It’s obviously no secret that pretty much all the major sportswear giants have made themselves comfortable skateboarding. In fact, that entire debate is pretty tired at this point, if you ask me—I’m wearing one of those brands as we speak. Happily.
But what started with shoes has grown into full-on programs—video projects, heavy teams, and now, proper apparel lines. The powers that be at New Balance Numeric have been slowly building theirs up, and if you’ve seen Tiago Lemos in their latest drop, you know they ain’t messing around. Swipe through below:

In fairness—when Tiago’s skating in something, it’s pretty much always going to look rad, but all the new Numeric apparel I’ve seen actually looks super clean and stylish. Simple designs, good fits, and that perfect balance between, say, athletic wear and skateboarding that’s easy to wear on or off your board.

As many of you probably know, this isn’t New Balance Numeric’s first time rolling out an apparel drop, but it feels like they’re starting to strike the right chord, as far as I’m concerned. Seeing Tiago in the mix definitely caught my attention. I mean, of course it did. He’s a beast. But the gear seriously looks good.
Aside from Tiago, NB# has dudes like Justin Henry and Patrick Praman in the mix as well, proudly rocking NB apparel along with their kicks.
What more needs to be said? This is just the beginning, but consider me intrigued.
