Escapist Skateboarding

"Great time there to day 3/11/24. Boigjt my first skate board. I'm 46 BJJ black belt that loves to try new thing. The guy who helped me was great."

"Was in KC for a business trip and being a skateboarder and a fan Girl/ Chocolate my whole life; this was an awesome place to visit. Pretty sure Dan Askew was the one working the counter too. Shop was very clean and organized. Would definitely be here more if I was local. They also carry Jerry’s brand Sci-Fi which is awesome. Picked up Kansas City chocolate chunk t shirt and will definitely visit when I’m in KC again!"

"I came in here a few days ago. It was great. Awesome customer service and friendly people all around. Just was wondering if there was any possibility you guys could carry more Lakai shoes specifically Telford Lows, Telford Highs, and Atlantics."

"ANOTHA ONE {DJ KHALED VOICE!!!!} " If you aren't supporting Missouri's premier skate shop, you're slipping and should seek help immediately. I live pretty far from here, but their website is awesome. The customer support is a 10/10, they ship fast, and have a great selection of items online at great prices. Had a minor issue with some preordered shoes that came in late (out of their control) and they provided incredible service when I asked about it. Shout out to Dan & the whole escapist crew, I appreciate you!"

"Been shopping at Escapist since 2007. Still the best place in KC to get anything and everything skateboarding. They always have the most recent released products and at a great price. Customer service is always top notch too.-shout out Dan and Brian for always being so helpful and knowledgeable! Escapist also does a ton for the skateboarding community in Kansas City so support your local skate shops and go check them out. 10/10 recommend!"
