WEIRD FOLKS ALIVE No1. Punking

Some things you can't buy off a shelf. You have to build them.

Back in the day, if you wanted a jump ramp to skate, you didn't wait for one - you dragged plywood into the street, grabbed a jigsaw, and made it yourself. Nobody was going to do it for you and that was the whole point. DIY wasn't a style, it just was, and it was an essential part  of your toolkit for life.

Punking is cut from that same energy.

Hand-sawn from plywood, no two edges the same - this is the first in a series of hand-cut collectibles, and there is nothing else like it in the world. Not mass-produced. Not templated. Just a weirdo with a jigsaw, chasing the same restless spark that used to build ramps out of scrap wood and dreams.

It's instantly recognisable as part of an iconic universe of captivating characters. Vibrant colours, the freedom of youth turned up loud and uplifting on your wall. It'll take you back: to skating, to music, to the simplest, most alive version of yourself. 

That's the thing about looking back with intention, it doesn't just remind you of something, it re-ignites that excitement, evoking a timeless energy that never actually left, it was just waiting for you to tap back in.

It'll lift the room it lands in immediately - a shot of pure, unapologetic energy that doesn't fade with the season. This is long lasting, enduring, timeless stuff - the kind of piece you don't get tired of.

But more than that - it's for the outsiders. The weirdos. The ones who never quite fit, and found their people anyway. This is a celebration of connection and community built by hand by our own rules. 

For the people still hunting for something no one else has found - something your feed hasn't shown you twelve times already.

Every piece is discovery in physical form: bespoke, one-off, hand cut and hand painted. This is the first in an ongoing series of weird folks, each piece its own moment, its own shape, its own story cut into the grain, no algorithm can copy a hand-cut jigsaw line. That's just what happens when you make things by hand.

Make it happen. Get weird.

Punking - hand cut from plywood. One of one. First in the series.
