On Hollywood Tee Deftones Around The Fur S/S (Black) is a heavy-hitting graphic tee that pulls straight from one of the most iconic records of the late ’90s alternative era. The black cotton base keeps things stark and grounded, letting the full-color chest print take over. Front and center is the unmistakable Around the Fur imagery—raw, intimate, and slightly unsettling—printed with rich tones and a gritty photographic texture that feels true to the original album art. The subtle deftones script sits low and clean, balancing the composition without stealing focus from the image itself.
The tee is cut with a classic short-sleeve silhouette, relaxed through the body with a standard crew neckline that sits comfortably without choking. The fabric has that broken-in feel skaters appreciate—soft to the touch but substantial enough to hold its shape after repeat wears. It’s the kind of shirt that works just as well pushing through a session as it does posted up around the SGV, whether you’re cruising Monrovia streets, cutting through Pasadena, or linking up with friends around the foothills.
Deftones formed in Sacramento in the late ’80s and quickly carved out a lane that blurred aggression, atmosphere, and emotion. Around the Fur, released in 1997, cemented their place in music history with its mix of crushing riffs, moody textures, and Chino Moreno’s unmistakable vocal presence. That same record became deeply intertwined with skateboarding culture—its energy and tension perfectly matching the feel of raw street footage and late-’90s video parts.
Deftones tracks have appeared in some of the most respected skate videos and parts over the years, helping define eras of skating and sound. Notable examples include:
Arto Saari – Flip Sorry (track: “Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)”)
Jamie Thomas / Zero era parts – Deftones used across late ’90s Zero and Baker-adjacent projects
Foundation & Toy Machine videos – Deftones tracks woven into darker, more aggressive sections
Osiris, Emerica, and independent full-lengths from the late ’90s–early 2000s frequently pulled from Around the Fur and White Pony to set tone
This tee isn’t just band merch—it’s a crossover piece that speaks directly to skate video history, underground music, and that era when soundtracks mattered just as much as tricks.
