Greyson Fletcher in “Team Average”

Our Punks and Poets are anything but average. Since Greyson's family history is filled with legendary surfers, it would have only made sense for him to follow the family sport. Instead he's carrying the Fletcher torch into skateboarding to create a new branch of skaters on the family tree. Check out this trailer of Greyson defying the title "Team Average" in issue #39 of Monster Children coming out in June.

How We Kick It: E! News Stylist Cat Wright

"My latest fix has been all things Stance socks," says E! News stylist and blogger Cat Wright, the mind behind one of our favorite fashion blogs What's the New Black. "Since being introduced to them a few months ago I cannot get enough of the fringe and studs and always look for a chance to give my feet some extra love. With that I’ll say so long to the ratty college tees and Rainbow sandals, I think I’ve found my new summer uniform."

Chase Stopnik tests out the new Matix X Dickies board shorts

Since 1922, Dickies has been making purpose built work apparel that gets the job done. Now Matix has partnered with Dickies to provide you with a board short constructed in that same rugged spirit. In fact it took only a few weeks for our punk and poet, Chase Stopnik to wear in a pair of Dickies Original 874 before he was inspired to pay homage to the American Worker by combining the dirt and grit of the job site with the comfort and weight of a traditional Matix board short. The result, the Original 874 board short with all the durability and detailing you expect from Dickies without the weight. Built of 100% sublimated Polyester to work off shore and in the water.
