Anti Hero is a skateboard brand founded in San Francisco in 1995 by Julien Stranger under Deluxe Distribution, the parent company of Spitfire Wheels and Thunder Trucks, and is known for its eagle logo and a team that has included Tony Trujillo, John Cardiel, Frank Gerwer, Andrew Allen, and Daan Van Der Linden. The brand's standard mesh-back five-panel hat pairs a six-ounce cotton-twill front and visor with a four-panel polyester mesh rear and a plastic snap closure, and is sold through skate shops including Tactics, Warehouse Skateboards, and Deluxe's own DLXSF. The SS2022 Supreme collab uses the same silhouette with a Supreme box logo embroidered on the front panel and Anti Hero's eagle on the side, and shipped in three colorways at $48.
