Black Sheep x Alien Workshop Official Web Release
Black Sheep is proud to officially announce our collaboration with legendary skate company, Alien Workshop. Now available for purchase in-store and online.
AWS has been a creative force for decades and they have produced some of the most influential and iconic graphics ever to grace a skateboard. As longtime skaters with deep roots in the 80’s/ 90’s east coast, Black Sheep has always had a huge respect for Alien Workshop and all the ground-breaking skating, videos, and timeless art they have produced — so this collaboration is especially meaningful to us.
It is also an honor to have original Alien Workshop co-founder and art director, Mike Hill participate in the creative process and contribute such an iconic AWS graphic reference, re-interpreting it in true Black Sheep fashion. You may recognize the classic “Sheeple” graphic from an original Alien Workshop release from the 90’s and re-released a few years ago for their 20th anniversary, commentating on the herd mentality of the general public.
This graphic concept spoke to us and was a perfect fit aligning with the core beliefs of Black Sheep– to celebrate the individual and independent spirit while forging ahead and rejecting the crowd mentality, embracing individuality instead of the norm. Often taking a risk being a leader instead of a follower, even if labelled an outcast.
We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at Alien Workshop involved in making this project happen. They have continued to push and produce innovative, quality products for over 20 years with the same passion and drive as the day they were founded.
This collaboration is definitely a milestone for Black Sheep and something we will proudly hang on the wall for years to come.
