DC Company Clothing: DC's tradition of excellence is based on its dedication to skateboarding and to those who participate which has now moved on to include snowboarding, surf and MX. Formed in 93, within a few years DC began turning heads in the skateboarding industry. It was obvious that no one else was providing skateboarders with technical footwear, and the clean, functional aesthetics of the products and the company appealed to skateboarders everywhere and this passed on to their clothing line encompassing t-shirt, hoodies, jackets, beanies, backpacks, jeans and pants / trousers. Non-skaters were noticing the distinctive style of DC shoes as well.
