Originally one of Santa Cruz Skateboards’ most successful designs, the nostalgic retro design of the Kendall Deck board features Jägermeister’s symbolic deer — a fusion of two brands synonymous with authenticity, creative expressions, and non-conformity to norms.
“Freedom, authenticity, tradition – and a dash of rebellion. Those are the values that unite our brands and skateboarding,” says Jeff Kendall, CEO Santa Cruz Skateboards.
Speaking about the collaboration, Sven Schindler, Head of Global Brand & Digital Marketing at Mast-Jägermeister SE, said,
“With Jeff Kendall, we have the consummate skating professional by our side. He’s a long-time fan of the Jägermeister brand, and the board he designed on a whim over 30 years ago is something we can now revive and reissue together.”
“With these limited-edition pieces, we want to inspire both fashion and skate enthusiasts alike. The limited pieces collection will be available starting from June 20, 2024, in selected Jägermeister online shops and directly at Santa Cruz,” he added.
Following the launch of the limited-edition pieces, Jägermeister has extended its campaign to skateboarding communities in other countries and regions. In Nigeria, the brand has hinted at a partnership to celebrate the youthful defiance and authenticity of the skateboarding community through branded merchandise and a skateboarding competition where top local skaters will showcase their skills. Winners of the competition stand a chance to win the exclusive skateboard and fashion pieces amongst other prizes.
The Jägermeister x Santa Cruz collaboration is a testament to the power of blending tradition with modernity, creating pieces that not only honour the past but also inspire future generations of skaters and fashion enthusiasts. This partnership underscores both brands’ commitment to pushing boundaries and fostering a spirit of bold creativity and authenticity.
