Honoring Steve Nazar: A Legacy of Art and Collaboration with Thrilla Krew

In the world of surf, skate, and street culture, few artists have left an impact as profound as Steve Nazar. His unmistakable style and iconic characters—like Thrilla Gorilla, Joe Cool, and Da' Boys—became synonymous with the rebellious and energetic spirit of the 80s and 90s. It is with heavy hearts that we acknowledge his recent passing, but we also take this moment to celebrate his incredible artistic legacy and our special collaboration with Thrilla Krew.

Our collaboration with Thrilla Krew was a testament to the timeless appeal of Steve’s creations. Working with Thrilla Krew to bring his iconic characters into our designs was an honor, and we are grateful to have had the opportunity to contribute to his artistic universe. One of the standout pieces from this collaboration is the "Aloha" basketball jersey, which showcases Steve’s legendary artwork through the NJS jerseys, blending his signature style with a fresh, modern take. Through this partnership, we were able to share his legendary artwork with both longtime fans and a new wave of enthusiasts, ensuring that his creative spirit continues to thrive.
