C1RCA's "Neen Williams Shoe Release" photos

Whenever we would go through Chicago on tours in the early '00s, a then-little Neen was always our go-to tour guide. We are all really thankful you decided to move to California and ninja kick around on a skateboard—we couldn’t be happier for you and your success. On Saturday, Circa had a pizza/beer brunch at Brooklyn Projects. Cold beers, good friends and a mini ramp is a perfect way to bring Neen’s new shoe into the world. If you want to flick your board like Neen (and we know you do), run out to the closest skate shop and get these kicks! —David Broach
