Multifaceted designer is the quintessential sports crazy California beach boy who began his foray into design when unable to find a well fitting sports cap, decided to design his own It rapidly became a hit and from then on there was no turning back as he branched into sportswear, casual fashion and furniture, all sold from his LA based store. The keywords to his designs are classic, simple and timeless and these words apply to his line of Limited Edition pieces of ‘toys’ for boys of all ages.
His classic tricycle is a study little vehicle, chip resistant for the wear and tear of everyday play. Exceptional details such as the handcrafted Teak rear ledge set it apart from the average mass produced toy. Suitable for children up to the age of four, his highly successful design became an immediate sell out just days after its release.
For the big boys, the Beach Cruiser bicycle is brought up to date in a contemporary version of the familiar bike of the 50s-60s. Custom built to order, wide handlebars and fat tires make this bike totally at home on the Californian boardwalk. His vintage style skateboard is handcrafted from solid walnut planks, a present day interpretation of the LA street style skateboard of the 70s.
The cultural background of the designer are clearly reflected in the retro spirit of his latest limited edition series, the production and marketing of which would be impractical on a large scale but available for the elite few who still appreciate the value of quality and fine craftsmanship and are willing to pay for it!
