'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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/united-through-skateboarding) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-west-end) graphics and an especially exclusive Tony Hawk print.
