Thank You Skateboards' co-founder Torey Pudwill has finally found a new home with Italian footwear brand P448.
After Diamond Footwear discontinued its operations due to Nike SB's domination, Pudwill was a free agent for years.
The Grizzly gang business owner continued skating the streets while running businesses until he received a good offer for a new shoe deal.
With his reach and massive success as a contest skater, P448 will have more skateboarders purchasing the brand's products with the help of Pudwill and vice versa, getting paid for riding for the company.
Pudwill posted, "🚨 New shoe sponsor @p448 🚨
Proud to announce my partnership with P448!After too long being on a path with unbreakable dedication and untold commitment, the stars have aligned with P448 as the new home that believes in my next chapter of skateboarding.. Do not underestimate the fire within me, fueled by a determination that now blazes brighter than ever. I carry with me the legacy of decades spent shaping this industry and refuse to be defined by others’ limitations. I am privileged to lead the skate footwear R&D under the guidance of master shoe designers embraced by a high-fashion footwear family crafting top-quality footwear out of Italy. I am excited for the incredible opportunities that lie ahead. Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey, leading me to this moment ❤️🙏🏽"
