HUF x MAKIA

As teenagers in the early ’90s, skateboarding was just becoming a permanent fixture in Scandinavian street scene. All things related to it, were new pages in our book as the days consisted of all day skate missions exploring what our Nordic capital of Helsinki had to offer for our new found love. Thrasher was available from one bookstore in the city and new gear had to be ordered through mailorder by a cash envelope and good fortune. Those days created the foundation for our latter lives and led us up to having the courage of starting our own clothing label. Thank you for the inspiration Keith Hufnagel and other pioneers of the streets.
