SCREW CITY
SCREW CITY represents a radical departure from the ordinary and manifests the idea that art can be expressed in the most unusual of places.
“The Choice Is Clear… It Is Life Or Death!”— The Screw City Creed
The Rogue Spirit
No Committee.
No Permission.
The choice is clear because there was never a vote. Screw City is one idea chased all the way down: art belongs everywhere — even on the head of a bolt — and nobody needs permission to make something their own.
That’s the rogue spirit. The individual over the industry. The hand over the machine. We don’t wait to be told what belongs on a skateboard — we etch it, gem it, and ride it.
And the industry noticed. Large players in this business have already taken our ideas and run them at scale — no name, no credit. We could burn our lives being mad about it. Instead we read it for what it is: imitation is the receipt for invention.
So no — we won’t stop. Every idea they lift just clears the bench for the next one. And the next one is already on it.
Built Different, On Purpose
Precision hardware forged for skaters who build, not buy. Every set is a small machine and a small canvas at the same time.
01
Hardware As Art
A bolt is the smallest canvas on a skateboard — so we treat it like one. Etched, gemmed and finished by design, never by accident. If it holds your board together, it should say something.
02
Built, Not Bought
Stock hardware is a compromise somebody else made for you. Screw City is the departure: hardware specced, finished and obsessed over for the people who actually ride it.
03
Make It Yours
Pick an icon from the catalog or upload your own artwork and we laser it onto a set of eight. Your design, your bolts, nobody else’s. Start a custom set →
Join The City
Shop the hardware, or build a set with your own name on it. Either way — the choice is clear.
