MARCELLE JOHNSON YASUKE SAMURAI

Size: 7.75

Made-In-California-Badge.svg

More than 400 years ago, African warrior Yasuke arrived in Japan in ways that are lost to history. This was during the Japanese Sengoku period.

According to an Italian Jesuit missionary, Yasuke's had a striking physical appearance, was over six feet tall and drew the attention of Oda Nobunaga, a powerful Japanese war lord and head of the Oda clan during that time.

Yasuke was able to serve in his ranks and is likely the first and only black Samurai to perform traditional Samurai duties in Japan.

Marcelle Johnson loves Japan and brought this story to us and after some research, we’ve decided that Marcelle is the modern-day Yasuke. Artist Tim Baron memorialized this concept and idea into Marcelle’s graphic.

The decks are made in the USA with the best Hard Rock Maple and printed here in California, the street shapes are basic pop shapes.

About Marcelle Johnson

Marcelle Johnson has been a legendary Next Generation icon for H-Street since the early 90’s. He grew up in East San Diego and became part of the H-Street Familia as a young 12-year-old ripper, who had an incredible sense of humor and larger-than-life personality.

Marcelle skated and filmed with T-Mag for H-Street’s last video named Lick and infamously did this trailer for the edit that was almost lost to history. MJ channeled his older brother Michael for this crazy edit him and T-Mag worked on. A must see and one of T-Mag’s best edits, according to himself.

Marcelle continues to be a big part of H-Streets Legacy and Team.
