Skateboards are designed to be a tough piece of equipment that will withstand a serious level of abuse, but the Buscemi Leather Skateboard is more of a piece of art than anything else. Crafted with quality deerskin for a supple finish, the Buscemi Leather Skateboard comes in three luxurious color choices including black, red or beige.
The Buscemi Leather Skateboard is being sold and marketed as a piece of decorative equipment rather than an actual skateboard and hitting the pavement with one of them would instantly abuse the soft finish. A nice tray, wall adornment or man cave finishing touch, the Buscemi Leather Skateboard is definitely for the more refined skater who's looking to put his board up on the wall; literally.
