help wanted
It's time to hire. Third Base is growing. Fast. With Nico's help, Mila built something good. But running a shop isn't just about the clothes and trinkets; it's about the people.

We'll be interviewing potential employees, making tough calls, and rolling the dice (literally) on who gets a spot on the team. Your choices determine the future of the shop. Will you hire the seasoned pro? The wildcard with potential? A total dud?

MEET MILA. bambi's mom is shaking She hunts, you gather. Even back when the shop was a just popup run out of Mila's bike basket, our boss and OG shopgirl ran on the belief that a good find should feel like fate.

What's the one fashion rule you always break? Rules are for people who don’t trust their own taste.

What's the most unexpected thing you've ever sold? A gold cigarette case from the 70s. The buyer didn't smoke; just said it felt right in their hand.

What’s your go-to karaoke song?
'Promiscuous' by Nelly Furtado and Timbaland. Duet optional, but highly encouraged.

What's your favorite aspect of your job?
Making the shop look good online. People don't just shop anymore, they scroll first; so if the caption’s cringe, or the vibe isn't hitting? I fix it.

MEET SOUTA. past, meet present. souta rides both. Third Bases's token surfer boy brings the laid-back energy of Beachline into every inch of our shop. Don't @ us when your grandma walks out with a perfectly sun-bleached '90s Thrasher tee; blame Souta.

Tell us your favorite customer reaction.
A guy came in and found a 1996 Powell Peralta tee—same one he had in middle school, same stains in the same spots. He said, ‘Dude, this is literally my shirt.’ No idea how it got here, but he bought it back.

What's your most used emoji?
🌀 (Feels like motion.)
