It is true that more and more people use the brand to dress in their day to day since they are very comfortable garments, with a lot of style and of excellent quality. Without a doubt, it is a perfect option to go to certain jobs, go shopping or meet friends.
Quiksilver's history is full of key moments that made them rise to the top of fashion and even manage to create a lifestyle, a “tribe” that follows them wherever they go thanks to their designs and the personality they give off.
It all started with two kids (Green and Law) in love with surfing, so they fought to stay and live in Torquay, a city in Australia where surfing is essential for almost all citizens. Its crystalline beaches, its summer climate and the perfect waves made this place a paradise for those who love surfing.
Green asked his father for a loan in 1969 to start making bathing suits , but it wasn't until his friend Law joined him that they found the key to his product. They needed the surfers' swimsuits to be more functional and comfortable to perform the sport in the best possible way.
They decided to create more resistant swimsuits since when you surf, many times you have friction with the seabed or with the sand of the beach, which is wearing the swimsuit at high speed, not to mention the salt, the sun, the water ... many factors that affect the garment and have a short useful life. Another change was adding velcro to the pockets. It seems a bit stupid because who is going to put things in their pockets when they go to sea? True, at sea you don't need to put anything in your pockets, but on the way from home to the beach you do. Remember that many people live surfing as a lifestyle and once they reach the sea, they spend hours in the water, that is, they do not need an umbrella, towel, shovels, bags ... somehow you will have to transport basic objects such as house keys until you reach the beach.
Lastly, they created swimsuits that had the ability to dry very quickly . Now it seems normal to us, but at that time it was quite a revolution. The comfort that surfers were given by being dry within minutes of getting out of the water was the great push they needed for their garments to triumph.
The friends managed to make Quiksilver a very important brand in the area to such an extent that Jeff Hakman , one of the greatest surfers in the world, noticed his swimsuits in Torquay when he traveled there to a competition. After talking with friends, he returned to the United States (his country) with the Quiksilver business in mind, willing to see it succeed there too.
He started with Hawaii since the island paradise was ideal for what Jeff was looking for, a place where people surfed a lot and could be in great demand. From there fame spread throughout the country and he decided to take it to Europe . He was a master of marketing so he had no problems for the company to prosper and become what it is today: one of the best known brands in the world.
They decided to diversify their product portfolio and also dedicate themselves to other sports such as snow. From there comes his logo in which a wave and a mountain can be seen merged. Without a doubt, the two scenarios with which the Quiksilver brand identifies the most.
