Reviews
Customers praised these skate shoes for their exceptional Michelin rubber sole, offering superior grip and long-lasting durability. Reviewers noted they're "slimmer than the Marana but just as comfortable" and work well both for skating and everyday wear. Initial break-in period may feel tight, but fit becomes perfect once broken in.
- Grip AND durability. A skate shoe you can actually wear outside skating too.
- Absolutely love the Michelin rubber. Lasts forever.
- Feel amazing and fit perfectly once broken in.
This looks identical to the old Joslin, of which I’ve had three plus one Marana. They’re so comfy and really do last forever!
Hey Tim, thanks for sharing your experience with the Wallen Michelin.
Stoked to hear they’re living up to the comfort and durability of the old Joslin and Marana — that’s exactly what we aim for with every pair.

Love this shoe! Skated the Joslins 1 & 2 and this feels just like it 💯💯
The best shoes. Super light, super comfortable. Skate and feel amazing. I usually skate the marana’s, but these are better. Please don’t stop making these shoes.
I've been a huge fan of Michelin Marianas for so many years. The Michelin is magic - grip AND durability.
So incredibly glad that Etnies is finally expanding the Michelin sole to more models.
Stoked that these feel the same, maybe slightly more board feel, but a skate shoe you can actually wear outside skating too.
Hi Christopher. A long time Michelin Marianas fan, now that's what we're talking about! Thank you so much for the love and for sticking with us all these years! We're so stoked to hear the Michelin magic is translating across the new models for you, grip, durability AND that extra board feel? Sounds like a win to us! Here's to many more sessions in and out of the skatepark. Keep shredding!

Great shoe. Holds up well to a good stretching with the shoe stretcher to get some more width. And my previous pair lasted forever. Michelin bottom really does last a long time. My favorite skating shoe right now. Looks classy too, been wearing it all day long for half a year. Just bought two more pairs in case it goes away. Thanks Etnies!
Hey Scott. Buying two more pairs just in case, now THAT'S the ultimate stamp of approval! So stoked to hear the Michelin sole is holding up and that it's been your go-to for both skating and everyday wear. The shoe stretcher tip is super helpful too, thanks for sharing that with the community! See you next time!

Perfect shoes, with Michelin Rubber and Flo2 System. These ventilated tongues make all the difference. Please Etnies !! We want more Wallen, or at least marana with flo2. Thanks 'n bye !!
Hey Bertrand, thanks for the stoke on the Wallen Michelin!
We’re glad the Michelin rubber and FLO2 system are hitting the mark — those ventilated tongues really do make a difference. Appreciate the shout for more Wallen and Marana with FLO2 — we hear you!

Slimmer than the Marana but just as comfortable. Absolutely love the Michelin rubber. Lasts forever. Takes a little bit to break in and feel a bit tight at first but feel amazing and fit perfectly once broken in. These and the Marana are perfect skate shoes.
Hi Magarcia! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our Wallen Michelin product. We're glad to hear that you find them just as comfortable as the Marana, and we couldn't agree more about the Michelin rubber - it definitely lasts forever! We're happy to hear that they fit you perfectly once broken in, and we hope you continue to enjoy them for a long time. Thanks again for the feedback!

Great stuff
Such a great shoe, I really hope they keep making it.. I have weird wide feet and these fit great. Perfect balance between board feel and protection in my opinion. As you may know, this is the exact same shoe as the former "Joslin" pro model. The only difference is the name and the insole is not that smooth slippery material it used to be. I prefer the old slippery material, easier to get your foot in there.
Hi Simon,
Thank you for your review of our Wallen Michelin skate shoe! We're so glad to hear that it's the best shoe for you, and that it fits your wide feet comfortably. We're happy to hear that it strikes a perfect balance between board feel and protection for you. Thank you for your feedback on the insole material, we'll definitely take it into consideration for future improvements. Keep on skating!
