Fucking Awesome x Independent Trucks: A Limited Skate Collab, Now in Canada

Every so often a collab lands where both names actually mean something to the same person. Fucking Awesome x Independent Truck Company is one of those. It puts FA, Jason Dill's graphic-forward New York skate brand, on the same piece as Independent, the most trusted name in skate trucks since 1978. For anyone who actually skates, that is two logos you already have on your board and in your closet, together.

It is also a very small, exclusive run, just tees, hats and stickers, in limited numbers. Gallery Streetwear in Kelowna, BC is one of the few authorized Canadian stockists carrying it, and once these are gone, they are gone. We ship it across the country, so whether you are in Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, Montreal or Quebec City, you can get it. Here is the breakdown.

Why FA x Independent matters

Fucking Awesome is Dill's brand, built on raw, graphic-led design, in-house team energy, and pieces that read right on the street as much as on the board. Independent Truck Company is skate hardware royalty. The cross-and-bars logo has been under skateboards for almost fifty years, and Indy is shorthand for trucks that just work. Put them together and you get FA's art direction over Independent's hardware pedigree, with the Hostage and spiral-logo graphics carrying both worlds at once.

We carry FA collabs because they do the thing we care about most. They hold up when you actually skate in them, and they still look right off the board. This one is no different.

What's in the drop at Gallery

This collab came in small, so treat it as first-come. The Get High Tee in navy is the cotton skate tee of the capsule, classic FA graphic energy. The Hostage long sleeve is heavyweight cotton with the Hostage artwork, in a navy and a black colourway. The Spiral Logo Trucker is the mesh-back cap and the everyday hit of the drop, and the Sticker Pack 2026 is assorted graphics for the board, the laptop or the shop window, the easiest way into a limited collab.

Quantities are genuinely limited, a few of each. If your size or the trucker matters to you, do not sleep on it.
