Furs #5
Original artworks, hand-made by Koen Taselaar.
Each piece is crafted from jacquard-woven samples produced at the TextielMuseum in Tilburg — every one completely unique.
The tapestries are then applied to the top of the wooden skate deck, echoing the placement of grip tape. But instead of grit, you get a soft, carpet-like surface — a playful twist on skate materials.
This drop marks the first time Taselaar’s woven universe steps onto skate decks, don't miss out on these unique pieces.
