In 1995 Etnies decided to start a subsidiary with only their top professionals on the team. The company was named éS and success was instant. Apart from the fantastic skateboarders éS has also created many milestones in skate shoe technology and among many other inventions éS released the very first gas-cushioned skateboard shoe. The devastatingly good team of éS is presently Rick McCrank, Rodrigo Teixeira, Justin Eldrige, Bobby Worrest, Danny Garcia, Kellen James, Mike Anderson and John Rattray. www.esfootwear.com
