FA x Independent Hostage LS Black
Shipping from $8.95 by weight • Free over $150 • Ships in 1–2 days
The FA x Independent Hostage LS in black is the Fucking Awesome x Independent Trucks collab in long-sleeve form — the darker, graphic-forward piece on a heavyweight cotton body. The black colourway is the stealth pick of the pair: the “Hostage” artwork reads clean against the dark ground and it goes with everything, so it's the easy everyday LS of the two. A long sleeve you can skate in through shoulder season and layer under a jacket when it drops. We carry FA collabs because they hold up on the board and read right on the street.

Fit & wear
Standard skate-tee cut in a long sleeve — true to size with room to layer a tee underneath. Great as a mid-layer in the Okanagan shoulder season, and the black hides scuffs and dirt better than the navy if you actually skate in it. Size up for a baggier look. Inputs needed from Todd: an on-body fit line (sleeve length, boxiness) — spec note written; a worn-it line beats it.
