Press Release


WAIKIKI – (August 19, 2008) –– Aloha Army is proud to offer the greatest collaboration in surf and street wear: Crooks & Castles X Billabong boardshorts. This design co-op features Crooks & Castles’ signature chain link and ribbon design which is accentuated by a hibiscus print. Stylish and functional, Billabong’s long history of boardshorts’ manufacturing insures that these limited-edition shorts are built equally as well for big surf and big pool parties. Crooks & Castles founder, Dennis Calvero, recognizes that boardshorts are essential in all wardrobes.

“Growing up in Cali, boardshorts are a major staple in most people’s closets because of the beaches and pools,” says Calvero. “So we wanted to do one with one of the top boardshort manufacturers, Billabong! Our boy, Aaron, hooked it up and we came up with a new twist on an old lifestyle.”
Besides Crooks and Castles’ Flagship store in Los Angeles, Aloha Army is the only other shop in the U.S. carrying these limited-edition shorts and will be retailing the Crooks & Castles X Billabong boardshorts for $TKTK. For more info on the shorts check out www.alohaarmy.com.
