Skateboarding Sunnies

While fashion may, to the untrained eye, seem like the opposite of the boarding culture it is in fact their sole purpose for being. Skateboarding is not an easy thing to learn to do, and along the road to awesomedom there are many scraped knees and possible concussions. That’s why when a boarder gets to the point where they can do cool tricks without breaking any bones, they immediately spruce up their wardrobe and take their skateboard to a very public location to show off for the ladies.

Since skateboarding is a recreational sport that requires an audience, the stage must be set and the actors must have on their costumes. The skateboarding costume has several requirements, including but not limited to baggy jeans, a T-shirt with a band name on it, colorful shoes of either the Converse or Sketchers variety and most importantly, a pair of Ray Bans. No other brand of eyewear will do as only Ray Bans are the skateboarders secret weapon. If you fall in Ray Bans you don’t lose cool points, you gain daredevil street credibility. While most boarders are partial to the Aviator, the Wayfarer is a respectable backup option as well.

So, get out there with your board, whether it be snow or skate, and get your Ray Ban’s firmly in place, your baggy pants hiked down, and get your groove on in front of the ladies outside the mall. You’re cool, yeah, you know it.
