No, we’re not really surprised that Mike Vallely has teamed up with MMA clothing company Affliction. But then after his LA Ducks deal from last October there’s really nothing that would surprise us.
“Affliction Clothing mirrors my aggressive style and attitude,” said Vallely. “I’ve never felt comfortable in surf apparel — that look was never really me. Affliction is a clothing brand that expresses what I’m all about and in turn allows me to express myself.” Marketing Director Chris Lisk commented, “Affliction is excited about working with Mike V. He has always held strong as an individual and we acknowledge and promote that quality in all of our athletes and artists.”
Sounds like a fighting good deal for Mike. Follow the jump for all the details.
