It was a little while back, maybe 2 years ago Nicke Svensson of Rigid Hips in Stockholm, Sweden, and I decided that we were going to make t-shirts for us and a couple of others. We decided on knocking off Ed Roth's "Knucklheads Forever" print and started Knuckle Nation. Why? Because building knuckleheads is crazy. It takes a lot of time, patience and.... well, luck or money. Even if you think you've hit the motherload of a score, its still gonna take some work.
Why not make a t-shirt to identify one another as like-minded individuals who love all things knucklehead? It's all out of fun. Nicke screened them onto some nice white blanks and sent them over to us in the US of A. Nicke only made 4 shirts, so please do not bother asking. Here's our man Nicke below with a set of knuckle rockers:
Mr. Lover-Lover, aka Danny Takahashi:
Dave's shirt was in the laundry this day:
And me:
The hardest part about Knuckle Nation: anyone can have a pile of parts. You have to put the heap of shit together and make it run for it to mean anything! Big thanks goes out to Nicke! Make sure you check out his site: Rigid Hips.
