The Naptown Collective got its start in Indianapolis, IN, while owner, founder, and creative director, Elliott Gress was earning his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Art Academy of Cincinnati. Upon early introduction in 2012 the brand immediately began to include itself into the local skateboard community.

​

Naptown's work is fundamentally all about style, individuality, craft, and keeping true to the "street" roots of skateboarding and its subcultures.  

​

Naptown welcomes collaborations with like-minded artists and takes great pride in leveraging our social media to spotlight, showcase, and include people from all around the world because as the Naptown tagline states, "There is always room for more in a collective".
