Here is a step into Alan Padilla’s “Ink Addicts” tattoo shop in San Pedro. He is not only an extremely talented tattoo artist, he’s also a genius at other mediums such as oil too.

The “office.”

Bentley Board Shorts.

If you’ve been following our blog, you know that we have been dipping into cut & sew pieces. These are hot off the sewing machine and now onto your computer screen. Here at Forever Ashbury., we wish we had someone that showed us behind the scenes looks at how things are produced. We’re as grassroots as it gets and we know how it is to start up, so that is why we love sharing to you how we do things. Here is the finished product and premiere of our first cut & sew piece available to the public!

Named the “Bentley Board Shorts” after our favorite model, Mister Bentley Butterball The Basset Hound.

Now you’re probably wondering why we would name our first cut & sew piece after an over weight dog. Well, first off, he’s our favorite dog in the whole world. Second, he’s of French decent because Basset Hounds are originally from France. And third, you probably are wondering why being french matters & hopefully the pictures below helps out.

Pictured above is the bottom hem of our shorts, do they look familiar? They’re FRENCH CUFFS on the bottom of shorts and board shorts at that! French cuffs are often seen on dress shirts, and we at Forever Ashbury. wanted to mash it up a little bit and add our own flair! And this is why they are named after our french mascot!

We wish you could see the detail of the stitching and feel the texture of the fabric. But until technology advances or Apple creates a new iPad app for texture, you will have to buy it and see for yourself in person.

These are available in sizes 30, 32 & 34 waist.

Get it today at noon today ONLY on our online store, but remember, ALL of our pieces are limited and when they are gone….they are GONE!

Jack Of All Trades.

*WAIT FOR VIDEO BELOW TO LOAD*

Before I decided I wanted to pursuit my passion for fashion, I worked a full time construction job. I know, its odd to see someone like me in construction, but you gotta do what you gotta do to put food on your table and I was damn good at it too. Needless to say, I hated that job and only did it to survive, but out all of the jobs/careers I’ve had (McDonald’s, Car Washer at Subaru/Volkswagen, Cart Pusher at Target, Usher at a movie theatre, College student, etc.), I would have to admit that construction taught me the most skills as a man and to use in everyday life. At Forever Ashbury., we believe in doing everything ourselves, because at the end of the day, if something isn’t done correctly, you can only blame YOURSELF and if you want the job done right the first time, do it YOURSELF. This company only consists of us two.

To rekindle our love for skateboarding and keep active, we decided to build a fun box/bench, which was a replica of one that one of our friend’s dad made for us when we used to skate an empty parking lot at the Bank of America after hours as a kid. We also built a ramp out of the left over wood (Go Purple!). And to follow the title, Jack of All Trades, everything about this video is about US, from the recording, editing, building and skating. We hope it gives you an insight to show you that we’re more complex than just fashion, We are Forever Ashbury., period.

Check out the video below!! Also for other videos click here. And yes, I was wearing my jewelry and Louis Vuitton while doing construction :)
