Acapulco Gold Goes To Washington: The Video

29 July 2009, 02.40 | Posted in Skateboarding | No comments »

Acapulco Gold | AG Goes To DC Video
A little while back, our friends at Acapulco Gold went to the White House in Washington, DC to play a game of S.K.A.T.E. Today they released a video of the event. Sit back, relax and enjoy.

“Here is an idea for you – What if we get a permit to skate in front of the White House? I don’t mean get your friends together and skate by the White House. I mean call up the Washington D.C. Department of Transportation and the US Secret Service and say “Hey, we want to throw an event called The Pursuit of Happiness to help promote physical activity, health and happiness through skateboarding. Oh and we want to film it right in front of the White House”. Next thing you know we get a call from President Obama himself who tells us, “Listen, this is a great idea. I will personally make sure this goes through. Mi casa su casa”. Ok so maybe that didn’t happen, but we’re almost 10% positive he had some say in getting us the permit.

So now that we had permission to do what we want, let’s jam a bunch of skaters from NYC into a van and make the 4hr trip (7hrs with traffic + rest stops) and play a few games of S.K.A.T.E. Winners had the choice of a limited edition Presidential Seal deck or a limited edition White House Seal deck. It couldn’t have been better with the White House in the background, the snipers on the roof and a crowd of tourists and onlookers cheering for all of the skaters. Not to mention the 3 to 4 different groups of protesters yelling and playing music all around us. Democracy at its best. Tony Hawk got to sneak a ride in the White House, but we put on a game of S.K.A.T.E. for a few hours right in front on Pennsylvania Avenue.

All the credit goes to Billy Rohan and Paula Hewitt of Open Road for making this possible. And thanks to Taji Ameen, Dave Willis, Big Daddy Kane, Jake Johnson, Leo Gutman, Vince Danger, Pryce Holmes, Rob Harris, and Yoehei of Supreme Japan for making the trek and putting on a show.”

Acapulco Gold For Vans | Moda Hi

17 July 2009, 10.54 | Posted in Sneakers | No comments »

Acapulco Gold For Vans

Acapulco Gold gets together with Vans on the Moda Hi. The sneaker looks a bit like a mix of the Sk8 Hi and the Half Cab and features a velcro strap, which features the Acapulco Gold logo embossed. Actually they were inspired by the classic adidas Rod Laver and wanted to translate those colors onto the Moda Hi. The upper is made of suede and leather and hiking boot laces were added to the sneaker. Overall the outcome is a solid looking sneaker, that is unfortunately only coming out next year.

More detailed images of the Acapulco Gold x Vans Moda Hi sneakers follow after the jump.

Acapulco Gold x Afra & The Incredible Beatbox Band New Era Cap

03 July 2009, 12.30 | Posted in Caps & Hats | No comments »

Acapulco Gold x Afra and The Incredible Beatbox Band New Era Cap
Acapulco Gold is not a brand that does many collabs, so you know when they do one it has to be for the right reasons. “When we first met Afra a few years back we were immediately struck by his authenticity. Respected the world around, Afra is the type of dude who can walk into a Bed Stuy housing project and start a cipher with kids at the park without batting an eyelash. Blessed with the gift of Gab, Afra can mimic any beat you call out to him, plus he has the ability to chill in Shibuya as he does in the hood. He studied under Rahzel from the Roots when he first came to NYC at 19. Now in his late 20’s Afra is poised to drop his newest LP this summer.” Using the trademark Incredible Beatbox Band bear logo, AG added their usual styling and came up with a solid fitted. These caps are currently not for sale.

Check out the Acapulco Gold x Afra and The Incredible Beatbox Band New Era Cap in detail after the leap.
