It is completely weatherproof and super durable, plus it looks rad! The outer is made of waxed canvas while the inside is lined with blue buffalo check flannel. A custom Cut-Rate patch sewn on the side while blue piping adorns the edges of the bag. Two different graphics are found on the underside of the bag. Come through the shop to check it out!

MTN DEW has created another Green Label Art series. This series asks 35 skate shops from around the US to each design a can with an artist of their choice. GENTEI has been selected to participate in the series and GENTEI’s own Wes So has been chosen to design the can. Our can is designed in a sleek black colorway with purple and blue accents. The design depicts a tiger skull which is surrounded by bike/motorcycle chains.
We need your help to win the contest! Each can is battling head to head to win the grand prize! Visit http://www.greenlabelart.com/shopseries to vote for our can. You can vote up to 7 times a day and have a chance to win prizes by voting as well. GO VOTE!

Since the birth of motorcycle culture in the 60’s, John Jordan has seen it all. With no proper training and a DIY attitude, he began printing chopper T’s in his hometown of Baltimore, Maryland. Without an existing template, he forged his own style and aesthetic, a style many large motorcycle companies have called their own. Even then, he follows his own path inspired by friends and outlaw bikers. A craftsman in his own regard, John Jordan brings his pioneering artwork to Cut-Rate, a company with whom he shares the same do-it-yourself, go-for-it attitude and vision.
