From Street to Fashion
Manual Ware is a hands-on, boutique jewelry and product company. While focusing on the reuse and up-cycling of damaged or discarded skateboards, our goal is to give these decks a new purpose by extending their life from one experience to the next. This new function exists in the form of wearable art, tools, and accessories.

Silver Choker Necklace
$150.00
This is a contemporary pendant necklace design using a variation on traditional stone setting methods combined with recycled skateboards, metals, and plastics. Manual Ware’s Choker Necklaces come in four different stone shapes with a handful of rotation options. Utilizing laser cutting and state of the art manufacturing techniques, these pieces showcase a custom etched frame unique to their shape. These comfortable and lightweight pendants were inspired by our bolo tie designs, providing a secondary and more delicate option in neckwear.

Excess Put to Use.
Manual Ware’s product materials are locally sourced through donations from friends, family, word of mouth, and any willing skateboarder or affiliate. All of the colors and stripes are pulled directly from the decks themselves to be cut and re-glued into various patterns for each product. Paired with the skateboards are recycled acrylic plastics and precious metals such as sterling silver.
The majority of the skateboards that we use are often broken, discarded, or donated to provide us with a material to be repurposed in a creative way. Some of the decks used in our manufacturing process are upcycled to ensure our ability to quality control patterns and colors for various projects.
