Vans Presents: Lotties Skateshop | Skate | VANS

Skate shops are more than a place to buy product, they are the cornerstone of our skate family. Lotties Skateshop has quickly become a community hub and safe haven for young skaters in Los Angeles. Owner Mike Gigliotti’s love for the shop and the community is what truly makes this space special. Vans recently spent some time at Lotties to understand what inspires Mike to create art, elevate local talent, and preserve the skate shop subculture for generations to come.

Designed from Mike’s point of view, and featuring an assortment of Pro Classic silhouettes and graphic tees, this collection underscores the enduring importance of skate shops within our communities —and why it’s worth fighting to preserve them as safe havens for youth, where bonds are forged, values instilled and – more often than not—shit is talked. Lotties stands for all those principles as a community hub, above all else serving as an outlet for creative self-expression. Vans recently spent some time with Mike at the shop to understand what inspires him, reflected in a short film highlighting what makes Lotties so special.

 

 

“We are so lucky to have such rad locals at Lotties— kids who love and appreciate the shop just as much as we love and appreciate them,” Mike said. “My favorite part of this entire project is seeing the kids get stoked.”
