Skaters have driven fashion trends since the earliest days of the sport. Even before the Z Boys personified aggro west coast style, the earliest skateboarders were repping brands like Hobie and Vans, and helping to define California youth culture. That hasn't changed, and today's skaters are still at the forefront of street style, from Fairfax to Downtown to Venice Beach. The incomparable Reserve Result presents a look into what's happening on the streets right now with this series, The Skatorialist.
