Read more about the partnership in the words of UAG:
"The UAG x Nathan Kostechko collaboration is built around ritual, creativity, and the spaces we return to for clarity.Inspired by Nathan’s daily practices of drawing, tattooing, surfing, journaling, coffee, and reflection, the collection includes limited-edition printed phone cases, battery banks, and a handcrafted box set designed to slow things down and make room for ideas, process, and presence.
Known for his distinctive visual language spanning tattooing, painting, surfing, and skate culture, Nathan’s work is deeply connected to process and presence. The collaboration centers around the idea of creating small moments of calm and intention within the chaos of everyday life, whether that ’s sitting down with a cup of coffee in the morning, sketching ideas in a notebook, tattooing all day, painting, or finding quiet spaceto think and reset.
The collection includes custom printed UAG phone cases and battery banks, alongside 50 ultra-limited handcrafted box sets. Each box set features a hand-painted box, exclusive art print, laser-engraved camp mug, journal and pen, battery bank, and matching phone case, designed as a physical extension of Nathan’s creative rituals and daily routines."
