Europeans! Frisco, out in Arnhem, The Netherlands, now has QS tees online and in-store. (We’re about to sell out of white larges on our web store, by the way.)
The Shape of Things to Come podcast has a new episode up with the governor of New Jersey, Fred Gall.

Here’s a sad photographic study of the latest T.F. box’s (“The Labor Box”) final days.
Jonathan Mehring posted up some scenic photos on the Skateboarder website from a 2006 article about spots on the New York waterfront. That Joey Pepper 5050 is nuts.
Check out this documentary about Todd Fishman, the truest of OG New York skaters. “Put your work in” and watch out for those pigeons.
This kid Derm has a sick part full of crusty New Jersey spots and an early, pre-Illmatic Nas song (things get scary in the last thirty seconds though.) The comments are bound to be full of “Where’s that spot at?” questions.
Did you guys see the Palace x Fruit of the Loom collaboration? The tees are already going for $200 on the Bay.

Is it true you cant skate Heaven 5 block anymore????
Derm is the fucking man
Derm part was crustier than a punk show
Girls is acurately trashy 20 something candy. That scene with marnie at the end really topped it off. Also, im digging Shosh and Ray’s awkward relationship, itll probably end up being the most stable in the show. The drunk gay boyfriend made a great albeit obvious comment contrasting two generations of new yorkers, really set the tone of what they’re going for this season.
but is it the voice of a generation?
Yes
Also, sidndey lumet’s strip search > zero dark thirty
man that kid Derm is already setting some #TRENDWATCH2014
Derm part was sick, new Girls was boring
I like that chunky butt in the last scene
Can we also talk about the questionable quality of juelz santana’s latest offering? Dude used to have his own style but now he sounds like every other dweeb riding the trap beat wave. Heatmakerz; where are thee?
