Baker Skateboards
Baker Skateboards & Apparel
Baker Skateboards stormed onto the scene in 2000, founded by Andrew ""The Boss"" Reynolds after his departure from Birdhouse. Born from the ashes of Birdhouse's iconic video ""The End,"" Baker quickly established itself as skateboarding's rowdiest outfit with a team of hard-charging misfits who valued raw street skating and unfiltered lifestyle over contest credentials or mainstream appeal.
The brand cemented its legendary status through groundbreaking videos like ""Baker 2G,"" ""Baker 3,"" and ""Baker 4,"" showcasing the unmistakable styles of icons including Reynolds, Jim Greco, Dustin Dollin, and Erik Ellington, while later welcoming generational talents like Figgy, Rowan Zorilla, and Kader Sylla. Baker's infamous Bakerboys Distribution, housing brands like Deathwish and Shake Junt, expanded their influence throughout skateboarding's ecosystem while maintaining their commitment to authentic street skating.
Baker's collection features their minimalist logo and straightforward graphics across decks, apparel, and accessories, products that reflect their no-frills approach to skateboarding rather than chasing seasonal trends. Despite industry evolution and team changes over two decades, Baker remains skateboarding's authentic voice of controlled chaos, continually influencing culture while staying true to Reynolds' original vision of skateboarding on its own chaotic terms.
