Marking the latest stint in their ongoing partnership, streetwear imprint UNION Los Angeles and revered interior designer Sheila Bridges have crafted a limited-edition skate deck fronting a signature graphic inspired by Bridges’ Harlem Toile de Juoy wallpaper.

Limited to just 100 units, the collaborative deck was created out of a shared longing between UNION Los Angeles founder Chris Gibbs and Bridges to honor the legacy of Tyre Nichols, who was fatally injured by police officers in Memphis, Tennessee, in January of this year. Notably, all proceeds from the deck’s sales will go towards the Tyre Nichols Skate Park in Sacramento, California.

“Sheila and I hope that in our small way, we can continue to make the world aware about Tyre Nichols’ devastating, unnecessary death,” said Gibbs. “This is both our tribute to his too-short life and our way to honor his legacy by supporting the skateboarding community he loved.”

UNION and Bridges are no strangers to collaboration — their creative team-ups have previously included a UNION apparel collection, as well as co-branded Converse and Sonos designs. In tandem with their latest project, Bridges’ Harlem Toile de Juoy wallpaper will now become a permanent fixture in UNION’s Los Angeles, Tokyo and Osaka stores.

UNION Los Angeles’ Sheila Bridges Skate Deck is now available to shop at UNION LA and on the brand’s webstore for $150 USD. See the design in the gallery above.
