Inspired by the FUN and FREEDOM felt when skating among friends and supporting your local community:
Emily designed, developed, and tested pants for skateboarding that adapt and evolve with YOU as you skate. Eager to empower individuals to be confident in their clothing while skateboarding, these pants encourage you to fully commit and send it, because the harder you shred, the more unique your pants become. Similar to a fresh new deck, the more you skate it, the more the graphic changes - it becomes scrapped and shredded, maybe you add stickers to it or DIY grip tape - your board evolves with you, and now your pants can too.
Handmade from 100% Repurposed Fabrics, including t-shirts from various skate brands that have already been skated in and transformed into new textiles.
FLEXIBLE FIT for maximum range of motion so nothing can hold you back.
Made to adapt with you as you ride, as well as evolve and change, just as you do overtime.
This project originally debuted at the Skateboard Inspired Art Show at Fargo Skateboarding on February 25th, 2023 and an UPDATED version of this project is currently on display at Fargo Skateboarding for their 17th Annual Skateboard Inspired Art Show on March 2nd, 2024.
