Volcom is one of those brands that does skate, snow and surf equally well – if you need proof, check out their recent video masterpiece True To This. Its mountain gear doesn’t really have a niche, as the range goes from low-spec right up to full Gore-Tex, but it certainly has a style that’s helped it garner huge loyalty from customers. They’re not alone; legends Terje Haakonsen, Jamie Lynn and Bryan Iguchi are all still repping ‘the stone’ after all these years too. Volcom can produce low-key pieces as good as the next brand, but where it really excels is with those unique, eye-catching garments that you won’t find anywhere else. Case in point: the Patch jacket, pictured below.
