OVER 30 YEARS AGO DURING THE MARCH DUMPS OF '91 ...
Richard Woolcott and Tucker Hall, set off on a snowboard trip that would forever change their lives. Tucker had just been laid off from work but that wouldn’t stop him from attending his routine Tahoe trip to visit Nathan Fletcher and Mark Gabriel. After riding four days of fresh powder, Richard called work with the excuse that they were snowed in and extended his stay. For more than a week, they awoke every morning with two new feet of snow. It was their first real experience riding powder and the new obsession wouldn't stop there.
Two weeks later Richard quit his job to take some time off and snowboard. He and Tucker had also talked of starting a clothing company during the Tahoe trip but nothing was really finalized. Later that spring, the two came up with the idea of starting a riding company based around the three sports they enjoyed (snowboarding, skateboarding and surfing). With an initial $5,000 from Richard's dad, they started the process. First came the name, then came the stone and Volcom was born.
Volcom was a family of people not willing to accept the establishment suppressing their passion for boardsports. This was a time when snowboarding and skateboarding was looked down upon and the U.S. was in a recession with riots in Los Angeles and the Gulf War breaking out. Much like today, change was in the air.
Richard and Tucker traveled around the world on wild journeys with friends riding whatever they could. The business side of things was minimal. The headquarters were set up in Newport Beach in Richard's bedroom and all sales were run out of Tucker's bedroom in Huntington Beach. The two knew nothing about how to make clothes, but that didn't matter, it was all about spirit and creativity. Clothing sales for the first year were $2,600.
Since those wild beginnings, the Volcom Stone has spread slowly across the world. The company has matured internally, but the same philosophy and ethos that spawned the brand continues to fuel the Volcom thinking that flows through its art, music, films, athletes and clothing today.

The thoughts we have at visvim
Dignity and Pride. These two words are often used hand in hand, however they have their own distinct definitions. The difference between them is about whether you value what it means to be yourself, or whether you value what others may think of you.
To date we have continued our efforts to connect the market with the work of craftsmen who conduct their output with dignity, while protecting the culture and technique that has been passed down from old times. Once our product takes shape, we hope our customers will use it, and when the opportunity presents itself, we would like them to think, "why does this product resonate with me". We believe when reflecting, the fabrics being used alongside the construction of each piece will provide our customers an opportunity to sense the "sincerity" of our approach when creating products.
Ultimately in any era or time, it is the human heart that moves other people's hearts. If we could help spread just a bit more, the concept of "living your life by maintaining the importance of being true to yourself," by utilizing our approach to creating products. This is the kind of thinking that we have long held an appreciation for at visvim.

Velvet
Velvet
Velvet is the creation of a fashion forward family, helmed by Jenny Graham, our creative director since day one. Prior to opening, Jenny Graham had immigrated from South Africa with a degree in teaching. Initially Jenny worked as an assistant in film and her parents worked crafting belts and accessories in San Diego. Having worked in fashion her whole life, Jenny’s mother was quick to notice her style and eye and encouraged her to move to Los Angeles and join the family ventures. After several successful partnerships, the Grahams decided to keep it all in the family and Velvet was born. The vision started simple—laid-back luxury with a focus on fine materials and craftsmanship.
