Історія
Hezy Shaked and Tilly Levine founded the company in 1982, opening the first store in Orange County, California. The retailer became a significant distributor for emerging surf and skate brands, facilitating their transition from niche subcultures to mainstream retail environments. Throughout the late twentieth century, it played a role in the commercialization of the West Coast aesthetic, expanding its physical presence across the United States to serve a broad demographic of young consumers.
