Originally released in 1998, the éS Two Nine 8 quickly became a standout of its era, defined by a bold silhouette and dependable skate performance. It was a shoe that captured the direction of late-’90s skateboarding, balancing style, durability, and function in equal measure.

This modern reissue stays true to the original design while refining the construction for today’s skating. The Two Nine 8 maintains its distinctive profile, delivering a stable, supportive feel with the responsiveness needed for both technical skating and bigger terrain.

Built to handle demanding sessions, the shoe offers a balance of protection and comfort without unnecessary bulk. Its structure supports long days on the board while preserving the control and boardfeel that made the original a favorite.

A late-’90s icon, reintroduced with purpose. The éS Two Nine 8 stands as a reminder of an era when design and performance evolved together — and still holds its place in modern skateboarding.
