Established in 1977, FAIRMAN’S is one of the East Coast's oldest and most respected Skate, Snow and Surf shops. We are a single-location, family-owned business. We’re proud to be skating into our fourth decade.
Come back to visit our website often. Check out event and teamrider updates as well as new photos, video and online shopping. Or feel free to call us anytime. Our friendly staff members all ride and wear the stuff they sell, so they’ll be stoked to answer your questions.
Of course, there’s really nothing like the experience of coming into a truly authentic “core” shop. We hope you’ll stop by to see us in person. It’s worth the trip.
