etnies, global action sports footwear and apparel company, is proud to announce we’ve reached our goal of planting two million trees by 2020 with our partners Trees for the Future, thanks to the continued help and support of our fans and retailers. We’re excited to announce the expansion of our Buy a Shoe, Plant a Tree project. For every purchase of etnies footwear from our 2020 collection, one tree donation will be made to Trees for the Future in your honor, as a representation of your support and participation.

The Buy a Shoe, Plant a Tree project is made possible only with your help. Growing steadily since the initial launch in 2011 driven by the Jameson 2 Eco, it is constructed using vegan-friendly materials and a 20% recycled rubber outsole.

We are proud to introduce our new Bloom and Preserve collections in our Spring 2020 footwear line. With the goal of reducing our impact on the environment, our products were designed utilizing our most eco-friendly materials.

The new Bloom Collection for Spring 2020 features styles created using the world’s first plant-based foam, formulated with algae biomass, a recycled inner lining and mesh upper, and laces made of recycled plastic bottles.

Our Preserve Collection includes our most eco-friendly styles, featuring Bloom insoles, 100% organic

Barcelona may be a mecca of street riding but it doesn't mean it's always easy out there. Take this plaza for instance - try and ride there in the day and you'll get the boot from skaters or eager cops alike. Our dude Rafael Black and the likes of Miki Fleck, the Bispaliy twins and more headed down there under the cover of darkness for a sesh. Enjoy!

Brandon went out to Barcelona to work on a few projects and came back with this for you.

Unfortunately I'm spending too many days isolated at home for this damned disease that is the Covid-19, without riding, without training, only eating spaghetti and pizza the whole time. But, I had the idea to make a little tribute to the legendary "Le freaky bone" edit made few years ago by the MASTER Alex Liiv (that obviously obliterated my mind at that time).

A name in Australian BMX that needs no introduction,  Alex Hiam has been on his bike since most of us were still playing with toy trucks in the sandpit. Coming from the bayside Alex made a mark early in his life with multiple comp winnings and video parts.

Kenneth Tencio has been riding like a man possessed as of late. Watch some of his insane new moves and learn about his fine-tuned mentality leading into the 2020 Olympics.

Based on the assessment made by the World Health Organisation (WHO) of the current situation related to the COVID-19 epidemic, and the restrictive measures taken by a number of countries within Europe and beyond prohibiting, in particular, gatherings and movement of people, the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) today announces a series of decisive measures with the aim of ensuring the maximum protection of health of all those involved in cycling events and sporting equity between participants. Not wishing to contribute to the spread of the virus and with the aim of ensuring sporting equity in its competitions, the UCI, after several crisis meetings held at the end of last week and over the weekend, has taken the following measures:

• The safety of athletes being a priority mission of the UCI, organisers are expressly requested  to cancel any cycling event on the UCI International Calendar in territories identified at risk by the WHO;
   
• Suspension of all classifications for all events on the UCI International Calendar, across all disciplines, from 15 March 2020 and until further notice but at least until 3 April 2020. By freezing the points during the period indicated, the UCI is preserving sporting equity for the athletes;
   
• With regard to the qualification procedure for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games,
