Manik is a skateboard brand delivered by the guys behind the Goods store straight out of Seattle. The brand keeps a stylish and clean profile and is sold only through selected shops – Cali Skat Dep. is one of those stores. This is the S.King line with hand sketched boards that feature some segments seen in the Chinatown districts of Seattle. This is a series of five, and if you lay them next to each other you’ll see the full graphic/neighborhood.
Once again a strong art deck series by one of the most premium skate brands on the market.

Once again Adidas Skate drops a model designed by none other than Mark Gonzales. This time he worked on the Gazelle and gave this classic a complete make-over. The outcome is a well balanced beige/brown sneaker with subtle artistic touches. The signature of the artist appears on the side of the sneaker as well as on the tongue tag.
The newly opened Caliroots Skate Department has it in stock now. More detailed images after the jump.

Adidas Skate got together with EA Sports on an interesting collaboration for the Skate game by EA Sports. Adidas Skate made a limited edition of 500 pairs of the pro model Mark Gonzales Superstars and Dennis Busenitz’s Gazelles. The only way to get these is to play the game, get the secret code. The secret code can then be used on shopadidas.com and you can order your sneakers. Pic via Vapors.
A nice idea and incentive to play some video games!
