Etnies vegan 2025

Note 1: As you may have heard SoleTech (Etnies/éS/Emerica) was sold to a Swiss company (the Nidecker group). It is not owned by Pierre-André Senizergues anymore.

Note 2:
I'm not sure if BMX shoes are somehow different from Etnies "skate" shoes. For example: the soles might be different?


As always: only these colourways are vegan! Most colourways are not vegan. If they are vegan & older colourways, you can probably find them here (unless they have an all-canvas upper; I don't post all of those).
