DVS Shoe Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The DVS Shoe Company was founded in 1995 by Kevin Dunlap and professional skateboarder Tim Gavin. DVS is a footwear company based out of Torrance, California. DVS is owned by Podium Distribution. They originally made men's skateboard specific shoes, but today they have expanded their footwear line with shoes for women, kids, and toddlers. Shoe models are no longer restricted to skateboarding, they now include sandals, slippers, wake shoes, and fashion-based designs. They also have a full clothing line.
Their team has expanded as well from sponsoring just skateboarders, now to snowboard, wakeboard, wakeskate, motocross, surf, and race car teams.
