Dickies is a brand of workwear clothing that was founded in 1922 in Bryan, Texas, by C.N. Williamson and E.E. "Colonel" Dickie. The brand started as a bib overall company and quickly expanded into other categories such as shirts, pants, jackets, and coveralls.

Throughout its history, Dickies has been known for producing high-quality, durable workwear that can withstand the demands of manual labor. Through the 1960s and 1970s, the brand became popular among skateboarders who appreciated its rugged style and affordability.

Dickies has a long history of supporting skateboarding and has assembled a formidable team of professional skateboarders from around the world, including Ronnie Sandoval, Jamie Foy, Dylan Jaeb, Guy Mariano and Jake Hayes.

The team are actively involved in product development and help to create clothing and accessories that are specifically designed for skateboarding, with numerous signature ranges released and in development.

Dickies is proud of its association with skateboarding and is committed to supporting the sport and the skateboarding community in the years to come.

Dickies is known for using heavy-duty materials, such as cotton and poly-cotton blends, in its clothing to ensure durability and longevity.
