Has to be an OLD photo.

There’s no way eS is putting “Muska” on the tongue unless they’re planning on paying him. Which I don’t think they’re planning to based on the fact they they removed all name recognition on old pro-models they re-issued.

they cant put koston on a shoe cause hes on nike

A good sign they’re getting paid is if they’re promoting it on their own IGs

Yes. Unfortunately it is.

It’s a hilarious idea for like your team members, but a weird thing to mass produce

[144p]

I never underestimate nostalgia and the emotional response to retail it can create.
That being said I’m sure this concept and execution was a swing and a miss.

Late to all this sole tech reissue talk but…

What’s up with the Creager and Muska reissue looking hella stubby? Especially compared to the original. I wouldn’t know, but they looked less skateable that way. Not that I care, I have no interest in either, just curious.

Kind of wish Es could do more for their riders, at least for Wade, Asta and Rogers. Although, I never see anyone wear Es at all. To do a big production like a pro shoe, and which tanks would just hurt the team as a whole I’d assume

I'm skating the Es Caspian now and they skate really well. Wish Es would do a more balance of simple/plain silhouettes. Still miss the square one's but maybe one day they'll be revived.

New Lakai

For some reason I really like how that cream/gum Lakai shoe looks.

Shoes were stubbier back then.   Muska definitely was sawed off.   I was shocked to look at an accel with 2020 eyes

I got Savier vibes from this shoe, I don't know who's the target for them but at least they have some personality.

i see that. It also reminds me of some of those early nike sb URL, E-cue, the BA pro model.

They look so much better here than the catalog photos that were posted a while back.

its kinda still just a shitty puig

[pugmaster]

The eS Arto shoe was marvelous. I have rose tinted glasses on that shoe as it was the one I got really into heavy skating and learning kick flips and such.

Loving the Muska and Creager with the darker colorways. Not into the grey colorways. I was hoping for a different colorway. I hope they re-release other color ways too. Same with the MJ/OG1. Not a chance I'd buy the skateshop day colorway unless I got on a decent discount so I could spray paint the bejesus out of them. For each of the colorways I like, I would easily cop 3 pairs.

[dumptruck12]

I keep seeing talk about the arto, is that coming back?

people have been posting sneak peeks on their insta stories, so I’m guessing it’s in the works. What’s seems even crazier is Circa seems to be doing a reissue of muska’s first shoe…

[jwdharris]

It's a mash up between the Accel and Arto btw.

No one noticed this the first time, so I'll post again...

[WideFeet]

Ok, so which profiles on IG are posting teaser photo’s? Seriously, people re seeing this no one of even providing a link?

I noticed it, but I didn’t know what I was supposed to do with it.   It’s been covered that was the template they worked from.

Apologies, I missed that. I was under the impression it went unnoticed. Anyway, back to shoe chat!

[GBLange]

pre-order is open. rm719 (usd162.28)..don't know what's the actual MSRP from ES

[.Blackshoes.]

$165 for the Muska? Man.. that's a tough pill to swallow.

[pugmaster]

where can one take a look at the es 2023 catalog?

I had the éS Arto shoes. From what I recall they weren’t all that different to Accels. Mad puffy too. Too much even for back then. I got them in 10.5 as the 11 was already sold out. The shoe was mad popular here in Finland. First ever pro shoe for a Finnish guy. I figured they’d break in and be fine but no, they were just too small and I had to get rid of them eventually.  :'(

Funny thing is now I’m skating mostly 10.5 and some shoes I could probably even go with size 10. Not sure what happened. Did my feet shrink or has the sizing of shoes changed over the years? 

[close]

Harri Puupponen Sykum pro model also came out in 2002 but can't recall which one was released first. Not that you ever saw a single pair of those in the wild, tho...

Not to mention a Finnish flag on the sole.    I loooooved that shoe and it was pretty perfect.   A wee bit bigger/puffier than the accel, but it wasn’t a gigantic version like appleyards pro shoe was with the circa model that inspired it

[close]

Remember seeing the flag and thinking "Oh. Isn't that what the dudes in buzz cuts wear on their bomber jacket sleeves?". Rural nationalism hits different.

Creagers lasted forever but the sole on the Muskas blew out in a month. Getting hung up on the thickness of an embroidered logo is really funny.

Had a pair… for sure not the greatest pair of shoes I ever owned

[Atiba Applebum]

All suede instead of plastic
