Decks are a loss leader for the apparel companies that we call board brands. If people don’t buy the Ts then they’ll have to start charging realistic prices for decks, which I’d rather not pay.

Here skate shirts cost about ¥6000 The Bomb hills not countries GX1000 hoodie cost almost ¥20000. It's atrocious.

The best part is the tag comes pre-cut off... 99% chance it's a 2$ Gildan shirt lol

Dylan Jaeb was a better fit on Zero over Primitive.
I like Elijah Berle. I have a few complaints- fake steez, swongo, but when he has a new part out I’m stoked to see what stuff he does. He charges stuff, it’s pretty rad.
You’re a Florida native, aren’t you?
