    If anyone is familiar with the dsbm (depressive suicidal blackmetal) project Leviathan, and the artist behind it, Jef Whitehead. He used to be a pro growing up, is on the cover of skate or die 2, and is also an accomplished tattoo artist and came up with the original logo for Thunder trucks, but sold it for cheap before they blew up. Imagine that.

    I created my skateboard deck company in 2020 first named mushroom skateboards but decided to change it last minute, in early 2021 I changed it to spirit boards but changed it to make sure I didn't get a cease and desist from ghost-boards. In late 2021 I changed it to martian skateboards but changed that one also because of alien skateboards. Now my small company is called LSD boards, I mixed the logo of spirit boards and mushroom skateboards to create the logo.

Anyway , I got several of these supreme powell long sleeves and hoodies. I didn't think much about them, but I get asked about them alot at work, and I always have to explain that they're powell peralta and not supreme shirts and hoodies. I'm familiar with the story that Powell used the font and style in a 1979 ad. BUT , why didn't powell ever sue supreme for some of that sweet supreme money? The font is a bit different, but a coincidence, I don't know.

No one has ever asked Jamie where he got the Zero name from.
