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.

- smaller than expected. Review by Michael
I had previously purchased a charcoal sword & skull hoodie size XL and it was fit as most XL hoodie that I own. I purchased a Blue Aqua & Royal Heather hoodie this time; same sizes XL. I'm 5' 10" 190LBS and wear a 44 jacket typically. These came in a bit more slim fitting in the torso. Not as roomy as I had liked. The sleeves on the Blue Aqua were also about 2 inches shorter than expected. After first wash they did shrink a bit as well.Rating
I love the color though! I hope more designs utilize this color. It'd also be great to see this color and design in zipper hoodie!
Overall I kept them because my wife likes wearing my hoodies anyways [they're hers now] but in the future I'm going to have to order 2XL if this sizing continues. (Posted on 2/19/2021)
