2000: Menikmati
Friday, Sep 23, 2005 · Garry
éS Footwear premieres it’s heavily anticipated Menikmati video to wide public acclaim. The arrival of Menikmati inspires a new movement of shoe company skate videos into an arena that had previously been dominated in large part by hardgoods manufacturers.

New Brazilian import Rodrigo Tx. finds his way onto the éS team by way of Bob Burnquist. Rodrigo will go on to amaze everyone with his uncanny switch skating ability and his penchant for combining tricks in a way that no one thought possible.

éS introduces Tri-Tek™, a completely new kind of Ollie protection developed from EVA, rubber crystals and phylon, which grips like rubber without wearing down quickly or destroying grip tape, on the Cyber and the Diode models.

9/24/05 at 05:11It’s weird how tech shoes were back in like 2000 and then to look at them 5 years later now there all simple and generic looking they are. I think it’s kinda sad cause most companies all have similar designs and junk, I still can’t figure out what brought on this whole wave of simple generic shoe…

9/24/05 at 08:34I’ve been skating ‘eS for 9 years, from the very start. The first two pairs were the SLB and the Uno. I’ve always trusted and loved these shoes. Trends come and go. The tech shoes were nice but trust what ‘eS is putting out. The Penny 2 is an amazing shoe. The Penny 2 low top should be nice as well. Remember, it’s about the skating, the culture, and the love of what you do. ‘eS embodies all of these things.

I just bought the accelerates and they feel pretty good. They have a different shape to em compared to the accel. More space, a bit wider. Should skate pretty good, they look sick.

the dude says:
9/26/05 at 04:43i got menikmati on dvd a year ago. i was so lucky to get it cause you cant find it anywhere anymore. i thoroughly enjoy watching it.
on a completely different subject, i’ve also noticed, with just about everyone else, that over the past five years, the design in skate shoes has become more toned down and more basic. One good example is the Emerica Reynolds line. His first model had the airbag, rubber toecap, and plenty of other features. it looked damn good on top of that. then its starts to become more simple with his second model and then his third model comes around and it looks like a damn converse all-star with no padding or hardly any protection. i guess what im trying to get at is that there wasn’t reallly anything wrong with having “teched out” shoes and that you should start to make them again.
gravatar of eS blog commenter, the dude
the dude says:
9/26/05 at 04:51alright, after looking at those shoes at the top they don’t look so great, i just really liked the Reynolds 1. it was what i had in mind when i thought of a tech shoe, not those puffy moon shoes.

9/26/05 at 11:19Whoa lots of questions here….
Ocean - Mike Manzoori is doing most (maybe all) of editing. Of course Scuba Steve will have a lot of his footage in it. Along with many others.
qfed - I don’t think Koston will care. It’s a little odd but who cares?
TonyXeS - Hopefully Craig can help ya because I’m drawing a blank.
David B - Probably next month for the October releases.

9/27/05 at 07:46i think there a new shoe era coming or its already started and i think its the simple shoe era. all the shoes at skateshops look almost the same as the other. theres usually no kind of special features that sets them apart from appearance.now all you see is one colored shoes that almost looks the same as the other. atleast that what i think.

Even shirts and skate clothes in general are all plain and ugly it is hard to find clothes that stand out anymore. I loved all the crazy designs and colorways that companies Like Es, Axion, Dc and Dvs had back then my favs were the the Daewon3’s the Schemes, and the Red Josh Kalis’s

9/29/05 at 12:28Tom Penny, by far, is the best skater on eS. He doesn’t enter contests, he has no need for them. All he does is skate for himself. He’s an enigma, but that’s what makes him so great. I saw him skating once in Europe and that was the best part of the trip. He’s like the white whale, so elusive yet so amazing when you see him.

9/30/05 at 06:11All you guys are saying shoes today are so generic and that way back shoes used to be different and distinguished. Look at the chart of shoes up at the top. Now forget the colours, and just imagine sihlouettes. They all have virtually the exact same shape and dimensions. The only one that is signifigantly different it the K3.

Josh P. says:
9/30/05 at 03:59OK even more questions…
Charlie - The white/blue colorway is fake. The Flik should be up sometime next month.
Alex - The sole on the Anti-Social is just a regular Accel sole. But we are designing a sole just for the Anti-Socail as we speak.
Cory - I think Koston has on some tan/gum Accels.
Sean - It the first shoe to have Full Impact G2. Other shoes could end up with it too.
Matt - No, the sole shouldn’t do that. Take them back to were you bought them.

10/2/05 at 10:06Alex - Niether Criag or I are in charge of updating the website. We just do this blog deal. I would say the new shoes will be up sometime this month.
Marc - The Flik is not “fat”. It’s normal sized.

10/2/05 at 10:12Here’s some fun trivia about the Koston 3 ad pictured above. Eric wasn’t wearing Koston 3’s when he shot that photo. The art dudes (I think it was Ako Jefferson) had to photoshop the K3’s on Koston’s feet. They did I good job. You only really noticed it if you look hard enough. Take a look for yourself.
