text: I love these sneakers! The color is pink,  not hot pink like so many other athletic shoes these days, with purple and mint green.  That elastic across the back of the heel helps with the fit but doesn't cut into it. The shoe is a very lightweight foam kinda material. Not much arch support  though and no memory foam.  Etnies is a skate brand shoe so I imagine this style is designed accordingly. They look really cute though!
