Let’s hope the spring line of shoes doesnt find their way into pacsun or journeys…

éS has found it’s way into my local Pacsun and Journeys and I am F@!#ing pissed. WHY IS ES BECOMING MAINSTREAM AND SELLING OUT! IT IS GOING TO RUIN ITS IMAGE!!!!! Sole Tech’s president and founder Pierre Andre Senizergues says in a semi-recent interview with Transworld Business, “We try and target different consumers and the people we hire match that. Distribution is another way the brands are different. Emerica and és are at ’core shops only, and etnies is at ’core, too, but also at secondary points of distribution like Pacific Sunwear.” (http://www.twsbiz.com/twbiz/profiles/article/0,21214,1114848,00.html) So tell me why es is in pacsun now? I’m sure at least 90% of the és fans out there don’t want és to sell out nor for his girlfriend to buy a pair at Journeys! TAKE éS OUT OF PACSUN AND JOURNEYS! “Emerica and éS are at ‘core shops only”

It is not serious if soletech is distributed at pacsun, because pacsun does not exist in France. ;)
and about the Spring 2006 éS Footwear, hum, hum…
worst line since 2005 one… compared to emerica’s 06 line, you’re going to loose some market part…
Antisocial : the best one
TX2 : not solid and techi, bring back the TX1
Laiden : tooooo bad, i love cradle/radle but laden, …
K6 hi : good but bad colors
standard/flik : Why fill you lack of creativity of your shoes by adding ugly colors or horrible design pattern ?
I worried about you’re future.
Ok kids want the PJLADD, but the name of the skater doesn’t make the shoes ! PJLadd are redundant and horrible.
please do a new mole for the EK-01 and bring them back, and hire a new designer !

man, heads needa chill out. so what if eS is in your local PacSun or Journeys. thats not selling out. thats just making their product more available. selling out would be changing their identity in order to sell something.

its being sold at pacsun so es can make more money. the more money es makes the more shoes and videos es will make

you people complain too much. who cares if es is at pacsun, they’re still at regular skateshops. and this is probably one of the best lineups they’ve had in a while

1/7/06 at 02:58

i couldn’t care less if es is sold in some mutha fuckin “pacsun”. In finland the market is so small that if the importer would sell skateboarding equipment only to skateshops they would go bankrupt, so shoes and decks and everything else is sold in sports shops and other fashion shops. ALTHOUGH you should support your nearest skate shop by buying your equipment from them, not from the sport shops who dont support skateboarding in any way. C’mon man let pacsun have és and let the faggots buy them from there. as long as the shoes work im ok with it.

Alex - Don’t know. Someone changed their mind. They are just hi top K6’s. 6.5 sounds like a software version not a shoe.

will somebody please answer if koston is going to lakai or not? cuz that sounds like something he would do to be with all his Girl(skateboards) friends. but thats just wrong to be with es from the beginning and to have the first pro model shoe and the best selling shoes. i respect lakai, you should always respect toher companies, but kostin going to lakai is just wrong

yeah tony! shut up! eS isn’t listening to you they don’t care whether or not you and a few other people don’t like the new stuff or whatever….eS is gonna do what there gonna do so accept that and if you can’t get over the fact that eS is changing than maybe you should just forget about eS..times are changing whether you down with it or not…and the rest of you whining about eS being sold in Pac Sun and Journeys deal with it…it used to bug me too but “posers” are gonna do what theyre gonna do…so yeah all of you stop whining about how you don’t like this or that if you don’t like i then get of the eS site and stop bugging Josh, Craig, and Garry

now that i’m done with that

nice job on the TX2 looks real nice reminds me of the DGk shoes which i think are beautiful…

nice job on the K6 hi…i like the white/lakers color

i really like the all black suede Fliks and the plaid accel plus’

but the new K7 colors are just WOW nice…

nice job you guys i’m not crazy about all the stuff you guys are putting out but I think 06 is gonna be a good year for you guys…

> Neubauer : Yeah i know that éS isn’t listening me ! They don’t care about us. and they don’t listening you too.
i think i’m not the only one not to love this 06 line. we’re not kid anymore, we know éS since ten years, and it’s difficult to see this evolution.

neubauer says:

1/9/06 at 12:18

if you know that eS isn’t listening to your whinny self than why do you continue to cry about every little move that eS makes? well eS is gonna evolve sooner or later like all things if they didn’t evolve how would they stay in busisness? off the few that like old techy shoe that skate like crap…maybe you should try some of the new eS’ instead of hating on them without even trying them…or maybe you should just move on from eS and find something new since eS can’t seem to do anything right in your eyes…

gravatar of eS blog commenter, ToNyXeS

ToNyXeS says:

1/9/06 at 01:26

You’re right neubaur, but i try some of the new éS and i not hating éS. I skate since 20 years, i wearing éS everyday since 10 years, and i just give you my opinion.
éS evolve, it’s a very good thing, but not in the good direction i think. (redundant shoes, lack of creativity,…)
My parents don’t pay my shoes anymore, and i don’t understand why i will buy RTX2 which are RTX1 light with the same colorway ? and you’re right again, i will move from éS, it’s the first time since 10 years, and i won’t buy éS this year, i will probably buy emerica instead which have a killer line for this spring 06 (McNally, Tilt2, Kirchart4…).

Sign off to skateboarding!

Hi I’m Richard, im 15 and i live in bristol, england… i’ve been skating since i was roughly 12 or so.

But recently i have realised, ive got too big! :’( i now have size 14uk (15us) feet and im nearly 6:3″ tall…
I got quite a fat head as well so apparently i now look top heavy and i snap a fair few decks….

However i would just like to thank all that skateboarding has given me over the years, it got me fit and gave me enjoyment….

Fear not és i’m still gonna try and cram my feet into the biggest size you do.. even if it isnt amazingly comfy wearing shoes a size 2 small (subtle hint for you to make the bigger sizes PLEASE… its horrible having big feet)

And know i’m not making excuses just so i can give up, recently i really have became useless!

Thanks for reading anyone who did!

Do you know what was the best es shoe? The Sal 23 with the rubber shield on the fat tongue, in tan. Nearest equivalent tan accels. Please please please bring back that colour. The brown/gum accels/plus available now make me look like I’m going hiking, and NOT frontside flipping over a funbox and landing on the flat.

My friend is 6′2′’ with size 13 shoes. Although he is pretty good at skateboarding. He has good tres and backside flips. He breaks a shit load of decks so recently he began buying canadian maple blank decks off of ebay. I liked them some much now that I order them. It ends up being like $12 bucks a deck instead of $50 plus grip.

some people don’t know what a vulcanized sole is so here what it is for those of you who don’t know. old skool Vans, the rowley classics, Dekline shun mids, the Reynolds 3, fallen chiefs, etc are all vulcanized and usually have a dimond tread pattern on the side of the shoe. they skate really well.
