History

Roxy was founded in 1990 by Quiksilver, a company known for men's surf apparel. The brand was created to address the lack of stylish, high-performance clothing for women in surfing and snowboarding. It quickly gained popularity among female surfers and snowboarders, becoming a leading women's action sports brand. Over the years, Roxy expanded its product range to include swimwear, snow gear, denim, and accessories. It also sponsored professional athletes and events, further cementing its presence in surf and snow culture. In 2015, Quiksilver filed for bankruptcy, and its brands, including Roxy, were eventually acquired by Authentic Brands Group in 2016. Under ABG, Roxy continues to operate as a global brand with a strong e-commerce presence and retail distribution.
