History :
The Southern California label was founded back in 1992 when Damon Way and Ken block first started the brand. Little did they know at the time, that would be the foundation of something much bigger...DC Shoes! DC originally stand for Droors Clothing. Did know? Now you know hehe!
The brand that began as a small skate-focus denim brand rapidly evolved and impacted a full generation of youth. They represented to the perfection the skateboard lifestyle culture that was mostly misunderstood at the time. Always staying ahead of the curve, and the predecessor of the « streetwear » before it was even called this way. Droors have always been a master at mixing the urban culture with fashion and art.
During their time in the ‘90s and early ‘00s, Droors made partnerships with heavy hitter rider and future pioneers like Matt Hensley, Kareem Campbell, Scott Johnson, Jeremy Way, Rob Dyrdek, Josh Kalis, Rick Mccrank, Danny Way and many more! As these skaters where best know for doing riding their skate in the street or in the pipe, they did not only rock the brand! They also appear in the commercial and campaigns. Their ads combine perfectly pop-art style in a provocative but stylish manner. We can remember some of the most iconic ones like the Ronnie Bertino smoking a pack of cigarette, Rob Dyrdek covered face with blue paint smoking a cig or the josh Swindeli « What a…. pussy » Just to name a few. They definitely always push the limits forward breaking down the barrier and setting trends. As much visually that on the boards.
