San Leandro CA, – Skate Shop News: éS Footwear Setting the Standard for Skateboarding

1995 was an amazing year, a sad year, an exciting year. 

1995 was the year the internet became publicly available in homes across the world. It was the year O.J. Simpson went on trial and captivated America. Braveheart was in theaters, and we lost Jerry Garcia.

But what’s more important is that it was the year éS Footwear was born and heel bruises met their match.

éS Footwear brought comfort and style in a time when puffy tongues where set to take over the world. Things were getting ridiculous. You could either pick a waffle grip with no padding, or a fully bulletproof motocross shoe… what choices! When éS Footwear hit the shops, skateboarders, hip hop fans, breakers alike flocked to the shoes because of the fluid styles, colors, durability and over all comfort.

éS Footwear had the game on lock… Until they didn’t. 

Seemingly overnight they were gone. Rumors of bankruptcy and skater’s leaving the brand for other high end sports brands….. 

Never the less, éS Footwear returned in all its glory in 2016.

Keeping with their classic lines and styles, éS Footwear burst back onto the scene with an amazing line of shoes that hold true to the éS Footwear family while maintaining a fresh look and modern feel. Skater’s were overjoyed and welcome éS Footwear back with open arms and loving embraces. Pro Skaters Kelly Hart, Wade Desarmo and Tom Asta represent the iconic brand, and they do it well. 

Thank you éS Footwear for coming back. If you could bring back the Koston 3’s we would all really appreciate it. Thanks.
