eS Edgar Skate Shoes Review - Tactics.com

[donthateonsk8]

hey benson these or janoskis or g codes which lasts longer

[ankisfly1212]

They have no grip at all

[tacticsboardshop]

@ankisfly1212 are you joking? These shoes have plenty grip

[L3opardstr1p3s]

This shoe is fucking amazing! if you don't have a pair go buy yourself one now before they go out of business.

[tacticsboardshop]

@L3opardstr1p3s truer words have rarely been spoken before.

[hekkahyphy]

Bought three pairs of these

[veesterful]

Umm benson maybe you should say to get a half size bigger because your real shoe size in these shoes REALLY REALLY hurt XD. Super hard to break in.

[tacticsboardshop]

@veesterful it's true the forefoot is a little tight if you get your normal size, but after a while, mine broke in felt fine. I'll take a little soreness for shoes that fit perfect down the road then shoes that are too big and feel fine out of the box.

[TheKvarg]

@jordancurry123456789 I meant so I know what they look like skated

[TheKvarg]

@jordancurry123456789 please upload the review I wanna see what the shoe looks likskated

[TheKvarg]

if someone has pair that's been skate please post a review I have a pair but I don't wanna skate them if they're not worth ruining

[tacticsboardshop]

@TheKvarg No, definitely skate the Edgars. Between these and the Square Twos, they're such a good shoe. Unless you really like the way they look and don't want to ruin them cause éS is going out of business...

[TheKvarg]

if someone has a pair that's been skated please post a review I have a pair but I'm scared to skate them if they aren't worth ruining

[jordancurry123456789]

@TheKvarg i'll upload a review. but i'm telling you; these shoes are the best. i skated them straight out the box, and that was about 4-5 months ago and i'm still skating them. these shoes last forever i swear. and just to let you know; its the regular suede layer, plastic, then more suede. but by then, your sole will be blown out probably. but just msg me if you want the review because theres alot more to say about the shoe.

[osirishoes3]

@tacticsboardshop Hey Benson, As for as a really solid skate shoe that has lots of padding but you can still feel, which would you prefer the First Blood or The Ecosse?

[tacticsboardshop]

@osirishoes3 Bobby's newer shoe The Edgar

[jackskillo]

yes that top of the right foot when i walk forward it really hurts, its weird because there is nothing wrong with the left foot at all, any idea how long it took for the to break in man i wanna skate them but cant because they hurt been skating them for like 2 weeks as well

[tacticsboardshop]

@jackskillo oh man, if it's been two weeks of skating, it's probably not going to break in much more.

[jackskillo]

possibly the worst skate shoe i have ever bought, they are so uncomfy for some reason and they hurt my feet.

[tacticsboardshop]

@jackskillo you talking about the top of the foot, right? It definitely was awkward/uncomfortable at first, but my shoes broke in just fine. I love the way they skate. -Benson

[djaftermidnight]

edgar or square two fusion?

[tacticsboardshop]

@djaftermidnight both.

[Jarradthegoonboy]

I have a pair, they rock

[294ongaurd]

These seem like the etnies malto ls, they both have the dttf insole and the one peice toecap. Just my style shoe, great review.

[michaellaguerre]

Es Edgar or Janoski's

Edgar is double wrapped so it seems like it would last longer - what do you think Benson?

[iwannagosurfing139]

i was comparing your prices to ccs. and they are wayyy cheaper. ccs sucks. tactics all the way for cheapness

[tacticsboardshop]

@iwannagosurfing139 wait, so we're cheaper than CCS or they're cheaper than us? Also, we can match any price out there, so if you see something on any other site and it's cheaper than what Tactics advertises, we can match the price and ship your item the next day.

[iwannagosurfing139]

@tacticsboardshop ya'll are cheaper than ccs.

[tacticsboardshop]

@iwannagosurfing139 sweet!

[DefendTheHouseZ]

Es Is going out of business?

[tacticsboardshop]

@DefendTheHouseZ "creative hiatus" is the term they used.

[NewGeneration010]

benson- isn't eS going out of business? if so when? also should i get these or lakai manchester selects

[tacticsboardshop]

@NewGeneration010 éS will stop making shoes after spring 2012. In the mean time, you should get the Edgars or Square Two Fusions before you can't any more. -Benson

[kimchipowered]

just ordered the last grey edgars on amazon for my size!

[LakotaDrummer666]

I am gonna miss eS shoes.. I wanna skate the Square two's and the edgar shoe..

[poopeyzi]

i have a pair and they were to small so i skated them without the insole and omg i feel like im skating in socks hahaha but yeah becareful cause it really is thin without it and even landing primos on flat will hurt your feet

[tacticsboardshop]

@poopeyzi that's because there's no midsole. All the protection comes from the insole so if you take that out, it's just the outsole, which is basically a thin piece of rubber.

[SnipingWithYourMom]

These look like the malto ls...and I had the problem with the toe cap too at the beginning ...so it seems like they are the same thing

[tacticsboardshop]

@SnipingWithYourMom I have both shoes and I can see the similarities, but the Malto LS definitely isn't as bulky as this shoe. My feet feel better protected in the Edgar. I'm actually wearing mine right now... -Benson

[SteveTheUnicorn]

can't wait for Sean Maltos first pro model on Adidas

[americanmisfit1]

@SteveTheUnicorn wtf, are u retarded. hes on etnies and he just got a new pro model

[tacticsboardshop]

@americanmisfit1 Malto's actually going to be skating Adidas in a couple months...

[jordancurry123456789]

so; is e'S out of business for good? or are they just taking a break then returning? please reply.

[tacticsboardshop]

@jordancurry123456789 "creative hiatus" is the term they used...whatever that means.

[ORSTRALIAN]

Great shoe, except the toe cap is a bit of a cunt to wear in, sore toes for a first few days, especially my pushing foot.

[tacticsboardshop]

@ORSTRALIAN Yeah, I had that same problem too. It was really tight over the forefoot, but the shoe broke in and felt just fine after a couple sessions. -Benson

[Fukwitmedoh]

@ORSTRALIAN today was the first day skating them and i ddnt have any problems execpt for like 5 minutes idk

[deathmail255]

are they available on wiidth?

[bmxskater987]

i got these and they skate so good

[deathmail255]

[Unsponsored72]

Just got my new es skate shoes mad good

[bmxskater987]

[sk8terboy10100]

es are one of the best skate shoes, how are they going out of buisness?

[EnterKrooked]

Whats happening with e'S footwear?!?!?

[tacticsboardshop]

@EnterKrooked going on "creative hiatus", check the slap forums or search the internets and you'll find out.

[EnterKrooked]

@tacticsboardshop Cheers man i will

[americanmisfit1]

now i cant get mike andersons pro model

[tacticsboardshop]

@americanmisfit1 éS will still release their spring 2012 line, so they should be available before they go on their "creative hiatus".

[Ogeesman]

Skateboarding always starts with eS

[Jektorx2187]

@Ogeesman clever

[1685mark]

re'St in peace.

[tacticsboardshop]

@1685mark HA best e'S related comment so far.

[LGRegulator]

i bet i know what your favorite color is........ haha

[zeppelinhead1]

Benson, can you believe that es has gone out of business?!

[SkateForFun607]

What exactly happened to eS? Out of business or what?

[1mrlurker]

hows the grip hold up on these does it go bald super fast?

[crest182]

@tacticsboardshop how long do these take to break in? ill probably get them anyway but i wanna know if i can skate them right away or just wear them around for a couple days and then skate them

[tacticsboardshop]

@crest182 a couple days. Mine felt really tight at first, but after a couple days of skating, they felt super good. -Benson

[omgjuliansonthetube]

@crest182 microwave them 30 seconds taht should be enough but if not after you do walk like 50 feet then microwave them another 30 and they feel like theyve been skated in for a month they feel so comfy but a little narrow.

[tacticsboardshop]

@omgjuliansonthetube @crest182 We do not officially recommend microwaving your shoes. But we unofficially think you should do it and make a youtube video.

[omgjuliansonthetube]

@tacticsboardshop hahaha ill post a video response on this video next time i do it xD

[AirwaySkating]

Hey Benson, does this shoe use fusion tech?

[tacticsboardshop]

@AirwaySkating no.

[AirwaySkating]

@tacticsboardshop Well i just bought this shoe. Do you think The eS square 2 fusions would have been a better buy?

[tacticsboardshop]

@AirwaySkating no, they're both good shoes.

[ELBRENDITTO]

These or Square Twos?

[BryceTouchstone]

what shes would you recommend. the edgars or the theory 2.0??

[americanmisfit1]

benson- do these shoes run big

[tacticsboardshop]

@americanmisfit1 no, but they'll feel tight around the forefoot the first couple times you wear them, but they break in and feel so good after that. -Benson

[tacticsboardshop]

@gmendez125 damn, that's a tough one, they're both good shoes. Get these, then get the Busenitz. -Benson

[manny8312]

dude i got these today and they feel awful on my feet and you cant feel the board and they feel super bolky :/ and the nose of the shoe is really tight on your toes and dont expact it to give you any hit support if your board hits you your done ive skated them all day and i havnt broken them in at all. over all if you skate dont buy this shoe but if you dont it looks good but feels stuffy but again it looks good :)

[tacticsboardshop]

@manny8312 huh?! I'm skating a pair and Tactics' team rider and éS rep flow rider Nick Propios has them and loves them. Did you get the right size? I had similar problems with tightness on top of my foot, but I skated them and they broke in. Give it some time cause these shoes are super good. -Benson.

[RadicalPriests]

@manny8312 i have these they are amazing

[1mrlurker]

@RadicalPriests how are they holding up, i like the shoe im just a little weary of the grip its seems like it were through really easily.

[alecwha]

he said they're going to be released in the fall but i already saw them on zappos.com

[tacticsboardshop]

@alecwha yeah, we got 'em too.

[joshtsanders]

how long do they last? if u skate on a regular basis

[tacticsboardshop]

@joshtsanders 13.4539887 weeks.

[Phoen1xfilms15]

[NateWhite09]

[EnjoiLife365]

[americanmisfit1]

benson- what shoes are u skating

[tacticsboardshop]

@americanmisfit1 Emerica Trenton or eS Square Two.

[americanmisfit1]

@tacticsboardshop are u gonna review the trenton

[tacticsboardshop]

@americanmisfit1 I guess I could, but the shoe buyer and marketing manager want to see reviews of shoes we actually sell...so it might never get posted. Maybe I'll do a personal one on my own time... -Benson

[americanmisfit1]

@tacticsboardshop ok that would be cool
