Two brands with a shared history that are renowned for supporting makers, creators and outsiders, have joined forces to finish what they started over Twenty years ago.

With Clown making a mighty comeback after an extended Fifteen year power nap and Hiut continuing to break boundaries in the world of Denim, this meeting of minds reflects the core value they both adhere to – creating with a passion.

The foundations of this project goes back to the late Nineties when Jeff Boardman was running the howies skate team, a brand founded by Dave and Clare Hieatt, now of Hiut Denim. Jeff left howies to form Clown Skateboards in 2000 alongside Vikas Malik, but the connection, the friendship and the idea to all work together was always discussed, and now in 2021, it is finally being realised.

So the wheel has turned full circle and they are working together again.

Older, maybe wiser, definitely better.
