Great for walking and all-day wear

Etnies Scout Plus is not a strong contender for a durability match, so look away if you desire a tough, reliable pair. Go for Etnies Kingpin or Etnies Vanguard instead.

Weightlessness trade-off for durability

The downside, though, was its durability suffered from its feathery light mass. Some already assumed that it would lack durability, but others proved it by using this sneaker for skating. One revealed: “After a very short skate session, my toe cap was starting to rip more than I thought it would.”
