Everyone had a skater phase in their youth. Even if you didn’t go the whole hog and hit the mean streets of Beckenham with your new decks (yep, we Googled that), you’ll certainly have spent six months clad in skater jeans in a fairly transparent attempt to snare one of the FIT skater boys who hung out in the park (because skater boys are always fit). That was ten years ago - you’ve long since grown out the pink streaks in your hair and put your skinny jeans back on, but the allure of a hot skater boy is still there. Particularly when the skater boy in question is Dylan Rieder, professional skateboarder and professional hottie. How much do we love Dylan Rieder? Let us count the ways…
**Vital statistics **
Age: 25
From: Westminster. No the other Westminster - in California
Significant Other: Not as far as we know - although rumour has it Rieder used to go out with Erin Wasson - proving that he has excellent taste in women…
**Why We Love Dylan Rieder: **
-He’s adorably superstitious, and won’t use skateboards that have red tops.
-
For the way he’s working the hell outta this leather jacket in this DKNY video, alongside a crazily young looking Cara D.
-He possibly has some of the best forearms we’ve ever seen in recent years.
-As well a stellar rep as a pro skater and a burgeoning presence on Tumblr (seriously - we’ve lost hours clicking through Dylan Reider fan pages, all dedicated to his beautiful, beautiful face), he’s also regularly gets flagged up as one of the most stylish skaters around. And a man who knows how to dress himself is an incredibly underrated quality.
