New Decks

By Mike Giant

I set some new decks up last week.

Ever since I visited my first skateboard shop (in San Diego in 1983) I’ve wanted one of these Sims Christian Hosoi pro models. The graphics were designed by Bernie Tostenson, who also designed and printed all the boards for Brand-X, another favorite brand when I was a teenager. I wanted one of those “Possessed to Skate” decks since they were released in 1985, but I didn’t think it would fly too well with my Catholic mom. But now that I’m 40 years old, I don’t think she’ll mind if I ride for Satan. My homie at Scumco & Sons hooked me up with the “Skee-Skate”. Can’t wait to try it out next time I hit the skatepark. And I had to get another Alva Leopard because my last one got taken out by a bus. Skateboards come and go…

Thanks for ordering so much stuff over the weekend!

I Suck

By Joshy D.

My apologies for the awful non-blogging. Some day I hope REBEL8 is more than just a few of us so I can spend a lot more time being “social”. I’ll try and blog it up soon, but for now, I think we are all better off with me shipping your orders. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Frisco

By Joshy D.

Not sure if you know this, but I’m a real San Franciscan. Born ‘n bred in the City by the Bay. No suburbs for me. Real city situations.

I want to thank you for the amazing support you’ve shown us over this Black Friday into Cyber Monday. Please go easy on Ricky in customer service. He is chain smoking trying to get through it. We are shipping as fast as we can.

And with that said, here is some of that new-new shit. From left-to-right, we got the LOGO ORANGE/BLACK Mens TeeLOGO ORANGE/BLACK New Era, and the LOGO RED/GOLD Mens Tee. As a special offer, valid until 12/11/2011, use discount code “Frisco” when checking out and you’ll get free FedEx shipping. Sorry this offer is only valid for our US customers. And let me repeat, you must use the discount code when checking out to get free shipping. Don’t holler at customer service later bitching about how it didn’t work or you forgot. It works, don’t forget.

Frisco!

La Vida Buena

By Joshy D.

THE GOOD LIFE Mens Jersey is one of our favorite jersey offerings this Winter. It’s a remix of Mike Giant’s Stay Gold tattoo shop tee from many years ago back when he lived/worked in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

THE GOOD LIFE Mens Tee is also an available option of this classic Mike Giant illustration.

And never count out the snapback. Available in raw denim with black mesh, or black twill.

Happy shopping!
