Історія моди
Founded in 1973 by Richard Novak, Doug Haut, and Jay Shuirman, Santa Cruz is the oldest continuous skateboard company in the world. The brand gained cultural significance through the artwork of Jim Phillips, whose surrealist graphics defined the visual identity of 1980s skateboarding. Beyond equipment, the brand influenced fashion history by popularizing graphic-heavy apparel that bridged the gap between niche athletic gear and mainstream streetwear.
