Our brand new Varsity Jacket style hoody has finally landed after almost a year of planning! It’s custom sewn with white pocket trims, white zips and red and white striped cuffs and waistbands. The design itself shows a goofy unicorn crest, complete with snot and a pair of underpants hanging from his horn, with college block text front print going all the way across the chest. These things are super limited edition so grab one now!
Now for some back-story - Basically around 3 years ago we did a varsity-style team shirt as a homage to the Bayside Tigers tees that everyone wears in Saved By The Bell - we threw together this weird college design with an American Football on it and a unicorn in the middle of it with the words ‘Paint The Stars Unicorns!’, as that was the funniest team name we could think of. Anyway, we only ran a small amount of these off as they were kind-of a joke, but they all sold out super fast, and to this day we still get e-mails from people asking if we have any left, so about a year ago we decided it’d be fun to do a real over-the-top version of these shirts and go with a full-on team faux-jock jacket! We worked really hard on getting every detail right; the cuffs, strings, pocket detail and whatnot, and we’re really proud of how it turned out - it’s easily the craziest thing we’ve put out to date and we hope you guys like it.
Gooooooooo UNICORNS WOOOOOOOOOO!U.S.A! U.S.A! (we’re English of course, ‘U.K!’ just doesn’t have the same ring to it, no wonder our American brethrens do it all the time)
The rest of our Summer Line is out now too! Some sweet new hoods and baseball tops can also be found in our store!
Check out this amazing video for The Dead Pirates by the awesome Mcbess & Simon. Not only is the song bad-ass, but the animation and illustration is nuts. Genuinely considering getting ‘L’ and ‘R’ tattoos on our hands..
It’s Bank Holiday weekend, so that means you’ll be doing one of three things; 1). Your parents will have taken you to watch some Morris Dancing at a ‘traditional pub’; 2). Your parents will have driven you and your rickety old-ass caravan to some god-awful caravan park in Derbyshire for the weekend where you won’t be able to sleep for your dad’s snoring in the bunk below you and the shouts of pikeys outside as they try to make off with the hub-caps off your car; or 3). Absolutely nothing.
If you’re a number one or a number two, then it’s bad times for you indeed. But if you’re fortunate enough to be a number 3, then you should take the time to check out our Bank Holiday discount! There’s 15% off EVERYTHING when you add the discount code ‘Bankholiday’ on our store!! The offer ends on Monday 24th of May so do it NOW!
Check out our boys Dan, Josh and Tom from Imagine UK Skate Co. - Not only are they some of the funniest, most awesome dudes we know, they happen to all be bad-ass skaters. We’ll be supplying them with some PTS decks very soon. In the meantime, check out this video of their recent Barcelona tour..
Meet the latest addition to the PTS Family - Our boys from Me Vs. Hero! If you aren’t familiar with these Blackpool-based blastbeat-loving pop-punkers, then you bloody well should be, as they’re fast becoming known as one of the UK’s biggest forces to be reckoned with. All you need to know is that they are bad-ass, have killer songs, and are super nice guys. Go see them (and probably us - ooh.. rumour.. news soon) at Slamdunk Festival in Leeds on May 24th.
Check out their MySpace here, and buy their awesome EP from iTunes here.
