History

Dirtbag Clothing was founded by partners Douglas Canning and John Alves during their final year as film majors at San Francisco State University. Instead of starting with a catalog like most apparel companies, Canning began with a website. From there, he went to the websites of independent record labels to get email addresses for bands that would fit his demographic and offered a 40% discount on those willing to wear their merchandise.  Recently, Dirtbag launched a new music site www.dirtbagmusic.com which allows bands to upload and sell exclusive content such as video, mp3's, tickets and merchandise.

In October 2008, Dirtbag re-launched its clothing site www.dirtbagclothing.com and added industry veteran Jim Stroesser as CEO. Jim has had executive stints at Pony, Oakley,and Nike. In November 2008 Dirtbag will be launching a secure wholesale site. Dirtbag will be offering a wide variety of tee shirts, hats, hoodies, flexfit hats. Dirtbag will offer over 50 SKUs of punk and urban clothing.
