Історія моди
Founded in 1969 in Torquay, Australia, by Alan Green and John Law, Quiksilver began by producing specialized boardshorts for surfers. The brand played a pivotal role in transitioning surf culture from a niche hobby into a global fashion industry. It introduced technical innovations such as the Velcro fly and scalloped leg openings. Through athlete sponsorships and international expansion, the company helped define the visual identity of the boardsport movement throughout the late twentieth century.
