On the Board and Beyond: Skating Through Life in HUF

His worn-in sneakers are laced up, trucks are tightened, and he’s out the door to do the one thing he lives and breathes: kick and push on his skateboard. To the quintessential skateboarder, this is more than just a hobby—it’s a way of life, and no other brand understands that like HUF.

Since its inception in 2002, founder Ketih Hufnagel continues to carry the skateboard-lifestyle brand’s principle of being one that is made by skateboarders, for skateboarders and anyone else that can relate to the counterculture through clothing that combines creativity with function and wearability. Here’s how HUF can take you in and out of the skate park from head to toe:

Graphic Content Ahead

Streetwear and skateboarding are almost synonymous, the two sharing a common thread of expression—one through clothing and the other through action. HUF weaves the two together through a line of graphic tees that are as cool as landing an alpha flip for the first time. Printed on 100-percent cotton, these T-shirts fit the non-restricting lifestyle you lead, on and off the ramp.

Hot-Button Tops

HUF knows that casual cotton tees are an integral part of an active person’s wardrobe, but that’s not all the brand is made of. For days that call for something a little more dressier, button-ups do just the trick. Short-sleeved shirts with visuals like blown-up florals and bandana prints embody the finesse you have on four wheels, even when you’re nowhere near a deck.

Not-So Fancy Pants

Comfort is key if you’re going the distance on your skateboard. Don’t hold back in pants from HUF. The brand’s Walkshorts completely liberate your legs so you can gain the most momentum, but their cargo pants are just as cozy. Plus, both pairs wear well with the rest of your wardrobe, even if a day at the skate park isn’t what you’re getting dressed for.

Sock it to Me

It’s true: Socks do make the man. Although they are a small part of an outfit, they say so much about who you are as a person, whether you a skate or not. HUF has pairs for any personality: black-and-white stripes for the minimalist, repeated patterns for the digital creative, and so on.

You don’t have to be a skater to have the style of one. HUF is for anyone and everyone who values freedom of expression, even if you don’t use a skateboard as your medium.

Breathe new life into your wardrobe with HUF.
