REAL Skateboards and VERDY are officially joining forces to release an ultra-limited three-deck collection in celebration of Skate Shop Day 2026. Tapping into the vibrant energy of the Japanese artist’s signature aesthetic, the legendary skate brand has crafted a highly specialized commemorative lineup. The collaboration bridges foundational skate heritage with contemporary graphic art, delivering a collectible capsule purposefully designed to champion independent skate shops.

Constructed specifically for the annual holiday, the collection is anchored by Verdy’s playful reimagining of the iconic REAL Oval logo. The collaborative effort expands with two exclusive Ishod Wair pro models, injecting a personal narrative into the release. These signature boards prominently feature VERDY’s recognizable character, Vick, paired directly alongside Ishod Wair’s own dog, Valentine.

Elevating the visual impact, the boards incorporate premium finishing details across the lineup. Every deck in the limited-edition trio is printed with striking mother-of-pearl white ink, ensuring a standout aesthetic whether skated or displayed. Unique top graphics round out the design, providing a final commemorative touch to the specialized set.

The REAL Skateboards x VERDY Skate Shop Day collection drops February 21 via participating skate shops.
