The "skateboarding" and "surfing" competitions that attracted attention again at the "Tokyo Olympics" held in Tokyo. It is said to be a sport that will definitely become popular this period. Among them, skateboarding is attracting attention because of its fashion-ability, and it is said that "skateboarding / street fashion will become popular again". This time, we will introduce the "History of Skateboarding" in Japan and the "Skater Street Fashion Brand" which is popular not only with skateboarders but also with the general public in Japan. As additional information, we would like to introduce a "skateboard practice area" in Tokyo that you can enjoy for free or at a low price.
First of all, I would like to introduce the "history of skateboarding" in Japan. Skateboarding was born in California, USA in the 1940s. Twenty years later, "skateboarding" came to Japan. From the 1980s to the 1990s, the popularity of skateboarding exploded in surfing, and it is said that "evolution of skateboarding technology and tools" began from this time. At the same time, the young Japanese at that time adopted "skateboarding, street fashion, music" and became one of the big fashions. After that, the popularity has settled down, but it is said that it has begun to become popular again at this "Tokyo Olympics".
Next, I would like to introduce the "skateboard / street fashion brand" that is very popular not only among skateboarders but also among fashionistas who have loved street fashion for many years.

Supreme
Supreme was founded in 1994 by founder James Jebbia on Lafayette Street in New York.

Initially, the lineup was centered on selection, but it will gradually expand to original products.
STUSSY
