What do you think? Not sure if I'll upgrade from my #iphone6 yet, it still works just fine, but I'm getting more and more tempted by the larger screen of the #iPhone7plus. #iphone7or7plus ?? #iphone7pluscase #iphone7case #woodiphonecase #madeinyyc #everydaycarry #iphonefashion
Someone picked this combo up at a recent night market 🙌🏼. Which ones your favourite?! (Ps. The far left is a new design AND new whitewash technique we've added to our website👌🏼). #customwoodphonecases #woodphonecase #iphonese #iphone5case #iphonefashion

We raised our checker game for the 2016 Atlas drop deck. #nextlevel #altolongboard #checkmate #mahogany #walnut #woodinlay #thisisalto
Our path has had woodworking on it from day one. It's something my brother and I grew up with, watching and partaking in our father's woodworking projects as kids- without a doubt this concept of using wood to make something useful influenced us at an early age. So when looking to 'branch out' from our desk jobs ;)... it was natural for us to choose wood as our first medium when starting out... especially since we could use some of the tools our dad still had! #thanksdaddio
#TreeFactTuesday *Did you know... 98% of a tree is made up of just six elements... Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulphur.
Here's a look down a limited edition hand-cut #altolongboard, pressed into camber with a double kick. It has a solid wood inlay of #yellowheart, #padauk, and #walnut, with #ash on the sides. We prefer making things that last so the natural wood inlay has been reinforced with two layers of incredibly strong (yet light) triaxial fiberglass - the same stuff used in high performance skis and snowboards. #madeinyyc #madebyhand #madewithwood #madetolast
