Jessup Griptape


Identity

Jessup was the first and only brand of grip tape to market directly to skateboarders back in the early 1980’s. Almost three decades later, they felt their product needed a fresh look that would appeal to the next generation of skaters, but that also paid homage to their history. We created a new identity that has the weight of the infamous “Independent” Logo, and transcends action sports as a symbol of the rebellious roots of skateboarding.
