Being a man of style and travel, Mr. Judkins has always had to keep many things in mind when out skating on trips in Paris with Adidas or Vancouver with RVCA. Large luggage isn’t an option, so it’s no small accident that his sponsors reflect his choice of garment and shoes. Both companies put out quality classic goods that appeal to a broad base in the skate community⎯from Hessian to Ledge Dog. And from what’s been whispered by the girls he’s not too shabby on the eyes either, with a James Dean swagger about him that photographers have highlighted in more than a few ads and editorials. In the day when just about everything under the sun has been worn by skaters, it’s nice to see that the simple yet cool-looking skaters are still out there, letting their style and skating doing the talking for them.
