As the founder and co-creative director at Formula Werks, Escape76 consumes nothing but coffee and cigarettes. Living in a digital world, he creates wearable glory for the angry, unappreciated, and self-indulgent. He says his work expresses his overt frustration with life and probably too much anger at governments, institutions, and the good ol' USA. Occasionally, he might find the energy to do something happy or shamelessly clever. Escape has been trying to, yeah, escape himself and wherever he's at since he was born, and swears that the grass really is greener. He wants you to have a good time out there, never trust anyone, live for the moment, and be nice. After all, it's a love, hate, fuck, live world, and love is way more fun.
Our collaborative “City Series” Build Your Own T-shirts by Loyal Locals have been available for adults right here for a while now, and now that Workshop Kids is here for the future of the world, we decided it’d be a good idea to add them for kids, too. Woo-hoo!
So then, “City Series” T-shirts are available for 22 cities, including two versions for Chicago (Cubs and Sox) and Pick Your Teams versions for Los Angeles, New York, and the Bay Area. So many teams, it’d be unfair for us to pick for you. Get them on this site – right here – for the adult in you, and head over to the Workshop Kids site to build custom colors for your shorties. Jeah…
It’s an all-”Murk” week here at the workshop. Sket One is dropping bombs to start off 2010 in proper fashion with a new release – let’s call it version 2.0 – of his “Murk” character! This gem is avalable in Build Your Own custom colors, with T-shirts and hoodies for men and women available here and kids versions available at our Workshop Kids website. Jeah! It also includes Sket One’s tag on the lower back corner. Available in literally thousands of possible colourways, get in on the action with an array that suits your tastes. Call it…Murkruary! Check a few possible combos down below, and click the pix to create your own. Enjoy…
That’s right. We put out so much Build Your Own awesomeness that sometimes the classics get lost in the mix. And we can’t have that! So today, I’m giving some shine to the original “Scumbag Nation” T-shirt. That’s right. Stay hungry, grind hard status. The one that jump-started the movement. And look what it’s become? Amazing. So yes, you should build your own custom “Scumbag Nation” T-shirt, because let’s be frank, everyone is a scumbag in one form or another. Represent for the crew, and represent for you.

There are actually several reasons we’re posting this video. 1) It’s ill, 2) Matlock is dope and he’s a big supporter of ours – same goes for Wes Restless, 3) Babu killed it on the production, and, of course, 4) It features some of our gear.
That’s about all we need to say, more or less. Ha! Matlock murdered this track, and DJ Babu (Dilated Peoples) handled production in a quite excellent manner (as one would expect). Not only that, but it also features Wes Restless, who happens to be wearing our “Grind Hard” shirt in the video. Oh yeah! So, watch the video, tell your friends about it, and of course pick up the “Grind Hard” shirt for yourself in custom colors for men and women.
