As summer rolls on so does the influx of new stuff coming into the shop. Today we just received two new colorways of CONS pro models from Nick Trapasso and my personal favorite Anthony Pappalardo.

You can’t go wrong with either of these awesome shoes.
Along with the CONS above, we also received all-new hardgoods from Kayo Corp and apparel from Altamont. All Kayo brands are pro skater owned and operated with DGK being run by Stevie Williams, Organika run by Karl Watson, and ExpeditionOne run by Chany Jeanguenin, all of whom have been pro and paid their dues many times over. Kayo produces quality goods that we believe in here at the shop. All new Altamont apparel is perfect for the summer weather. As always thank you for supporting a skater owned & operated shop.
