Steele OP13 Aug 2011Hard to believe that the once top 3 footwear brand e'S is being “put on hiatus".
You gotta think they should have given Koston a share in the company when he asked... the slow death started once he jumped.
Vulcanised shoes also should get a finger pointed at them.
RIP.

http://www.slapmagazine.com/component/option,com_jfusion/Itemid,4/index.php?topic=55463.0If this is true it sucks, but I'm not surprised. Cant really live of the Accel for ever, even though it was awesome in its day. The change to simple, low-cut designs took way too long, every other shoe company had a couple of the lines before th Edward or square two came out

Senoir Pignut13 Aug 2011what!! that fucking sucks! as much as i like adidas and nike shoes, they're just shutting down the genuine shoe companies that actually care about skating! soon you'll be buying le coq sportif decks

.bean14 Aug 2011Fuck man, my very first pair of legit skate shoes was McCrank's Antisocial shoe back in 05. I also had a pair of Accel's in 07. Menikmati and éSpecial are some of my all time favourite skate videos as well. Thanks for everything éS!
this actually breaks my heart! eS was the most legit company, and me too my first pair of skate shoes were a pair of accels and i loves eS ever since.

krang14 Aug 2011how does this just happen out of nowhere?
they were releasing new shoes and pro models and building the team up. es seemed to be doing pretty well again surely if the company wasnt doing well they would of faded out for a while like adio did

Ffaggotm8noworries14 Aug 2011they should have transfered the etnies skate team and cut etnies instead
