Innovative skateboard designers Alien Workshop wants to bring out the non-conformist in all skaters, by channeling the iconic pop art styling of Andy Warhol. The Andy Warhol X Alien limited-edition skate decks are a collaborative effort between Alien Workshop and The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. Licensed under The Campbell Soup Company and Marilyn Monroe LLC.
Believe it or not, each board is intended to represent each of Alien Workshop’s rebellious pro riders. I didn’t know The Campbell Soup Company was so badass.
