What to know about Dime MTL
A skate crew before a label
Antoine Asselin and Phil Lavoie started Dime in 2005 as a Montreal skate and video outfit; apparel only arrived in 2014, and the videos and Glory Challenge contest still anchor it.
Deadpan graphics, 1990s skate proportions
Logo tees and heavyweight fleece carry wonky, joke-driven artwork, cut in the loose 90s skate fit that runs through the corduroy and canvas pants too.
Independent, with major-brand collaborations
Still independently owned and running its own Montreal shop, Dime has worked with Vans, adidas, DC Shoes, Reebok and Canadian outerwear maker Kanuk.
How Dime MTL fits
Overall fit
slightly large
Dime pieces generally follow relaxed, boxy 1990s skate proportions that wear roomier than typical contemporary fits.
Tip: Stick to your usual size for the intended loose skate fit, or size down one if you want something more fitted.
