Quiksilver

In 1969, two Torquay locals, Alan Green and John Law, turned to making boardshorts in their home garage based on what they saw as a market opportunity.

Authenticity, innovation, pride, confidence and a belief in limitless potential have been the foundations in Quiksilver becoming the largest and most prestigious clothing and apparel company in the action outdoor sports industry.

These values are reflected in Quiksilver's products, stores, athletes they sponsor, the world-class events they promote and in their worldwide advertising.
