THE SKATEROOM’s collaboration with Jeremyville & Friends is our first series dedicated to graphics and illustration – fields that have consistently inspired skate and DIY culture. True to form, Jean Jullien’s highly recognizable style finds its way onto our skate decks with these two awesome visuals.

The Jeremyville & Friends collaboration brings together Jeremyville, Jean Jullien, and Steven Harrington. In addition to contributing $15,000 to fund Make Life Skate Life’s Suli Skatepark in Iraq, the artists also created and donated 350 coloring books to Skateistan’s “Skate and Create” program, in which students in Afghanistan, Cambodia, and South Africa explore human rights, cultural studies, and the environment through art.
