Today, Manhattan Portage, which was founded on the streets of New York 35 years ago, has released footage following the real lives of four skaters and bike riders living in New York.


The brand, which grew alongside messenger culture and New York culture under the simple philosophy of "New York Tough," celebrated its 35th anniversary this year. The newly released footage was produced by New York-based photographer and film director Peter Sutherland as creative director, with New York-based Zack Sky as videographer.

We feature Yaje Poson, a unique New York-based pro skateboarder; DBlocks, a charismatic rider who rides custom bikes as effortlessly as if they were an extension of his body; and Danielle and Yasmeen, who show off their powerful and playful skating skills in all corners of New York. They talk about their lives in their "everyday places," including Manhattan's Lower East Side, Harlem, and Tompkins Square.


Culture is born every day in their "everyday places." From them and their friends. While each person's life and aspirations are diverse, Manhattan Portage bags are always there for them.

The three-minute video features the voices of these four people who live on the streets of New York and continue to spread culture.
