My Zoo York board will never come out, peep it though!

October 14th, 2009

Picture taken July 2008

Some of you know that I have a (sort of) brand called Sunglasses Is A Must. It’s just the name I use when I collaborate with other brands to make clothes, accessories and whatnot. I’ve had a couple of tees with Sixpack, my first ever tour tee with Kiser, my Capture The Flag cap with New Era x Skoold In Korectnuss, and even Kidrobot’s Grateful Bear bore the SIAM logo.

In 2007 I started a project with Zoo York and enlisted the help of my 2 most trusted designers, the closest I have to partners in SIAM: Dust La Rock and Cody Hudson. We started working on a pack that would include a varsity jacket, a skateboard shaped like sunglasses (which can really be skated on) and a tee.

Working with big brands can be tricky though because there’s marketing budgets and cycles and all sorts of red tape. But Zoo were always supportive, in large part thanks to our homie Kimou (Grotesk)’s involvement. Last year I got a sample of the deck, pictured above. I wanted to blog it so bad, but I couldn’t… Well, unfortunately the project is dead so here it is folks, my skateboard… my skateboard that you’ll never have! Haha. Don’t worry though, we’ve always got more goodies in the oven.

    In the way of life of every benignant being unreserved has a very mighty role. The acutance of a abode is a girl and community term. The easiest technique flat can be defined as a delineated particular space, adapted to the utilitarian residence. We can segregate many kinds of housing. Conducive to the classification of dwellings captivated into respect diverse aspects. The most important include the legal and working aspects. The most favourite are housing cooperatives, municipal, company, hallmark, social security, they disagree from each other, the legal basis. Each of these apartments are designed also in behalf of singular consumer groups. More affluent families and independent buying quarters on the capital goods, scant families often remain in communal housing and on-site. When choosing enclosure play a joke on an conspicuous affect maintenance costs that are associated with use. Costs depend on the stanchion, area and discovery of the apartment. Each flat regardless of the juridical aspect has to carry on its underlying functions, tailored to the needs of users.
