One of the most important skate artists of all time, as well as two-times Supreme partner, and forever FNG’s fav, Sean Cliver is launching his very first and very own skate company: Paisley Skates. And everything seems good:
From the outset, our goal was to recreate some of that “early 90s” vibe we loved about skateboarding—the spirit, the shapes, the hand-screened application of graphics versus heat transfers—mix it up with a counterculture influence, and provide artists with a platform and the means to produce defining work. Sounds like skateboards for skate nerds, I guess, but we didn’t want to just make “wall hangers.” We wanted to make fully-functional, quality boards, and we were fortunate in that Paul Schmitt was willing to take us on as a customer.
See the first offerings (2 decks along with some t-shirts and stickers) on the Paisley Skates online store. For more informations read this new Cliver interview by Anthony Pappalardo for Vice’s The Creators Project.
