A Decade of_The Best Part of Skateboarding
Welcome to the 10 Year Celebration of éS Footwear! All of you dedicated éS heads better stay tuned, cuz once every two weeks, we're going to take a nice, little look at each year of the first decade of the brand, from 1995 all the way to 2005. We'll be posting a grip of rare, vintage photos of all your favorite éS team riders, shoes, ads and other fun stuff, so be sure to check back often. Just like a Sea Monkey, dip the éS Footwear brand in water and watch it grow before your very eyes into one of the best skateboarding shoe brands and teams the world has ever known.

és for life bitches... keep pimpin
I'll Never Stop Rockin Es, Es For Life
sweeeet. but you guys deleted the entry that had me first! jk
awesome..been waiting for this
Even I'm excited.
cheah, word
you can't dip és fotwear in water!
This is gonna be one of those wonder years type things isn't it. Remembering good times gone and crying about (weep weep). Just joking, this is gonna be scandalous. Good idea guys.
when's the first one coming?
this sounds like its gonna be pretty tight, can't wait, are you gonna wip out with a 10 year anniversary shoe?
This'll be sick
geoff - there's an ad in the new transworld for their 10 year aniversary colorways. there's gonna be a black/silver colorway for each shoe on the line to celebrate 10 years of es
alright, that sounds gnarly, thanks dude.
are you gonne put some of the colorways of all the models?
cant wait to see the first eS shoe ever made
Great company...even greater idea.
dats going 2 b pretty SIK
that bi-weekly thing reminded me, what ever happened to the es shoe give away? wasnt that a monthly thing? did that stop? how come?
anyway, i learned not to step outta my accel plusses into anything else. i had picked up a pair of some nikes. it was hot for 10 minutes. then i realized none of my clothes look right, like, everythin i own is based on the fit of accel plusses. strap saves my jeans from draggin. eS, keep makin em right.
ode to eS on my link!
small but its there!
As a special 'celebration treat', re-release the old Penny 1s.
re-release all the previous kostons that arent on the current lineup
when does this come out
pretty cool
show the OG eS Ad with Penny doing that switch crooked off that long/high ass ledge. and the OG line up Koston, Penny, Muska, Barbier, Creager, Sharpe, Burnquist
my first pair of eS were the solist, those were awesome
javier scares me
My first pair of eS shoes were the Burnquist 2
holy fuck, i just read the comments for the skaterumours blog, and god damn, those people are fucked, that guy was pretending to be everyone, and then some other guy came in pretending to be mcrank, but Josh P told him off, I wanted to comment there, but comments were closed, and I needed to state how gay that was somewhere, so i chose here.
Cheers.
oh, and can you guys bring an éS game of skate into Canada sometime? you know, cause that'd be tight, I've taken a $300 game once, but that was the only big game i've ever even heard of in Canada ever, and éS is so gnarly, so that'd draw a crowd.
they should have a vote to bring back a retired model and re make it with g2 and such. like everyones favorite past model, have a poll or nominate some and vote on them and re-release them. that would be awesome.
i was thinking, that during this whole anniversary thing, that es should open up a temporary mailorder, and only sell retired shoes and maybe put a limit on how many per person or something, i mean, es couldnt really lose money if they are selling shit, they wouldnt be competing with the other mailorder companys because it would be all retired shoes, and es wouldnt have to worry about making too many shoes and not selling them, they could always just have it be expected that the shoes would ship in a month or something, so they would only have to make what peolpe order, not what they expect people to order, and the leftovers could go to the pros on the team. sounds like a good idea right? to me it does, ive been wanting to find pairs of older es shoes that i unfortunately never had the chance to skate and my search isnt working out too well. plus i think everyone would like to get their hands on a bunch of the older shoes too. haha and then es could send timeline posters with each pair! ok maybe that part was a bit of a joke, but you guys should really suggest that mailorder store to the boss. couldnt hurt right
yeah i think that is a pretty good idea .
(the one above)
yeah, that's a good idea, i've been wanting a pair of EOs and never got the chance to find them anywhere, maybe there will be an oppurtunity here ...
i will think that the K3 and the EOS are the most wanted, i always wanted the red/whiite K3 and the black/drk grey/gum EOS
i'm making a little photo's site on the éS shoes since the beginning.
It's a new site but i have many photos to upload soon...
you can find it here :

sence when did i need to sign up for wordpress to get on the Es website?
YEAH i GET TO SEE p-ROD, rONNIE Creager, and Arto
is it true that the accelerates are like the accels except they have the system g2 full impact. because i really love the accels but after skating long hours your heel starts hurting and then your whole foot sometimes starts hurting.so i was wondering if anyone can explain me the differences and if the acclerates hurt after skating long hours before i want to buy them.so if anyone has the acclerates please answer my question.
Tony XeS - you have a picture of the Rover in the Workout section!! Cool site. Thanks for the support!!
Tony Xes you also said mock when you meant mack
sweet- the accelerates are alot like the accels, i had a pair they were very comfortable, sometimes a shoe when its not worn in will make my feet sore on the first day of skating them but not the accelerates, i would say try them on in person first and not just order ones in your size cause im usually an 11 but i think a 10.5 accelerate would have been better than the 11s. obviously they dont look exactly like the accels but who cares they look and skate sick anyways. hope that answers your question
when are you guys are gonna put in some of the old shoes???
ive never heard Josh P. or Craig talking about their favorite shoe, or what shoe they would like to bring back or nothing like that .
I would like to hear (read ) more about them, they havent been around this blog to often, anyway just put in the pictures.
thanks alot kev but i just really want to know if they skate as good and if they last as long
sweet - ummm they skate really well, i felt liek the sole was a little bit bulkier than the accel/accel plus but it was nothing important or anything to worry about, i mean with all the extra g2 in their they gotta be a little bit thicker, but as long as you dont prefer paper for a sole you dont have anything to worry about haha. and i didnt get a single foot bruise. and they last just as long i mean i had the suede ones so same material pretty much is same lasting length. if you get them, your feet will be happy lets just put it that way
josh/craig - is it against company policy to bring a shoe back without changing it? i dont mean to be like pushin anything but is the idea of bringing some old stuff back something we should forget or is it possible? and have you guys ever considered a design your own shoe contest like the way the tshirt contest was set up, or is designing a shoe far to complicated to make something like that happen? lots of questions i know sorry just a curious person i guess haha
thanks alot kev, now im sure that im going to get the accelerates
ok !
i have update and solve the errors !
thanks !
