Token NYC
Token NYC Surf & Skate Apparel
Token NYC rides the intersection of surf and skate cultures, founded by Christian Boalt and Lisa Schick as an extension of Boalt's original board shaping operation. What began with Boalt shaping and glassing boards under the TOKEN name evolved into a full-fledged brand after his move to New York City, bringing coastal energy to the concrete jungle.
The brand draws deep inspiration from 90s surf scene nostalgia, music, and art culture, creating a distinctive aesthetic that stands out in both surf and skate worlds. Their bold, innovative style celebrates these overlapping cultures with graphics and designs that capture the spirit of both board-riding traditions while adding Token's unique creative perspective.
The Token NYC collection features tees, accessories, and apparel that embody the brand's commitment to authentic expression, clothing that resonates with those who appreciate the creative dialogue between East Coast grit and surf culture's laid-back energy, all filtered through New York City's distinctive cultural lens.
