To celebrate Accel Day, the Accel Kevlar is limited to 300 individually numbered pairs.

Every year on May 19, 5/19 becomes éS - the fifth and nineteenth letters of the alphabet - a simple idea that grew into a moment to celebrate the Accel and what it represents. Within this run, two numbers carry special meaning. The skaters who receive pair 5 and pair 19 will be invited into a one-of-a-kind Accel Day experience: a private video call with the éS team, alongside a rare, one-off piece from the éS archive. These experiences can not be bought - they exist solely to honour Accel Day.

We proudly present to you the Accel Kevlar.

For decades, the Accel has been beloved and destroyed by some of the most talented and stylish skateboarders in the world. A cornerstone of the éS line, the Accel Kevlar builds on that legacy by reinforcing with DuPont™ Kevlar® fiber, adding a new level of durability without changing the look, feel, or skateability that defines the original. The silhouette, padding, and fit remain rooted in the 1995 design — now backed by modern material innovation for skaters who put their shoes through it. This is the classic Accel, dialled for durability.
