WHAT IS ROXY?
Roxy is a part of the biggest surfing scene in the world. Back when
surfing wasn't as cool as it is today (in other words, before girls
started surfing more) mostly guys were the wave shredders. Then a few
years ago some cool chicks introduced their new line of surf gear for
girls to Quiksilver International, the biggest surf/skate/snow supplier.

Roxy was born soon after... Roxy was the first to bring about girl's
boardshorts, which can be seen everywhere at the beaches today. Plus
girl boards, rash guards, wetsuits, and even a new line of clothes
geared towards the "surfer girl".
Roxy has struck a deal with DeLiA*s of NY to market some original
outfits for the clothing company, so get your free catalog by e-mailing
DeLiA*s! You can find Roxy clothes at Nordstroms, Macy*s, Boardrider's
Club, Jack's Surf Shop (HuntingtonBeach), and Huntington Surf and Sport
(in Newport Beach and Huntington).
