30s Thursday’s Last Minute Gift Ideas

30sshaun

I went to Target yesterday to buy a trashcan. On my journey through the store I walked by the clothing section and there it was!  Shaun White 4 Target.

I had heard Shaun had his own line of T-Mart clothes a few years back, but I had never actually seen it with my own eyes…  There, in the epicenter of (non Walmart) American mainstream consumerism, 30-something year-old moms were holding up t-shirts with photos of Shaun snowboarding on them, tiny skate jeans and all over print hoodies.

I pass no judgment on this situation, for this situation self implies all judgment needed.

I’ll tell you what though: Shaun wasn’t the only (or the most popular) Action Sports Super Hero cashing in on the general population’s insatiable lust for extreme sports:

1) Tony Hawk: Skateboards (MOST POPULAR)

The Bird Man killed it!  Sold out. Sorry kids.

2) Ryan Sheckler: Ramp Warehouse

For only $34.99 you too can have a tiny pieces of plastic made in China.

3) Jesse Csinsak: The Iron Gym

You don’t win The Bachelorette without having rock hard lats.  Look for his line of musk to hit stores in time for Valentines Day. (ha ha, sorry Jesse, just f-ing with you - you did have one of these at camp this summer.)

    Had my 8 year old in Target for school clothes shopping in August. Saw the SW display and said look Steven would you like some Shaun White pants or shirts? He looked at me like I was the lamest parent on earth and inside I was stoked to see that look haha!
