éS shoes makes a comeback
All of the new éS range can be found here.
When the production of éS shoes slowed down to a halt back in 2001 it sent a shiver down the spine of many skateboarders who 100% back skater owned companies. The changing times forced Soletech to put the brand on ice and concentrate on Emerica and Etnies but it looks like there could be light at the tunnel for one of the most prestigious footwear brands in skateboarding.
It was welcome news this week to see that éS have relaunched this year, even if for now, only in Japan. The classic Accel shoe will be available out there following a presence at the Interstyle tradeshow which we guess could be a test to see if the skateboard scene has a desire to wish it back on their feet. We can only hope that this becomes a reality and also that the current generation of new skateboarders realise just how important it is to back skater owned companies. Watch this space.

Over Ply Wood teaser
Jono Atkinson has been woring hard on the Over Ply Wood documentary covering the history of skateboarding in Swansea, Wales. It’s almost there, and when it’s ready we will bring you the full film, but for now, press play on the latest teaser to see what’s coming.
London awaits the work of the one and only Haroshi, the Japanese designer who crafts incredible works from old skateboard wood.
His first solo exhibition titled ‘Pain’ will reveal a new body of work which examines the effects of emotional pain, and how it can be a great motivating force in the creation of art. Haroshi, has been exploring this difficult concept in his new series of work by harnessing and repurposing painful experiences in the same way that he recycles disused objects as beautifully handcrafted sculptures. Using hundreds of disused decks in the process, each artwork is exquisitely imaginative, created with the highest level of ingenuity, impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail, calling into question ‘what is pain?’and ‘why does it exist?’
‘Pain’ is sure to be one of the most unique exhibitions of sculptural work you have ever seen running at Stolen Space Gallery at 17 Osborn Street, London, E1 6TD between the 10th October to 3rd November. Don’t miss it.
