Two Australian giants collide as Sneaker Freaker takes a look back at GLOBE’s ups and downs over the years with UNEMPLOYABLE. Written by Jason Boulter over the past three years, the collaborative tome takes an in-depth look at the 1970s DIY origins of the Hill brothers-founded Aussie skate imprint and weighs in at over 12 pounds and 700+ pages with tons of amazing imagery and hundreds of interviews.

While you won’t be able to get your hands on the special friends-and-family deluxe edition pictured above (which comes with a skate deck-strength ply box, hand-bound vegetable-tanned leather cover and matching take on the Chet Thomas IV), the standard version of UNEMPLOYABLE is available at select bookstores worldwide and can also be picked up via Amazon.
