Armourdillo On Wasabi Fashion Kult

We were recently featured on Wasabi Fashion Kult, the kick-ass Miami style blog. Says Pamela Wasabi, “Armourdillo is a true believer of the street warrior and the innate talent of the legends rolling down the concrete rivers and breathing adrenaline 24/7″.

Skate With Lutzka On Your iPhone

dizm is launching a new Skateboarding iPhone app where you can compete against Greg Lutzka in a game of S.K.A.T.E. as music goes off in the background. S.K.A.T.E. features a variety of tricks, ranging from ollies to more technical moves such as frontside bigspins and nollie heelflips.

“dizm S.K.A.T.E. is a fun app that is technical enough to appeal to skaters, but easy enough so non-skaters can enjoy it too,” commented Lutzka. The dizm S.K.A.T.E. (Skateboarding iPhone app) is available for $0.99 from the App Store and can be found by searching for dizm SKATE in the App Store or by clicking here.

Steve Caballero And Armourdillo

To say that Steve Caballero is a skate legend is an understatement. He has been a pro skateboarder for 30 years! Cab started skating in 1976 at the age of 12. He was sponsored as an amateur by Powell Peralta in 1978 at the age of 15. Cab turned pro in 1980 at the Oasis Skatepark, Southern California during the Gold Cup series. He is an OG member of the Bones Brigade and starred in the skate video classic The Search For Animal Chin. Cab was also the first skateboarder to have a Vans pro-model shoe (the full-top Caballero and Half-Cab) and this is still one of Vans’ best-selling models to this day. We’re proud to have him a part of the family. Expect to see lots more coolness from Cab and Armourdillo real soon.

It’s All About The Leather

We have over 26 million cattle in Australia and 200 years of leather working is in our blood. Armourdillo was born at the turn of the century with the idea that accessories could be made better. We never compromise on the things that matter most; design, colour, leathers, and build quality. For us, it’s all about the leather!

Armourdillo Brings The Heat To Florida!

With Florida’s recent cold snap, Armourdillo headed on over there to the Moat and Surf Expo trade shows and brought the heat! It was a great show at Moat, held at our home-away-from-home The Skatepark Of Tampa. Our location at Surf Expo next to the street course was great for us, being skateboarders and all. Armourdillo and Theeve are becoming well-known nationwide. Thanks to all of the great retailers and wonderful people we met while out there!

Armourdillo Heritage… Old School CAB Video!

We’re proud of our manufacturing heritage and skateboarding roots. Steve Caballero personifies the skateboarding legacy perfectly. Still at it to this day, Cab’s roots run deep! Check out this clip from the early 1980’s when he was a young teenager!
