Carl Copeland reps the Johnny Blaze line in Los Angeles, featuring Johnny Blaze shoes and the new hooded sweatshirts, which are manufactured at a thicker than usual depth, with a low wholesale price point of $35.

Copeland reported brisk business with the sweatshirts at the California Market Center’s recent Urban Suburban show.

Most recently, Copeland began testing San Diego-based Who’s Your Daddy, introduced as a T-shirt line at MAGIC International last February. Who’s Your Daddy launched a full collection of shoes, hats, jerseys and velour outfits at MAGIC’s August show.

The line is being tested in the company of Johnny Blaze. The skate/ surf/street collection has been placed in skate shops, boutiques and department stores, including Kohl’s, Mervyn’s, Anchor Blue, 24 Hour Fitness and JC Penney. —Darryl James
