British illustrator Jon Horner has laced out a series of Cliché skateboard decks, the theme of which applies Horner’s well known “Where’s Waldo” treatment to stars in skating culture. Pros like Joey Brezinski, JB Gillet and Sammy Winter hide cleverly in the graphics for the French decks, challenging you to find (and guess) all the possible characters. Boards measure in […]

In celebration of just-passsed “Go Skateboarding Day” comes this collaboration between Portland outdoor-gear company Poler and the Nike Zoom Air Verona SB. The black upper features a leather side panel embossed with the Poler logo, and a suede toecap in this slip-on style. White rubber sole with gum wave tread.

Mark Flood of Peres Projects has joined forces with Supreme NYC for a line of skateboard decks that carry the subversive, slightly macabre, visible edge of wit for which the Houston artist is known. The deck is basic black on its top, with Flood’s messages splattered on the bottom. Check stores in NYC, LA or the […]

Boom-Art is already known for putting beautiful ladies on skateboard decks. From 1970s Pin-Up Girls and Snow White Gangbangs to Gardens Of Earthly Delights, Boom-Art has this time moved onto a far more refined dame: La Dame à la Licorne (aka The Lady & the Unicorn). To capture the heavy detail from the classic work of French medieval art, the tapestry had to be […]

A New York union is complete. NYC-bred Hopps Skateboards is gracing the face of two photo-printed decks with the work of Ricky Powell, a man celebrated as one of New York’s top street photographers (and alleged Beastie Boys towel-thrower). Of course Powell is no novice to the world of collaborations, as you may recall his awesome Rakim, Public Enemy and […]

Dutch artist Parra knows that we suck, so he has applied his iconic artwork to his new venture Tired Skateboards — a brand giving props to all you (us) aging skaters. To all the stubborn graybeards who end a session by putting down a half pack of cigarettes, or who prefer to think of a nosegrind as a Friday […]

It’s been 20 years now since Supreme first became the brand to represent New York’s grimy-yet-swag take on skate culture. Since April of 1994 on Lafayette Street in NYC, Supreme has become a go-to brand in streetwear, from NYC to any closet pretty much anywhere. To celebrate the brand’s longevity, Supreme has revisited its original concepts […]

It ain’t all that long ago the skateboard got upgraded from a wooden plank strapped to rollerskate wheels to an artistically rendered board of layered fiber glass and wood, set atop the newly improved urethane wheel that was functionality at its street-thrashing finest. Things have changed. Now, your inner Z-boy can roll around with Black […]
