EVISEN SKATEBOARDS was launched in 2011 under the leadership of Tokyo-based director Katsumi Minami. EVISEN SKATEBOARDS has released a number of products incorporating unique Japanese graphics and artwork based on ancient Japanese traditions and culture. Supporting team riders include Shintaro Maruyama and Shinpei Ueno, who are among the best in Japan. While based in Tokyo, the brand has close communities in Osaka, Sendai, and other major cities in Japan, and its scope of activities is not limited to the domestic market, but extends to the world as well. The brand's core products are of course decks, but they also pursue the essence of skateboarding, while also producing a full line of apparel and physical products that are sublimated into a fashionable look.
