Martin Parr x Skate Room

One of the final projects personally approved by Martin before his passing, developed in close collaboration with The Skate Room, The Martin Parr Foundation, and DMB. It was a project Martin was actively involved in during its development and one we all thought he would be around to see launch. Continuing this release felt less like a decision than a responsibility: to celebrate the vitality, humor, and cultural sharpness that defined his work and legacy.

The collection features two iconic photographs translated into collectible skateboard editions: Benidorm (Goggles) and The Ocean Dome, Miyazaki, Japan, 1996. Two images that perfectly embody Parr’s singular gaze on contemporary leisure culture: absurd, beautiful, hyperreal, and deeply human.

As with every THE SKATEROOM collection, 10% of the sales from this release will support social impact initiatives through skateboarding and education.
