After its venture into the manga universe with a Dragon Ball Z-themed capsule, California-based Primitive Skateboarding is looking to intergalactic multiverses for its latest skateboarding collection. Inspired by Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's cult favorite cartoon 'Rick and Morty,' the brand launched a lineup of engaging, trippy and playful merchandise.
Among the noteworthy pieces in the skateboarding collection are two decks — one specially carved to represent the silhouettes of protagonists' heads and one that pays tribute to multiple characters in a psychedelic collage. Primitive Skateboarding also boasts a few hoodies, tees and long-sleeve shirts with graphics that reference moments of the show. The skateboarding collection is complete with a few hardgoods items like a portal clock and a textured mug, as well as the super clever Pickle Rick socks.
