Got the small size for my 4 year old and they fit perfectly.
Celebrating 10 years living no ordinary life
From our first catalogue shoot and those game-changing designs and prints, to spreading DHaRCO vibes worldwide, attending events, expanding our offices overseas, and working with amazing ambassadors worldwide – including some of the biggest names in the sport, we look back at the key moments from our journey so far.
TIMELINE OF SOME KEY MILESTONES OVER THE PAST DECADE
SHOWING FIRST RANGE AT CAIRNS
10 years ago, we drove 2500km's from Sydney to Cairns in a Hyundai iLoad to launch our first range at the UCI DH World Cup.
That would be the first of many events where we'd meet new friends, ambassadors, connections and sample a bunch of newly explored riding trails and courses across the globe.
FIRST OFFICIAL PHOTOSHOOT
Setting the scene in our backyard on the northern beaches of Sydney we gathered round a bunch of friends & went riding.
A mix of trails running along the ocean and others around the national park would form the basis for our 2014 collection.
PARTY SHIRT JERSEY
In 2016 the DHaRCO party vibes really kicked off with this print as it quickly became a favourite amongst riders, standing out from the pack and giving us the confidence to continue exploring "louder" pieces across our range.
FROM HOME GARAGE TO THE "SHRED"
With the range expanding we had outgrown the home garage by 2018 and moved into a spacious shed up the road. This became the base for the next few years and provided plenty of memorable gatherings.
It was also the catalyst for our first official staff to join and build out the DHaRCO team.
KYLE REPS AT RAMPAGE
Our first event at Red Bull Rampage saw Kyle Strait represent the brand in 2019. This helped bring DHaRCO to a global audience, especially in the States.
Kyle joining the team was a holy %&*! moment, and to this day Kyle is our dear friend and forever part of the DHaRCO family.
GRAVITY PANTS AN INSTANT CLASSIC
We unleashed the DHaRCO Gravity pants for the 2020 season and they quickly became a staple. Since then they've featured in a multitude of colours and prints such as the infamous leopard and loud tie dye colourways.
As we say in the office, good times are always had in gravity pants!
THE COMMENCAL MUC-OFF TEAM SIGNS ON
In 2021 we partnered with one of the worlds best DH teams, Commencal Muc Off - featuring Amaury Pierron & Myriam Nicole.
This milestone brought us the thrill of Myriam's world championship and Amaury's multiple World Cup victories and overall title - and elevated the DHaRCO brand worldwide.
CANADIAN OFFICE
With a love for the annual Whistler Bike Park pilgrimage, it seemed only fitting to establish our first overseas office and showroom in Squamish.
In October 2021, the Canadian branch was born. Embracing the Sea to Sky region with its great vibes and epic riding, we love being a part of this community and now have the perfect excuse to visit more often. 😉
ICONIC VEGEMITE kit for connor fearon
Making cool custom gear tailored for our key athletes is a specialty. For Crankworx Cairns 2022, we collaborated with Connor to bring his dream kit to life - the Vegemite-inspired design.
Connor Fearon was our second professional team rider and has been a significant part of the family since those early days.
OPENING OF THE EUROPEAN HQ
In November 2022, we began shipping from our own warehouse in the Netherlands, making DHaRCO more accessible and allowing us to connect with our European community.
Our dedicated EU crew now attends events, works with retailers, ships our online orders and is spreading the stoke of living 'No Ordinary Life'.
PARTY SHIRTS BRING THE PARTY
With the launch of our tech party shirts in 2023 we created a perfect excuse for riding your favourite trails and combining that with some post ride chills.
Our wardrobes have never been the same: good vibes on and off the bike everyday.
GLOBAL TEAM SUMMIT
The DHaRCO team from across the globe got together for plenty of ripping and sipping at the 2024 Cannonball event.
This was an opportunity to show our overseas team members the downunder vibes and plan for world domination 😜
We also welcomed the Commencal Muc-Off team to Sydney for a good dose of beach vibes.

Thanks for being a part of our story and helping to build the MTB community. Cheers to the next 10 years of sharing the stoke and bringing as many people along for the ride as we can!
