The Kingpin is a classic puffy-tongue skate shoe inspired by the earlier etnies Fader design. It sports a durable suede upper with perforated “E” logos on the side, a die-cut EVA insole and egg crate midsole for cushioning, and a 400 NBS rubber outsole for grip. With its generously padded tongue and collar, the Kingpin delivers retro styling and comfort while built to withstand daily skate abuse.

Henry ★★★★★

I've been skating in these for three weeks and the suede upper has barely scuffed, even after a few hard bails. The die-cut EVA insole actually holds up on long sessions, which I wasn't expecting from a shoe this chunky.

Adam ★★★★★

The puffy tongue on these is exactly what I wanted, no weird creasing after a few weeks of skating. EVA insole actually absorbs the landings on flatground tricks. Feels like the old school skate shoes I grew up wearing.

Natalie G. ★★★★★

The egg crate tongue really does cushion the top of my foot, which I didn't expect from a skate shoe. I've been wearing them daily for about a month and the die-cut EVA insole still feels supportive.
