“The toe is inspired by the toe cap the Shaolin Warriors wear, with a twist that’s influenced by a classic etnies shape. The toe cap, whether it’s flicking ollie tricks, catching casper stalls or even knee sliding on vert ramps, the toe is a crucially worn area. In my mind, having a strong and durable toe on my shoe is near the top of my list of “must haves.”
Why Forest green? This colorway is a silent celebration of my upbringing in White Rock, BC. It’s in a Boreal Rainforest, with dark pines and cloudy days that made up most of my skate days until I recently moved to Venice Beach, CA. This colour reminds me of home, the clouds and the ravine I lived next to – I would walk under the pines and look up at the sky everyday. Whether it was on my way to school, to the skatepark, or even to the coffee shop, I would find time to pick up my board and dirty my shoes with the forest floor. For me, the forest is for rest.
For years, I have dreamt of having a shoe for etnies – dreams really do come true!” - Andy Anderson
