The DGK team

DGK Skateboards has had a top-notch team from the very beginning. The awarded "Best Skate Team" award from Transworld SKATEboarding Magazine is no coincidence. When Stevie Williams brought Josh Kalis on board in 2009, arguably Philadelphia's most influential Love Park skaters were back under one roof.

Completing the pro team are extremely talented skaters like Chaz Ortiz, Marquise Henry, Boo Johnson, John Shanahan, Dane Vaughn, Dwayne Fagundes and Kevin Bilyeu.

A brand for skaters who had nothing - the story of DGK

The slogan used by DGK "for those who come from nothing" goes back to Stevie Williams' roots. Stevie grew up in Philadelphia and like almost every skater there, he spent a lot of time in Love Park. The central spot in the city quickly became the second home of Stevie and his friends. In the local skate scene they soon got the name Dirty Ghetto Kids, a reference to the boys' origins, who come from the city's shady neighborhoods.

In the meantime, Stevie has realized the "American Dream" and the products of DGK are not only found in stores worldwide, but are also worn by rappers and celebrities like 2 Chainz, Lil Wayne or Justin Bieber. However, the label never lost touch with its roots and is still firmly anchored in the skateboard world.
