too much but not too little.  The collar is slightly padded.  Overall a slim silhouette of a shoe.

These have worn really well, being all suede obviously helps.

Board feel is great with these as with any vulcanised sole and the sole has worn really well.

The toe hasnt split through yet but all the stitching around the ollie area has given way and ripped right through to my sock.


These have a classic look about them and are a great skate shoe and the price for these is pretty good too.
I would definately recommend these if you are looking for a good all round functional skate shoe that looks good and you can skate straight out the box.

As always feel free to comment below with any questions.

Happy skateboarding peeps :)
