who is actually buying eS that also remembers when they weren't corny?
it must be crazy when chico sells you something and the tables switch from "give me my money chico" to "giving my money to chico"
Wish eS would make some of their vulcs again
Or black/grey again
Tate is one of the best posters that's not me
Emerica TM, how's the fit for those new Gammas? Some models like the Reynolds G6 my typical 9.5 is unbearably tight but any vulc model was fine in that size. Would I have to go with my regular size or go up half a size?

It was serviceable, but maybe not worthy of a reissue. The Theory, on the other hand. Holy shit, sign me up.If éS can bring back its classic cupsoles, there's no reason not to bring back some vulcs!

It flopped out and became so flimsy after the first trick, but as a flimsy vulc lover it was the best. I used to work at a skate shop and stole so many pairs of the checkered laces they came with.

I can’t name one ska band and I had those...Edit: Did some Googling, I have indeed heard of the name “Reel Big Fish” and was aware there was (is?) a band named the “Mighty Mighty Boss Stones.”

And that plaid design is def something I could see being that way.

A vulc accel would be great like how they used to have, or just some simple accel slim colorways would be good, nothing crazy

Their shoes and team were great in their later years and they were honestly one of my favorite brands. It's hard watching what a shell of its former self it has become.
