With this collaboration between HUF and Metal Gear Solid, skate culture meets one of the most iconic worlds in video games. The skateboard series focuses on the iconography of Solid Snake, the central figure of the saga, reinterpreted here in a raw and fragmented pictorial style.
The visuals play on the decomposition of the character, between nervous lines, material effects, and muted color contrasts. Each board seems to capture a moment of tension, faithful to the atmosphere of the series, made up of infiltration, loneliness, and inner conflict. The graphic treatment evokes both expressive painting and storyboarding, reinforcing the narrative dimension of the boards.
Designed as a triptych, these boards work just as well together as they do separately. More than just merchandise, they are aimed at skateboarders and Metal Gear Solid fans who appreciate the crossover between skateboarding, video games, and contemporary visual art. Unfortunately, the boards sold out very quickly!
