Quiksilver by Vuerich B.
Quiksilver invited Vuerich B, the young brand from Barcelona dedicated to creating glasses from broken skateboards, to revisit "the griffin model" for a limited edition, all hand made. Part of the revenues from these products is donated to skateistan, an association working on educational projects related to skateboarding in Cambodia!

Quiksilver awakens the spirit of surfing that lives in everyone. It’s a spirit that everyone can identify with and wants to be a part of.
From its beginnings four decades ago, Quiksilver has been based on creativity, adventure, progression and freedom. This is embodied in its boardriding culture and is symbolized by its logo, a wave breaking over a snowcapped mountain. Quiksilver’s essential qualities of functionality, innovation and durability remain true to its heritage. We have grown our Quiksilver product line from its origins as a line of boardshorts to now include shirts, walkshorts, t-shirts, fleece, pants, jackets, technical outerwear, footwear, hats, backpacks, wetsuits, watches, eyewear and other accessories. Quiksilver has also expanded its target market beyond young men to include a Women’s line.
Roxy is all about heart. When you follow your heart, you inspire others to do the same.
With its core in boardsports, Roxy is a fashion outdoor brand that expresses the coastal and mountain casual lifestyle, which is represented in its heart logo that combines offsetting Quiksilver mountain-wave logos. The Roxy girl is fun and alive, daring and confident, naturally beautiful, and she appreciates innovation and simplicity. Roxy was introduced in 1990 targeted at the juniors market and later expanded to include girls with the Teenie Wahine and Roxy Girl product lines. Roxy includes a full range of sportswear, swimwear, footwear, eyewear, bags, outerwear, snowboards, snowboard boots, skis and other accessories for young women.
Blending technicity and style, Moskova is a unique brand born in the mind of a core group of athletes who live the dream daily and are in need of performance products.
The inspiration of Moskova comes from their respective backgrounds and uncompromising lifestyle. Ever since the establishment in September 2009, Moskova has been rapidly growing and added several new and fresh riders to the team. We are proud to announce the line of signature models from some of the finest riders. “Embrace comfort, enhance performance”.
