O’Neill was founded in 1952 by Jack O’Neill, the inventor of the neoprene wetsuit, with a mission to help surfers stay in the water longer. Today, the brand continues to lead in innovation, offering high-performance wetsuits, boardshorts, and apparel built for surf, snow, and lifestyle. Rooted in a passion for the ocean, O’Neill also champions sustainability through its Ocean Mission—promoting eco-friendly materials and marine education.
