TRÈS BIEN X POLAR Skate Co. – Now Online

Hyped to be one of the most anticipated skate releases of the year, the Très Bien x Polar collaboration is now available at END.

In what's set to be one of this year's most coppable streetwear collaborations, two of Sweden's most revered independent brands release their 70s-inspired skate collection.

A collaboration conceived in the most low-key of settings - a pub in Sweden - Très Bien and Polar Skate Co. have imbued their collection with a heady blend of Scandinavian sensibility, skate culture silhouettes, and a contemporary colour palette that is relevant both on and off the board.

Developing organically between both parties, the collection is inspired in part by skateboarders Paul Grund and Roman Gonzales and combines Très Bien's style with Polar's vibes.

As well as taking inspiration from notable riders and featuring them in the official lookbook, owner and operator of Polar Skate Co. - Pontus Alv - called upon skateboarder-come-artist Dane Brady for illustrations which feature in the collection.

I think it gives it a personal touch when there are riders involved.

Shot on the streets of Malmö - hometown to both halves of this collaboration - the official lookbook for the collection demonstrates the nonchalance which defines the soul of this release and speaks to the Scandinavian dedication to simple, uncomplicated quality and uncompromising design.
