The worlds of Baltimore-raised, Philadelphia-based pro skateboarder Jimmy McDonald have collided with this new collaborative project that pairs together his shoe sponsor éS and his board sponsor 5Boro. The two sides worked on a small footwear and apparel collection, featuring Jimmy's preferred skate silhouette of the moment, the éS Square Two fusion.
McDonald's shoe sports a premium grey suede base with black working the laces, tongue badge, inner liner and heel tab. White takes care of the upper eyelets, co-branding on the tongue and footbed and éS embroidery on the heel. Supporting the ride below is a sturdy gum rubber outsole.
Along with the shoe, éS has released a matching 5Boro Connect t-shirt in black. Both pieces are available now at éS and select skate retailers.
