About the Skateboarding Skeleton Artwork:

In 1977, artist VCJ illustrated two black-and-white posters to promote Bones wheels. About a year later, Court sat down to work on a new project that would turn that Bones theme into the concept of a skateboarding skeleton. To help Court make the image as realistic as possible, George bought a life-sized skeleton from a medical supply shop. Court named her Rosie. After several hours of propping and rigging, Rosie hung frozen in the position of a skateboarding skeleton. Court got to work. His piece, completed near the end of 1978, served as a Bones sticker and T-shirt graphic, the first illustration created under the new Powell Peralta brand.

Great Hoodie! Review by Jana
Rating
My husband loves this hoodie that I bought for him! It's super soft and comfortable, is exactly as shown and described (ie, it is mid-weight and colors/prints are as shown in photos). There are 2 comments I would make -

1. it does fit slim - if you're looking for a more baggy fit, get the next size up
2. I wish there were regular mailing options rather than just courier/FedEx. I live in Canada, and so having it shipped here via courier resulted in extra brokerage charges.

Overall, very happy with this product. Thanks! (Posted on 2/20/2020)

Most bad ass hoodie out their Review by Gabriel

Its soft and looks bad ass. I love this hoodie so much I wear it almost everyday now. I would want to purchase it in different colors later on but the little ripper is just a classic icon of skateboarding and I’m just happy to be a part of it still :)

Dope Ass Hoodie Review by Paris N
Rating
I loved this hoodie! I did read that it runs small so I ordered a size up and it was perfect! Not too big but not too fitting. This is the second one I've bought, it's so soft and comfy. Not to mention the dope ass Bones logo. Shout out to Powell Peralta for keeping me fly and comfy. 10/10 would recommend this hoodie. Thanks guys! (Posted on 4/5/2017)
