Etnies Kingpin WT Shoes. 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. Imported.
