For the Love of Skateboarding
Forties Original was a clothing brand out of Deluxe spearheaded by Mr. Cornhole (aka TG) in the early/ mid 90’s. Basic attire, skate inspired goods for the everyday.
The garments were cut and sewn in SF and Oakland – when you could still buy a burrito for under $5.
I hand delivered all the bolts of fabric and parts (zippers/buttons/rivets, etc.) in our old Astro van that smelled like teen spirit after a heavy session and 6 too many. Ahh the good ol’ daze.

The Atlas crew, headed up by Ryen and Mike, have built a community around their shop for over a decade. They are the benchmark for how much a shop can do for their local scene and others. They recently logged a few hours at The Office for some casual ripping and good times. Thank you Mike, Ryen and the whole Atlas crew for all you do.
If you were ever looking for that day when the clouds to heaven open up and the skate god look down upon you today is that day. Spitfire Wheels in conjunction with Metro is giving you the chance to win a year sponsorship and all you have to do is insta-vid your best tricks and hashtag #AYARTOBURN for a chance.
