Melbourne-born surfer turned fashion visionary credited with designing ‘yoke waist’ boardshorts
The surfing community is paying tribute to the Quiksilver founder Alan “Greeny” Green, who died from cancer on Tuesday at his home in Torquay, Victoria aged 77.
Considered a pioneer of surfwear, Green started making wetsuits in 1969 along with friends and Rip Curl co-founders Brian Singer and Doug “Claw” Warbrick.
