Japanese éS rider, Shinya Masuda, skating LA in tribute and loving memory of his late mother. Filmed by Vitor Borger.
I’ve always had a ton of respect for Rodrigo “Rod” Creager, his style is super smooth, technical, and ahead of its time. He’s one of the most underrated skaters from the golden era, and seeing his name on an és product instantly brings back those classic vibes. Definitely love the legacy he represents.
As for the product itself, solid quality, just like I expected from és.
These are my second pair of eS shoes, my first were Koston K3's. The Accel OG variant has been great. I like the ankle cushioning and puffy tongue, and the two-tone grey looks good with everything. But it wasn't until I put in a long ride that I realized why they're called Accel. The shoe's sole is wide, angled, medium-soft and stable -- perfect if you are an older skater like me that gets plantar facitis. There is a big difference between a skateboarding shoe and a basketball shoe with skateboard features attached as an afterthought. I love the Accel and will be back for another pair when the shoe finally wears thin...
Had the exact pair when I was in Middle School/High School. The design is flawless and always looks good
Good to go right out the box from Canton to Miami I’ve been loving them on every push. BONAFIDE CLASSIC! Go get yourself two pairs!
