Alien Workshop

Alien Workshop is an American skateboarding brand founded in 1990 and associated with Dayton, Ohio. It has operated around skateboard hardware, apparel, skate videos, and a professional skate team, and has a recognized place within American independent skateboarding culture. The brand is known for a visual identity influenced by science-fiction, experimental, and underground aesthetics. Publicly verifiable information about its current ownership, operating scale, and present-day corporate structure is limited, so no further claim is made about those matters.

Alien Workshop was founded in 1990 in Dayton, Ohio, and developed in close connection with the local skateboarding community and the independent American skate scene. The brand initially centered on skateboard decks and a professional skate team before extending into apparel, accessories, and skate media. Rather than following the visual language of mainstream sporting-goods companies, Alien Workshop emphasized experimental graphics, science-fiction-inspired imagery, and underground skate culture. Over time, it became associated with professional skaters, skate videos, and independent distribution in the American market. Public information about later ownership changes, specific operating periods, and its current organizational structure is incomplete or inconsistent, so no unsupported detailed account is provided.
