Fallen T-Shirts

Buying skate brand clothing is important to a lot of skaters, but it's a hard balance - you want a shirt that looks cool, you want to support a good brand, but you don't want the same shirt everyone else has. The Fallen skate shirt line has a strong, bold monochrome look - everything is in black, white or gray. The logos and designs are gritty, stark and angular. The shirts look good, and the Fallen shoe brand is high quality but not super common, so you know you're getting something cool.

When Jamie Thomas first started up Fallen, I was excited - I'm a big fan of Thomas. I like his bold strong skating, and I like his message. Jamie Thomas is a strong Christian, but instead of going flowers and angels with his designs, he keeps it real, gritty and human. It's a great blend of personal faith and passion for skating.

First off there's the Fallen motto, "Rise with the Fallen." It's a great line for skating, it's a great idea, and it's a sobering, truthful statement about who we all are. Fallen from grace, fallen from the good life, fallen in truth, bleeding on the pavement. It's like it's saying, "Admit it, you're screwed up. You're hurt. Once you admit it, join the rest of us, and rise up." Good words.

The style and colors on the shirts all stark black & white. It's strong, and it looks good. The logo is sharp and angular. Skulls, wings, strong slashed or angled text, there's something for everyone, and the shirts look sharp. They're made from cotton, of course - good quality, with thick printed designs.

Drawbacks? Well, besides being a bit hard to find at the moment, sometimes color is nice. These shirts have their own strong style, and if you aren't into the stark black & white look, there's nothing else for you here.

But that's what makes these shirts unique - they have their own look, and they're not found just anywhere. Check out Fallen shirts, and see what you think. Rise with the Fallen.
