The COMUNE website (thecomune.com) provides the most complete view of the brand and its’ unique creative community.

The Camp, 2937 Bristol St. Costa Mesa, CA 92626

Wick Winder Distribution Joins Comune for Canada

OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE - Starting in February 2009, Wick Winder Distribution of Richmond, BC will begin distributing Comune clothing of Costa Mesa, CA throughout Canada!

This is an exciting new partnership that will give Comune the ability to connect with our customers via the best retailers in Canada!

Comune’s début clothing collection offers forward silhouettes combined with quality fabrics at accessible prices to create a look that is equal parts high fashion and skate ready street wear.

Comune was formed from the idea that there will always be people out there who not only embrace the rawness and imperfections of everyday life but use it to creatively push the boundaries of what’s possible in skate, snow, fashion, art, and music their own way, regardless of consequence. Our goal is to provide clothing that reflects this lifestyle of carefree idealism and support the people who choose to live it!

Comune has a diverse collection of contributors from skate like Braydon Safranski, Don Nguyen, Matt Ball, Peter Watkins, Gareth Stehr, Jeff Lenoce, Keelan Dadd, and Albert Madrid. Also joining us are Nima Jilali , Nick Dirks, Eric Messier, Jon Kooley, Jordan Mendenhall, Matty Ryan, and Josh Mills from the Snowboard community. All of whom will have a roll in shaping the direction of Comune.

Wick Winder focuses on fewer brands to give them the attention and enthusiasm they need to grow in Canada correctly. Currently the largest distributor in the world for Vestal, Wick Winder also distributes Stepchild Snowboards, Neff, NHS and Ashbury eyewear amongst others. We are proud to be a part of that family!

Wick Winder has a great understanding of the Canadian retail market, a broad customer base and some of the best sales reps in the industry that will help Comune succeed throughout Canada. Focusing on customer relations and making sure they offer the best service possible, Wick Winder is in constant contact with their retailers via their in house and outside sales teams to ensure
strong retail partnerships. A philosophy we at Comune strongly endorse as we build our brand here in the States.

We look forward to working with Wick Winder in welcoming like minded Canadians to join Comune!
