What to know about Call Me 917
Skate shops, not fashion boutiques
Alex Olson runs this as the skate-shop side of his output, wholesaling wood decks next to tees and hoodies, while Bianca Chandon handles the fashion line.
Graphics are area-code jokes
Most pieces run on the 917 wordmark, phone-number and photo-print motifs — a New York area code used as the whole visual identity.
Released through video parts
Output arrives in small seasonal drops tied to a rider team including Cyrus Bennett, Nik Stain and Max Palmer, rather than on a conventional fashion calendar.
How Call Me 917 fits
Overall fit
slightly large
Most shoppers report a relaxed, boxy skate fit that wears roomier than mainstream sizing, so the usual size lands loose rather than fitted.
Tip: Take your usual size for the intended baggy skate look, or size down one if you want it to sit closer to the body.

|---|---|---|---|
| Hoodies & sweatshirts | runs large | relaxed and roomy, built for layering | Consider sizing down unless you want a noticeably oversized silhouette. |
| Shirts & overshirts | slightly large | relaxed camp/work-shirt cut | True to size generally works; size down for a cleaner drape. |
| Trousers & pants | slightly large | loose, skate-friendly straight leg | Order your waist size and expect a baggy leg; hem if you want a cleaner break. |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | slightly large | boxy with dropped-ish shoulders | Stay true to size for the intended loose look; size down if you prefer a trimmer tee. |
