This shop isn’t hype. It’s built on consistency and the kind of detail most people overlook. I’ve bought candles, shirts, and a tumbler, and every single item holds up.

The candle? Nautical Napalm. Smells like Aqua di Gio and freshly reclaimed power. I lit it once and somehow ended up deep cleaning in winged eyeliner and earrings I had no business wearing. It’s clean, confident, and just chaotic enough. Think Marilyn Monroe showing up uninvited and Amy Winehouse co-signing it with a smirk.

The tumbler keeps my drink cold through full-throttle workdays. The shirt? It pulled it together when I couldn’t.

I also grabbed a tee for my son. It had a scrappy chicken with a black eye like it just left the ring. He put it on instantly, got it dirty, and still insisted on wearing it—stains and all—to his sister’s graduation. No regrets.

And yes, the Jax Teller tile still lives on my desk. No explanation needed.

This brand doesn’t try hard. It just hits.

I was rocking Deck Ape gear before it had a logo. The Patricia Star credit card skin still turns heads — people ask me where I got it all the time. I told the Deck Ape he needs business cards, because I’m out here plugging the brand like it’s my side hustle.

My husband’s got Walter White on his card. My son? Jesse Pinkman. Every time they swipe, someone’s like, “Yo, where’d you get that?”

The stickers? Tough. Glossy. Not that flaky junk. They’ve survived cups, coolers, and a high-traffic life.

The car coasters? Didn’t know I needed them until I had them — now my console looks dressed.

And the wood-burned cutting board he made for my husband? Custom quote about his pellet grill obsession — it’s a whole personality piece in the kitchen now. Just like his food, it gets people talking.

Deck Ape isn’t just custom — it’s clever, solid, and built with attitude. Been repping since before there was even a store.

I’ve been watching my brother build this brand from the ground up. Long before anyone knew the name Deck Ape, I was getting the early test runs. Stickers, bookmarks, pens, tumblers—you name it. Some things needed work, others hit right away, but nothing ever stayed the same for long. He kept pushing it forward.

The glow-in-the-dark tumbler he made me is still one of my favorites. It gets used constantly. When I’m driving late and it slips onto the car floor, I can actually find it. It keeps my drink cold through long shifts without a problem.

He also made custom stickers for my ammo box. No peeling, no bubbling, just solid graphics that look like they belong there. They’ve been through a lot and still hold strong.

As his brother, I’ve seen what goes into this. And as someone who’s put the gear through real-world use, I stand behind it. Proud doesn’t even cover it. Been in since the test phase. Still repping with no hesitation.

Nombre girl… when I saw the phone case, I was like this is so me. Sugar skull, florals, and it literally said Bad Bitch Energy? I put it on my phone faster than chisme spreads at a carne asada.

Then he made me the Chingona shirt with the skull? Please. I wore it once and already had two people ask me where I got it. Told them, “My brother made it. You can’t buy this kind of attitude at Target.”

I don’t do fake cute. I want stuff that speaks for me before I open my mouth. Everything I’ve gotten so far? It does just that.
