Shut NYC x Russ & Daughters Whitefish collab deck

Famous for their $15,0000 gold plated skateboard and a long history of serving the scene, Shut NYC have collab’ed with their local fishmonger to produce a one-off deck collab – The Whitefish.

This celebrates 100 years of independent shop service from Russ & Daughters, a fish and seafood based deli located a few doors down from Shut’s Orchard Street shop. Owner Josh Russ Tuppert skates and chose the whitefish for its shape, it also comes with a repro of the shop’s iconic waxed wrapping paper. As someone who food blogs for my local fishmonger, this is pure class.

Order one.
