Special Sauce is a premier retail purveyor, with its foundation based within the skate and snowboard community since 1994. With roots deeply planted on Long Island, New York, our collective consists of likeminded individuals sharing the same philosophy, by staying on the cutting edge of the latest trends to drop, in action sports, lifestyle brands, and street culture. In keeping up with this tradition, Special Sauce is constantly challenged with the idea that loyalty is the key to sustainability, and with this comes growth through progress and change. Sauce is a living entity which has evolved into a universal movement, supported by an in house brigade of Skate and Snow advocates, Floor Rockers, DJ's, Aerosol Assassins, Chess Demons, and overall worldwide family. In cooking, a sauce is liquid or sometimes a semi-solid served on or used in preparing other foods. Sauces are not normally consumed by themselves; they add flavor, moisture, and visual appeal to another dish. Adhering to this concept, Special Sauce is an essential element which further enhances the flavor of life. Our newly relocated store front in the town of Bayshore, totals over 5,000 sq. ft., specializing in skate, snow, surf brand apparel and hard goods. As the company has grown, so has their clientele seeking hands on expertise with specialty and niche products. To meet these demands, Sauce has provided their existing and new customers with the opening of their third and most highly anticipated store in the heart of Huntington Village on Main Street. Located approximately an hour outside of NYC by train, this 3,600 sq. ft. boutique will accentuate on emerging brands and trends for men and women, as well as the latest drops for the avid sneaker collector. With an interior color palette inspired by French design, special attention is dedicated toward emphasising the use of aesthetic merchandising.


Scheduled to open Winter ‘09/'10, the second floor will house a multi-functional gallery, used to raise awareness of local and international artists, with work featured in an array of mediums. In addition, the space will double as a showroom for pre-line releases, music listening parties, blackbook sessions, dance workshops, consultation shopping (by appointment) as well as a variety of collaborative events.


Trust in Special Sauce to provide you with their guarded 15 year old family recipe that has been concocted with the finest ingredients, always with the main purpose of satisfying your soles.

NEW ARRIVAL | NIKE SB NOVEMBER RELEASE

With much anticipation the November releases from Nike SB have arrived and almost gone in one full sweep. Before we had the chance to post up news about the much talked about and wanted "Gucci's", was as quick as they sold. There is still a small run left over at both our Bayshore and Huntington locations. Get 'em before they are gone forever. We have to admit that the colorway does stay true to the iconic brand.



Now, if you weren't able to cop your Gucci's, SB has also released the new "HUF" Blazer. Available in both a white and black colorway, the clean cut blazer is offered in a tone on tone swoosh canvas style, very reminicent to the "Chuck Taylor". The November apparel to match should be coming any day now . Stay tuned.
