It all started at a Pennsylvania skate camp in the summer of 2006, when Ryan O’Connor scribbled “Rip N Dip” on kids’ skateboards that caught their attention. After seeing the young riders’ excitement, Ryan designed tees with the phrase on them which ultimately became the brand name of his skate company. The initial headquarters of the company was in Orlando, Florida until they moved to Los Angeles, California in 2018. 

With a small investment of $500 from his dad, Ryan bought a screen printer and a small stock of t-shirts, sweatshirts and jackets for his initial offering. When he began featuring the quirky and naughty cat named Lord Nermal, the products went viral. 

The first flagship store was opened in Los Angeles in August 2018 which featured the Rip N Dip iconic cat. The company’s other flagship store is in Tokyo, which stands out among other clothing shops in the city because of the naughty Lord Nermal displayed at the shop’s entrance. 

Across the globe, there are about a thousand clothing shops and boutique skate stores that carry the brand name. The printables are manufactured within L.A.; while cut-and-sew is carried out in China to keep the prices within reach of Rip N Dip’s target market. 

Collaborations 

Rip N Dip has collaborated with famous YouTubers Teddy Fresh and h3h3. Specifically, the Teddy Fresh collab hoodies, tote bags and air fresheners were big hits among Rip N Dip fans.
