Well made durable shoe. A bit less comfortable than some other "boarder" shoes I've worn.

Great Shoe! At first it takes a little while of getting used to, especially if you skate in vulc shoes before, but after getting used to them, you can pop tre's 2 feet high, and not think twice. They rip in about a month, but there's a layer of plastic underneath which is good. Go Buy this shoe!

This is a great skate shoe. There probably isn't a better shoe to skate in on the market. They're very comfortable, but the padded tongue looks like a mattress, it's so huge. With legs about 5 inches wide, I look like a funny in them.

I love this shoe -
I think that this shoe is very good looking and also very comfortable. The laces and shoe kind of rip after about 5 weeks but they are still a really good shoe. I'm on about my third pair.

Ridiculous!!
These shoes really are amazing. Something about the shape and design just make your tricks pop like crazy. First trick with these shoes was a Backside Flip off of a ledge, and I felt like I caught it 100 feet high!! They start to wear a little bit easier than expected, but a tube of $4 Shoe Goo will take care of that. Throw them in the microwave for 30 seconds when you take them out of the box, then they fit like a dream. The toe is a bit pointy at first, but then widens out a bit... DON'T HESITATE!!

Yea, this shoe is one of the best skate shoes I’ve ever had. I absolutely love skating in them. Plus they look gnarly. I definitely recommend these to any skater.

Accel review -
The eS Accel is the WORST skate shoe I think I’ve ever had. I’ve had 3 pairs because people tell me there so great, the skate really bad like they make my flip tricks feel like bad, I can not get used to them. And all the pairs I’ve had have been like destroyed in like 2 days. Not worth the money.

Best Skate shoe -
I had a pair of these back in the day and they were sick. I recently got another pair, but they were stolen. These take impact really well, and are padded as hell. Laces are gonna rip and so is the toe cap but that’s gonna happen on every shoe.
I’m skating Square One's now and I love those too!

Best shoes ever -
I've never owned a more comfortable, better skating shoe than the Accel. I've had a few pairs and will continue to skate/wear the Accel as long as I can. By far the best. It didn't take long for the shoe to break in and feel perfect but once its brand new it feels a bit small don't worry that solves itself after a day or two. Great wear with skating and comfy good looking too

These shoes are great for skating. The grip is great and the cushioning is also great. They ripped in the toe area in about 2 weeks but I shoe goo them and they keep lasting. The sole came out after 3 months of skating 3 to 4 hours a day. They would have lasted longer if the sole never came out, but great shoe. I highly recommend them.

Great right out of the box. I can now land heel flips with ease. The laces rip quickly, but other than that it is really good.

These shoes are alright.
This is a really simple shoe. Has a good grip, regular/normal comfort, good uppers, and a respectable all-around feel. These shoes are very simple but are great for walking around in. The cushioning doesn't last very long though.

The shoes I exchanged for this new pair are better fit by far, I purchase them for my grandson and have just received the Van's Classic that l ordered for my grand-daughter. Have been a Zappos customer for a while and thank you for making shopping for them so easy…

These shoes look and feel amazing. They are really comfortable, but they ripped extremely easily. I had the tan ones. After two months, I have made a hole where my toe sticks out. They are a great skate shoe though.

Awesome shoes -
Really good shoes. I got the brown reflective ones. After about a month with these shoes the suede on the front of the shoes tore but the plastic part of the toe cap held up really good. The shoes could have had a little more impact support. Also the laces on these rip really easily. But overall the shoe was very good.

Fred’s review -
These shoes are absolutely amazing. The toe cap rips a lil fast, but put some shoe goo on it and it’s the perfect shoe. Comfy, looks good, and pretty durable. Also absorbs impact well. I highly recommend these shoes.

The shoe is awesome. One of the most comfortable pairs I have bought. There's a lot of support and the inside is very comfortable. Grate skate shoe and will take a lot of wear and tear.

It’s ok -
This is shoe looks awesome, no doubt. But if you or your son/daughter skateboard a lot and get ruined shoes, I would avoid the suede ones. The suede shoes are awesome while they last, which is not long at all. But the leather ones last a little too long, they just start to suck and have no grip later on, but it lasts SO much longer than the others. Just buy Lakai, every shoe of theirs lasts 3 times longer than eS.
Other brands recommended by reviewer: Lakai/DVS or some Globes.

Honestly, Great Shoes!
Most of the reviews on this shoe have come from avid skateboarders. Now, I'm not a skate park junkie and my shoes really are more for everyday wear and comfort. I was really interested in the brown / tan pair of the Accels, and I did some thinking before I got them. I was wary about ordering them, but after wearing them for a good amount of time, I was incredibly satisfied! If you are looking for a comfortable, very nice looking pair of shoes, opt for these. Whether you're a skater or not, these shoes are awesome!

These shoes are GREAT. They are very comfy to walk in, but they could definitely do better against impact. They had great grip and flick. They were good for pretty much every trick. I had the navy/brown/white colorway.

Es Accel (cement) -
Two words, AWSOME SHOES. I own the cement colored ones which may not be sold on Zappos anymore. It's a shame if that’s the case because they were really great looking shoes and they were the only color I've seen made completely out of suede. Any pair of eS Accels you purchase will be outrageously comfy and the tread will last forever. It’s a bulkier shoe than it shows in the picture, but still skates excellent. 2 Thumbs up to eS shoe co.
Other brands recommended by reviewer: This one, eS Rodrigo, globes are alright, too.
