'INCREDIBLE' is a retailer in Hong Kong that has recently transformed its space to feature a collection of items that comprises a look into the history of skateboarding culture.
The pop-up shop includes vintage pieces from iconic streetwear brands, skate decks, various sneaker styles, figurines, signage and much more. Many of the products come from Hidetaka Akudo's collection -- from the Standard California company. With this, the pop-up is granted a series from the '80s that take attendees back to another time in skateboarding culture.
What's likely to be most notable are the retro skate decks that were taken from the '60s, with the differences between structural styles and artwork showing the changes to more contemporary pieces. Other vintage styles feature a number of Vans graphics and an especially exclusive Tony Hawk print.
