For the last 16 years etnies owner and CEO Pierre-Andre Senizergues has inspired the brand's staff, pro riders, family and friends to head to L.A.'s Skid Row and rally together at the Los Angeles Mission's annual Easter event. Each year Pierre and his team pass out 2,000 pairs of etnies shoes to the homeless living on the streets.
