Shake Junt was started in 2008 by Shane Heyl. Hot off the release of his part in Baker Has a Deathwish, Heyl used that momentum to start a brand thats truly for the people.
Shake Junt stands out in the skateboarding world for its exceptional focus on inclusivity and community. Unlike many other skateboard brands, Shake Junt embraces both the skilled riders like Reynolds and Herman, as well as the laid-back individuals such as Flip Nasty and Neckface, who contribute through filming and art. The brand’s motto, “By the Homies, for the Homies,” truly reflects its ethos.
What makes Shake Junt special is its ability to create a sense of belonging. Anyone can be a part of Shake Junt, whether you’re a pro like Matt Muford or just a regular skater with a group of friends.
Slapping on some Shake Junt grip isn’t just about gear; it’s a statement of camaraderie. When you wear Shake Junt, you’re instantly connected to a community that shares obscure hip-hop references and unique gestures like the ‘slap, slap, bump’ high five. It’s a language known only to you and your crew, fostering a tight-knit bond.
What sets Shake Junt apart is its celebration of individuality. Every team member contributes their unique vibe, which seamlessly merges into the brand’s identity. Whether it’s Lizard King’s gnarliness or Atiba Jefferson’s passion for filming, Shake Junt turns these personalities into shirts and ads, allowing each team member to shine in their own way.
