Product details

The etnies Jameson Vulc is a simple yet functional shoe. Users can’t wait to experience the improved board feel and flick. These mens shoes are not only built with great durability; they offer comfort and protection too. The thinly padded collar and tongue sit on top of the thin vulc rubber, which make this shoe flexible and grippy. Another new feature is the Etnies’ signature RCT tread pattern of the outsole. This is the shoe that is hard not to have for skateboard fans and those who appreciate a casual and relaxing street style. It is the sort of shoe that will get compliments from others.

 

Size and fit

The shoe is generally true to size. Some may feel a bit of a stiff and tight fit in the beginning but it does not take long to walk round to break them in. With a great fit under the feet, this lightly padded shoe gives users good impact protection with its cushioning.

Outsole / midsole

The Jameson Vulc uses a vulcanized sole. To skaters, both vulcanized sole and cup sole are very popular. The vulc sole is particularly dedicated for the maximum board feel. It is good for users who do jumping sets on the flat ground as they will enjoy the shoe more. On top of that, the shoe’s secret is to push further the sensational feel that lies in the design of the lower toe box. It keeps the vamp closer to the feet, and therefore uses gets better flick on board.

To skate with extra comfort, the sole’s egg crate construction and STI Foam Lite 1 insole provides impact protection and cushioning. The signature RCT tread pattern doesn’t just look cool, it makes the grip long-lasting.

Upeer

The shoe’s upper comes in choices of canvas, and suede in black, blue, red and grey. The abrasion-resistant upper can stand up to lots of wear and tear.
