Inspired by the furisode (振袖), Japan's elegant long-sleeved kimono traditionally worn by young unmarried women on special occasions such as Coming of Age Day, weddings, and celebrations.

Elegant, fearless, and always chasing the next challenge.

Skater Belle glides through the streets with the same confidence she carries in her beautiful furisode.

Some people say a formal kimono isn't meant for skateboarding.

And lands with perfect balance.

To her, tradition isn't something to keep behind glass.

It's something to carry proudly into the future.
