Antisocial Skateboard Shop x Simple Magic
The perfect collab.
Last spring, when responding to one of my many newsletter entries where I whinged about the ongoing churn of low-effort brand collaborations in the skateboarding space, Michelle Pezel of Antisocial Skateboard Shop suggested that we — the shop and this very newsletter — do a collab. The thing I had just been talking shit about.
Was this in jest? A deserved ribbing at my continued negativity? I mean, a collab between a special interest blog and a skateboard shop — had this ever been done? Could it even be done? It turns out, yes, it can, and now here we are, with some lovely mugs, t-shirts, and stickers celebrating this team-up and featuring wonderful illustrations by Hiller Goodspeed. Some are calling it the perfect collab.
Michelle, Rick, and Antisocial are the best, and it's an honour to abandon my personally held beliefs to present you with this Top Tier Swag.
For those who like to do their morning reading with a hot beverage, you may enjoy the 15oz ceramic Mug on Mug Mug.
For those with a closet full of graphic tees, here's another one for the collection. The Stinkbug is printed on a Comfort Colors® 1717 Heavyweight Adult Tee and comes in two colours (Pepper and Berry) and sizes small, medium, large, XL, and 2XL.
If you'd like any of this stuff, you can get it in person at Antisocial, online at antisocialshopworldwide.com, or if you subscribe or upgrade your Simple Magic subscription to a paid tier, I'll send you some as thanks (while supplies last).
There are two paid subscription tiers, Custodian of Simple Magic and Champion of Simple Magic, that you can sign up for monthly/annually for $2.5/$25 or $5/$50.
Become a Custodian of Simple Magic, and you'll get a bunch of stickers, a shirt, or a mug — your choice. Want to be a Champion of Simple Magic? You'll get a whole whack of stickers, a mug, and a shirt. Wow!
