The latest RAVE Skateboards Fall/Winter 2018 collection introduces its second drop for the season and it is full of pieces that are ready to combat the winter conditions. The lookbook draws inspiration from [George Lucus' film 'THX 1138,'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/darc-sport) which eludes dystopia and dives into a comical territory. Some pieces that exemplify this include the knockoff Evian water gear which replaces the original "Natural Spring Water" with 'Holy Water,' as well as a board that is designed in the shape of a water bottle.

The film is referenced throughout the capsule on a number of hoodies, puffer jackets, and long sleeve shirts as well, mainly defined by a plethora of [bold typographic details](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-on-one-collection) that recall certain sentences from THX 1138. The entire capsule is now available for purchase online at RAVE Skateboards.
