Thrasher Hoodies – Capsul



Thrasher Magazine was established by Eric Swenson and Fausto Vitello in San Francisco, 1981. They originally founded it to promote their independent skate truck brand. They used it to market their riders and products, while glorifying the finer aspects of skating. It went on to represent a sense of rebellion. It stood for raw, uncensored skateboarding. Over the years they covered anything that fell within their skateboarding demographic through music, stories and articles. The magazine had a huge part in evolving skateboarding from pure sport to a manifestation of street culture.

The logo was easily recognisable and hugely popular, with other styles like the skategoat graphic and the ‘Skate or Die’, ‘Skate and Destroy’ quotes coming into the mix. The iterations included moving away from the initial font, to other emblem versions of the logo.

With the concept of streetwear becoming popular, it boded well for Thrasher as they explored various other business interests. They had a loyal following which grew exponentially as newer product lines were introduced. With features in several other magazines, celebrities donning the famous Thrasher hoodies and t-shirts, it became a household name with a cult-like following.

But we are living for the Stussy Summer collection, which accurately represents the free spirit of Laguna Beach conjuring up images of sun, sand and gnarly waves. Despite the monsoon gloom, Stussy’s SS20 collection manages to remind us of everything we love about summer, especially the Pigment Dyed Tees in their pastel colours and bright prints.

One of the standout pieces of this collection is the Bloom Tee. Along with a really cool graphic featuring text in the classic Stussy style this tee also features almost every Stussy logo on the back- Double S, the crown, 8 Ball, Dice and of course the iconic signature. Another favourite is the High Desert Tee, with images of desert mountains, cactii and campfires. But what makes these tees unique is that they are Pigment Dyed. These tees are individually dyed one piece at a time, which results in the colours looking a little different in each piece making them truly one of a kind.
