Description
Transition seamlessly from a heavy street session to gapping stairs with the Powell Peralta Ripper Work Shirt. Melding clean, classic mechanical workwear styling with iconic skateboard heritage, this short-sleeve button-up features Vernon Courtlandt Johnson’s legendary 1983 “Ripper” graphic boldly screen-printed on the back.
Engineered for skaters who require a tougher alternative to standard tees, this work shirt excels in terms of on-board practicality. It is constructed from a rugged twill blend fabric that inherently resists tears, heavy scuffs, and griptape friction. Unlike lightweight cotton shirts, this durable material handles slides and slams without instantly shredding.
The traditional boxy workwear cut provides an accommodating fit that prevents the shirt from binding across your back or trapping heat when you’re digging deep into a session. For extra convenience, dual button-down chest pockets offer a secure space to stash a skate tool, keys, or hardware while you ride, while the button-up front allows you to quickly adjust airflow as the afternoon heats up.
