Carhartt presents: Amicitia – ‘Skateboards by Friends’

Friendship is a beautiful thing. Thanks to Carhartt, it's the source of some beautiful skateboards too.

Amicitia is a 'friendship project' that sees three team riders hooking up with their closest art buddies to collaborate on three fresh signature skateboards.

In the perfect union of skill and style, each deck will combine the team riders' perfect deck with the artists' signature design.

Scott Bourne - who, according to some very reliable sources (i.e. us) will be gracing the cover of the next issue of HUCK - has teamed up with long-time buddy and lover-of-all-things-skeletal Jeremy Fish.

Germany's Jan Kliewer has enlisted the talent of his chum Stefan Marx. And Sweden's Daniel Hakansson has hooked up with his friend-of-choice Stefan Narancic.

The result is a trio of attractive wooden planks, complete with a suitably insightful and equally attractive art book featuring bios, photos, artwork and poetry.

A nice little collab. From a bunch of nice friends.
