Calling all kaiju fans and shred enthusiasts! Brace yourselves for an epic collaboration between the undisputed King of the Monsters, Godzilla, and the legendary skateboard brand Santa Cruz. This November, in honor of Godzilla’s 70th anniversary, a limited-edition line of skate decks and apparel explodes onto the scene, promising bold graphics and a monster-sized celebration.
More Than Just a Board, It’s a Beast:
Santa Cruz is renowned for pushing boundaries in their pop-culture collaborations. This Godzilla line is no exception. They’re unleashing eight unique skateboard deck designs, including a colossal 11″ x 32″ board – the largest they’ve ever created. This behemoth even boasts a unique shape reminiscent of Godzilla’s textured skin, making it a true collector’s item.
Legendary Artists Reimagine the King:
The collaboration doesn’t stop at size. Santa Cruz recruited some of their top artists to reimagine the classic graphics, Corey O’Brien, Tom Knox, Rob Roskopp, and Natas Kaupas, originally designed by Jim Phillips. These iconic styles are reinterpreted to showcase various iterations of Godzilla throughout his decades-long reign. The collection features the King from from the terrifying Shin Godzilla to the metallic might of Mechagodzilla. Each deck promises a unique vision of the legendary kaiju.
Beyond the Board: Apparel and More:
This epic collab isn’t just about shredding. The collection expands with a selection of apparel, including t-shirts, hats, and hoodies, all featuring the stunning deck artwork. Fans can also snag a sticker pack, giving them the power to Godzilla-fy any surface.
Mark Your Calendars and Prepare to Roar:
The full Godzilla x Santa Cruz line hits retail in November 2024, just in time to celebrate both Godzilla’s 70th anniversary and the annual Godzilla Day festivities. This is more than just a collaboration; it’s a tribute to a pop culture titan and a chance to own a piece of monster-sized awesomeness. Don’t miss your chance to share with the King of the Monsters this November!
