Thanks Matt for proving your dedication to the brands and coming through with all the correct answers!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/shortysinc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Shorty&#8217;s<\/a>\u00a0was one of the hot innovative brands of my time. Growing up skating in a small town, everything was about skating, school then skate, skate at breaks, travel to find new spots, watch skate videos, make our own. Back when skate shops were far a few between I&#8217;d have my dad drive an hour just to find a real one, one who carried brands like Alien Workshop and Shorty&#8217;s. My history with early skating made\u00a0It a real honor to meet and work with Tony. The t-shirt we designed for the collab is a crossword puzzle, but in tradition of Shorty&#8217;s we used our hyperlight ink so when you go outside into the sunlight, the words &#8220;Fuck You&#8221; appear into one of the answers of the puzzle, playing off the tee that spelled Fuck You when you\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/24.media.tumblr.com\/tumblr_m0jx7aR6DM1qeujh8o1_500.png\" target=\"_blank\">held the shirt together a certain way<\/a>. Along with the shirt also comes an exclusive co-branded sharpie. To add another piece, we decided to setup a contest. So here it is, just launching now, and no winner yet. the first person to email\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:info@akomplice-clothing.com\">info@akomplice-clothing.com<\/a>\u00a0the correct answers to the crossword will win $500 worth of Akomplice\/Shorty&#8217;s product. When we have a winning submission we will make a post in his name.
