Pop Trading Company is an Amsterdam skate label founded in 2013 by Peter Kolks and Ric van Rest, who met working in skate shops in 2003. It began as a distributor for other skate brands before developing its own line in 2015 and debuting a full collection for autumn/winter 2016. Output centres on workwear-cut trousers, boxy jackets, knitwear, tees, caps and decks, backed by a sponsored skate team. Collaborations include Carhartt WIP, adidas, Dickies, Burberry, Paul Smith, Camper and MAAP. It remains independently run, with seasonal collections through 2026.
Overall fit
slightly large
Pop Trading Company garments typically run relaxed and boxy in line with skate-workwear styling, so most shoppers find them roomier than slim-cut brands.
Tip: Consider your usual size for a relaxed fit, or size down if you prefer something less boxy.
