In a new Babylon LA series, the popular Californian brand worked alongside Baker Skateboards, an American brand that was founded back in 2000 by pro boarder Andrew Reynolds and artist Jay Strickland.
The small collection consists of just a shirt and a deck, which both feature dual branding and matching color palettes. The tee, which is a simple crewneck, is black and completely void of patterning, however the names that appear on the front of it in white lettering with a neon pink boarder add some diversity.
The deck from the new Babylon LA and Baker Skateboards collection includes the lettering in the same fashion, however its use of the neon pink is made to be much more prominent.
