Palace Skateboards

Streetwear brand

About

Palace Skateboards is a London-based brand founded in 2009 by Lev Tanju and Gareth Skewis. It originated from a group of skaters known as the Palace Wayward Boys Choir, who sought to express themselves through fashion. The brand's name humorously references their living conditions, often referred to as "palaces" despite being dilapidated. Palace quickly gained popularity for its unique designs and authentic representation of skate culture, blending British heritage with a rebellious attitude. Palace has expanded globally, opening stores in New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Seoul. It collaborates with major brands like Adidas and Reebok, producing popular streetwear collections. The brand's iconic Tri-Ferg logo, designed by Fergus Purcell, symbolizes continuous movement. Palace's influence extends beyond skateboarding, appealing to a broader streetwear audience with its bold graphics and playful humor. Its commitment to staying true to its roots has made it a respected figure in both skate and streetwear communities.
