FRIDAY 7 NOVEMBER bastard turns 20 years old and to celebrate we launch a party from 9PM at bastard store in via Scipio Slataper 19, Milano.
This is the deejays’ lineup:

Starting from 6PM we host The Marc McKee Last Supper with the Cliché Skateboards team, the flash tattoos (specially hand drawn by McKee himself!) with the Tattoo Agio crew, the photo exhibition and zine launch of Shine My Nine, live silkscreening by Print Fast Dry Young and, of course, the bastard bowl skate session with all of our friends that will stop by.
! NOTE: ENTRANCE FROM 9PM IS BY INVITATION ONLY and maybe you already got it. If not, there is still a chance to get one of the last seats now by registering to our Newsletter at this link and get a confirmation by tomorrow at 4PM.
We just finished uploading the bastard’s 35th collection on the online store, with which we celebrate our first 20 years in business!
And once they grow up, they will take revenge by making their own clothes.

By making these products we had fun with Tato Chiala, Marc McKee and Cliché Skateboards, Muckefuck Skateboards, 2501, Whidaw DIY, Motoki Yoshio, students of design schools in Milan, bastard bowl riders (who regularly test our stuff) and all of our friends, who swung by the bastard store with plenty of ideas to be shared and turned into products.
SHARE skateboarding is about to celebrate its first year with the Carnival Jam, Saturday March 1st at 7 PM at bastard store.
For the occasion, the new videopart of resident local bowl ripper Jacopo Carozzi will be screened, and the issue n°1 of the SHARE magazine will be shared for free among partecipants. If you didn’t choose which mask to wear for the event, hurry up, as the bowl session that will follow is at least very promising…
Unintentionally monopolizing this blog, Giorgio Zattoni just sent us the video below that has been shot during his first visit at the bastard bowl in Milan. Unapproachable.
Thanks to Thomas Pilani for the video and to Giorgio for the Frankie Hill deck he was riding that day.
We are pleased to host the premiere of the first skate movie by Murder: Generation Waste.
Filmed in various locations among which Italy, French, Spain and Germany.
On Wednesday, December 5th from 6,30 pm, we will enjoy the vision of Generation Waste at the bastard store.
Hurry up, seats are limited!
After the screening, skate session at bastard bowl with Murder team riders and friends.
Christian Hosoi, Tony Alva, Steve Caballero and Giorgio Zattoni. It’s not the X-Games legends roaster: these are simply the riders that participated to the most unbelievable session ever at the bastard bowl.
Hosoi, who’s always been the king of style , shows us he’s still in an incredible shape. He’s almost too good to be true. He rides as if time has frozen. Pure legend.
We are glad to introduce to you the result of a collaboration with bastard and one of its favourite artists: the Sanseb t-shirt designed by Jim Houser.
We met Jim during “The Tip of the Sword”, his solo exhibition at Patricia Armocida’s gallery in Milan. Jim paid a visit to the bastard bowl and we fell in love with his work, intense, striking and colourful but calm at the same time.
Jim Houser is an american artist, skateboarder and musician grow up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the city where he currently resides. He is one of the founding artists of Space 1026 and one of the most prolific artists at Toy Machine skateboards. Houser’s works have been exhibited in museums and galleries throughout the United States, Europe, Australia and Brazil. His work is included in the permanent collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Harry up the t-shirt Sanseb is available online now in black or white.
Todd Bratrud, after enjoying Milan’s Design Week, flew back to his “cave” in Grand Forks North Dakota, deep in the US Mid West.
Thank you Todd, and thank you Winston Tseng for letting us enjoy the incredible works of this American artist.
His precious bag of prints, silkscreens and stickers is luckily still in Milano and its items are available for purchase at the bastard store Limited Editions section.
