SUMMER 2013

SUMMER 2013
aloha assault
Summertime vibes are kicked into high gear with this opening delivery to summer 2013. Inspired by the Hula Guns
imagery of ANP artist Kevin Ancell, Hawaiian tropical kitsch is juxtaposed against classic military fabrications and
utilitarian details, for an assault of aloha that you can’t fight bruddah.
nomadical radical
Alex Knost’s recent explorations of northern Africa coastlines are the inspiration for this summer collection. Afro–pop
prints and bold colors are mixed with lightweight cottons and linens, for the perfect balance of vibrant rhythms and laid
back coolin’ out.
camino de los muertos
Picking up from the SP13 journey down Mescalito Highway, this collection takes a cue from Keegan Sauder’s epic
2200 mile motorcycle trip to the tip of Baja and back, and heads deeper into untamed territories and destinations
unknown. This peak–of–summer delivery is born on the road and weathered by desert landscapes.
I hope you enjoy this season’s collection.
PM Tenore
Founder and President
RVCA is the brainchild of company Founder and Creative Director, PM Tenore. Transcending the boundaries of traditional action sports
apparel, RVCA is a design–driven lifestyle brand free from passing trends. Appearing as a natural on the shelves of boutiques as on those
of a local skate shop, RVCA is brought together by a group of like–minded individuals from various subcultures, a collaboration of sorts, a
lifestyle within itself.
PM Tenore’s intention from the very beginning has been to create a platform for RVCA which combines art, music, fashion and a modern
lifestyle in an original way. At the forefront of this vision has been RVCA’s Artist Network Program (ANP) – a venture established to
showcase the talents of accomplished as well as unknown artists who inspire our generation and push the boundaries of creative
excellence.
Established to promote the genuine integrity of RVCA’s subcultures while simultaneously giving back to the community, RVCA in essence
is redefining the way the market views art and fashion as represented through the balance of opposites and how they coexist: water, oil;
air, land; destruction, industrialization; art, science; foreign, domestic; order, anarchy; past, present.
For RVCA, it is about today, tomorrow and life as the big picture. It is about inspiring our generation, providing something of substance
and culture and above all doing it with integrity and as a united family, a close knit community.

The Artist Network Program (ANP) is an ongoing venture
aimed at showcasing the talents of accomplished as well
as emerging artists, advocates and musicians who inspire
our generation and who push the boundaries of creativity;
providing something of substance and culture. To RVCA, an
artist is not just someone who paints a picture, or writes a
song, but rather is someone who is dedicated to sharing their
life, emotions and soul through innovative and creative ideas.
RVCA and the ANP were developed to give back to the artists
and provide a platform for creative growth.
For the Summer 2013 season, we have some familiar as well
as newer ANP artists contributing. The following pages give a
little background on each.
