Friday T&A on S&A: Something for everyone

I still like that last Devo album. It’s good. I think they are are working on another one. Here’s some, uh, fashionable skateboarders. Jocko Homo on the left was found on Why I Don’t Skateboard and Jocko Hom on the right is from Chick Break. No idea where either of them originated.

Meet Jacob

He works in the web marketing department of American Apparel. There’s pictures of him skating on the American Apparel web site and newsletter. I thought that board was the old designer SMA board at first glance, the one with the feathers. Jacob is seven clicks to your left on the Back to School/Reality look book.

Gap

Spotted at the Gap in Portland. Skateboard as fashion prop, but amusingly, someone stuck a big inventory sticker on the bottom of the board because they didn’t think it would be on display that way. Also funny, sandals on the mannequin. Some guys like Vans, some guys like Nike, others get the best performance from a pair of sandals. – Thanks to Steve B for the photos.

Drew Barrymore keepin’ it real

Drew Barrymore was photographed at a skatepark in Culver City, California for the February, 2012 issue of InStyle. Here she is yucking it up with one of the locals. Scans provided by what I have to assume is a 15 year old boy, at least judging by the rest of the pictures I’ve found tagged with Kroqjock.

Friday T&A on S&A: Action Sportsploitation

What’s that you say? Time to class up the joint with gratuitous topless pics of girls “modeling” action sports clothes? Head on over to Vice. The best part (well…) is when they list the clothes that the model is wearing, which is a little comical on the shots that are cropped so close to the boobs that you can’t really see the clothes. Babes on Wheels. Action Sportsploitation. – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip.

Friday T&A on S&A: Random Models

If you’re a model or a regular gal posing for a photographer’s portfolio, it’s only a matter of time before someone sticks a skateboard in you hands. Hey, you’re casual, radical, and fashionable. These photos were both brought to my attention by MC, so you can guess what his web surfing habits are like… Up top: Valerie Van Der Graaf photographed by? These pictures are i a few places on the Interwebs™, but I can’t find a credit for them so here’s a random link. Bottom: From the portfolio of Shannon Lee Miller, as seen on White Zine.

Friday T&A on S&A: Céline

Céline is French company that makes handbags, pants that look like they came from a 70’s time capsule and other accessories. Nothing says ‘fashion” like an androgynous topless girl and a skateboard. At least she’s healthier than the last model. We are the goon squad and we’re coming to town. Beep Beep! [Source: Fashion Gone Rogue and Piecesofme.]

Errr… Friday, uhm… T&A?

Maybe if you squint, but don’t look to close, because I think this might be a 12 year old boy. Check out the way the bikini bottom droops in crotch. Anorexia is such a turn on. Get more of less, on Velvet Cigarette, a web site dedicated to the model who is Rachel Lynch. She loves that skateboard though, there are several photo sessions with it. Rachel, when you get around to reading this, I already know that I’m more or less fat. – Thanks to Boy Ipoh for the tip.

Man About Town

Yeah.. I’m at a loss about this one. Man About Town is a magazine with “Babes, bikes, battleships, booze, burgers, boards & beastly behaviour” but then this video sure is an odd one. I was intrigued with the juxtaposition of stlyes and eras, and ready to give it a thumbs up based purely on the execution of the concept, but the major continuity blunder in going from penny loafers to Vision Street Wear high tops bummed me out. I might have to invent an S&A award just so I can give it to this video. Make no mistake, I love it that people feel a need to make skateboarding videos like this. I wonder if Kilian Martin turned up to the shoot with a European carryall for a skatebag… Has anyone seen this magazine? I mean, I know people have seen it, but I’m asking our readers. Catch the vid on Vimeo. Embedding is disabled. – Thanks to Dandy MC for the tip.
