Altamont Inferno Festival Collection

For Spring 2008, California based Altamont pays homage to the fabled Inferno Festival. Crafting garments based on a Death Hula theme, Altamont will bring to the attention of the world three of the greatest unknown metal bands of all time: Child (artwork designed by Neckface), Wizard Hill (artwork designed by French) and Hematoma (artwork designed by Megadeth artist, J. Lorenzi). These three legendary bands joined forces for a concert held in the shadows of the Mt. Kilauea volcano in Hawaii. The event ended tragically when Kilauea unexpectedly erupted during an epic guitar solo from Hematoma’s lead guitarist, Bobby Blaze. Sadly, there were no survivors. Available the first week of March.

Lakai WWCD Manchester Select

None of us ever wanted to bid farewell to the original Lakai Manchester, but unfortunately, it had slowly gone the way of the hula-hoop the last several seasons. Enter Carroll. See the market frenzy that is vulcanization, and applying this hot concept to a one tried and true design, he might just go down in history as the guy who summoned the Manchester from the dead. Hey, if the hula-hoop can come back with zero improvements, then this one is a no-brainer, right? Available February 25, 2008 at Lakai retailers for $45 USD.
