2013 Etnies Marana Ryan Sheckler Shoes

Etnies Marana Skate Shoes

Here it is kiddos, the long awaited Etnies Ryan Sheckler 7 Shoes – actually they’re not called that at all.  The shoe’s real name is the Etnies Marana.  The Etnies Marana comes in 3 colorways, the Ryan Sheckler shoes just happens to have one specific color – red.  We actually caught some heat from a Marana Ryan Sheckler  Shoes video we posted before the November, 26th release date.  It’s all about pushing the limits…

Ryan Sheckler has had 6 different major pro model shoes produced by Etnies; actually there is more because series like the 5 & 6 come in options like the 5 LX and 6 Fusion.  Yes, one could argue Shecks has had more than 6 pro model shoes.  Every Ryan Sheckler pro model has performance improvements but sometimes designs has been used from previous models, for example, the Sheckle 5 has the mid-top and one-piece toe designs of the Shecker 4 and side panel vertical lines from the Sheckler 2.  Its almost has if Etnies is retrofitting Ryan Sheckler pro model shoes for each release, except for this one.

Here’s the interesting thing, the shoe is actually called the Marana and not the Sheckler 7.  The Etnies Marana Shoes come in black/white, grey/white, or red/white.  Within the Marana shoe styles Shecks has a select colorway – red/white.  The only major difference between the red/white colorway and the others, from what we’ve seen, is the removable  insole with the Ryan Sheckler RS iconic logo and Ryan Sheckler’s name screen printed near the heel cup.  People may get confused as to what insole they’ll receive if they purchase a red/white pair of Etnies Marana Shoes…The samples we shot (gallery below) have the same insole that the other colorways have, yet all of the advertising images show that the Etnies Marana Ryan Sheckler Shoes have Ryan Sheckler branding on the red/white insole.  Does it really matter?  Nope.
