Product Information

Full details

The Etnies Barge LS Trainers are designed for adult men who need a reliable, low-profile skate shoe that balances board control with everyday comfort. Featuring a durable suede construction and a slimmed-down aesthetic, they are an ideal choice for both street skating and casual daily wear. While they offer excellent board feel, the slim padding profile means they provide less impact absorption than bulkier, high-tech skate shoes.

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Etnies Barge LS typically fits true to standard adult UK sizing; however, because of the slim profile, those with wider feet may prefer to size up by a half size.

Can I use these for heavy impact skating?

While durable, the Barge LS is designed for board feel and flexibility rather than maximum impact absorption. For high-impact stair sets, a shoe with more substantial sole cushioning may be preferred.

How do I keep the suede clean?

Use a dry soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris. Avoid water as much as possible, and use a dedicated suede cleaner kit for deeper cleaning.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, the STI Comfort Level 1 insoles are removable, allowing you to clean them separately or replace them with custom orthotics if needed.

Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?

Suede is sensitive to moisture. While they can handle light splashes, it is best to avoid heavy rain and use a protective spray to extend their lifespan.

Troubleshooting

The suede is showing signs of discoloration or white salt marks.

Gently clean with a suede-safe eraser or a mixture of water and white vinegar, then brush the fibers once dry.

The laces keep coming undone during skating.

Consider using a double knot or replacing the stock laces with high-traction waxed laces to prevent slipping.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable suede construction resists wear and tear
  • Clean, low-profile silhouette is versatile for casual styling
  • Excellent board feel thanks to the vulcanized sole
  • One-piece toe design reduces common failure points

Cons

  • Lower level of padding may not suit high-impact jump skating
  • Suede material requires specific care to maintain appearance
  • Slim design may feel narrow for those with wider feet

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Etnies Barge LS trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since these are made from suede, avoid machine washing, which can damage the material's texture. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or dust. For tougher stains, utilize a dedicated suede cleaner and a specialized brush to restore the nap. It is recommended to apply a suede-specific water repellent spray before wearing them in wet conditions to provide a barrier against moisture and salt. Always let the shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can weaken the vulcanized glue bonding the sole to the upper.
