Ripndip is a genuine homegrown, ‘started from the bottom’ skate clothing brand, founded by Floridian Ryan O’Connor. The company started life as merely a slogan that a young O’Connor and his buddies sprayed on their griptape, and since those humble beginnings has gone from a screen-printing operation in O’Connor’s mum’s garage to being a legitimate apparel brand based out of Los Angeles. The emphasis is on fun, good times and creativity.
