$ 34.00

  • Product Description

“While I know a lot of you are just here for camp shirts, block prints and handlooms, it’s important that you understand just how important this drop is to the foundation of this brand.

I saw my first Transworld in ‘95 and fell completely and utterly in love with skateboarding. Over the next few years, I scrambled home after school each month, hoping that the new issue would be waiting for me. When it was, I scanned and memorized every damned page. It’s ads were my initial exposure to innovative design and impactful, evocative photography. DC, Droors, Alphanumeric and - of course - Metropolitan. The products and images Damon Way, Alyasha Owerka-Moore and Ari Marcopoulos created during my formative years have been my most substantial reference point, throughout the entirety of my career. That hasn’t always been outwardly apparent (I would never put a model in a suit and tie on a skateboard) but if you look back, check the colors and silhouettes. Shit, the shoot locations. It’s all there.

18 East has been the first opportunity I’ve had to actively - and genuinely - incorporate the thing that has most shaped my aesthetics into my work. With that said, STRICTLY ROOTS pays homage to the people and places that got us here, whether they - or you - knew it or not.

A big thanks to some of Philadelphia’s finest as well for jumping in here and helping us covey the message. Watching them reminds me of why I started, and why I’m still sparked to do this, every single day.” - The Management
