Marking its 10-year anniversary as a respected and highly influential skateboarding brand, Habitat Skateboards has officially announced the initial launch of its skateboard footwear line today.

Representing the next generation in the ever-evolving Habitat brand, amateur skateboarders, Guru Khalsa, Marius Syvanen, Austyn Gillette, and Alex Davis have stepped up to be the faces behind the footwear line.
Habitat Footwear is due to arrive in stores in February 2010.

From the press release that we’d received, here are the operational details: Tony Magnusson along with Legend Distribution (the home of G&S Skateboards) have teamed up to include Dave “Fats” McIntyre as Brand Manager, with Myke Reyes on board to handle Sales and Marketing (for San Diego County and select accounts) and Tony’s son Cheyne Magnusson will assume the role of Field Commander. Is that a TM role?
Anyhow, look for more developments to come out of this newly resurrected brand in the coming months.
