Anteater - streetwear label from Saint-Petersburg, Russia.

History of Anteater clothing brand began in 2006 year, one year before that I have started web site creammag dot ru - this project is about extreme sports and street culture. Me as a graffiti kid, dude that always loved to skate and snowboard, is really so deep interested in street culture. In 2006 year my Dad and I decided to produce some t-shirts branded with logo of creammag. We have discussed it with frendly skateshops and streetwear

stores, some of them agreed to sell our products. After maybe five-six prints on tees and pair of hoodies that have been sold so fast in that shops, we understood that it can be a brand, not advertising stuff for web site - it can be powerful independent project.

First t-shirt of Anteater brand was made in the beginning of 2007, is was «True Fake Walker» tee with Chuck Norris.

In that time Jart skateboard team came to Saint-Petersburg to make some photos, autograph sessions and demos. I spent all time with this team as a photographer, one day i presented tee to Mathieu Dupuy and took some pictures with him in that t-shirt. Later these photos were published in Afisha magazine, very popular media between youngsters. It was a great start for our PR

company, we began with nice skateboard crew that included dopest skaters: Maxim Kruglov, Kirill Ivanov and Pasha Mushkin, this dudes ride so hot on skateboard.

And also with photo of Mathieu, there was introduction of a brand and image of large poster which were made by Endier, streetart artist from our city.

We got nice responce from street community, because we were always trying to help perspective riders, give stuff as a gift for big extreme events, give clothing to our frends who were insiders in this movement! As example our friend Dj Bazil from True Flavas, crew of a famous russian Djs, He is a vinyl collector, fun of funk of 45s, hip-hop and in my mind one of the greatest Djs in Russia. He always plays on our events - CREAMparty.

Im lucky that when I opened web site I was involved in the world of photography, It is still not clear for me how much money I could have spent if I didnt know how to shoot. I was shooting best riders of Saint-Petersburg wearing Anteater. Even if they had another sponsors, I always tryed to make some photos in which they were dressed in clothes of our brand.

This is a little part of collaborations with Sicksystems, I want to say thanks to Aske for support and for that he belived in our brand. Aske was the one who inspired us to make collaborations and he also is the author of our new logo.

We also produced very tall tees and hoodies which are popular between snowboarders, new school ski riders, hip-hopers,

b-boys, here are some pictures of our friends & riders Dima Makrushin, Vitalik Kensman and Anton Seleznev.

Cike is a painter, illustrator and designer from Belarus, now he lives in Germany and some days ago he had his own exhibition there. We are proud to work with him, because he is a great artist, really high talanted!

Together we have made so much collaborations, his prints are everywhere. And soon we will get some fresh designs.
