I have some linen RVCA shorts that are pretty fratty looking. Other than those, I have no idea what RVCA carries.

Etymology
The logotype for RVCA portrays the letter A without a crossbar, resembling an uppercase lambda. The 'V' character is a 'U' written in traditional Roman script. Occasionally "RVCA" is written in a different script or appears in art where it is clear that the true name is 'Rvca'. The name resembles ????a (upper case: ?????), pronounced ['ru xa]. The RVCA logo is based on the two chevrons, the V & the A, representing the brands ethos "The Balance of Opposites" as stated by RVCA founder PM Tenore. [2]
History
RVCA was founded in 2001 by Pat Tenore and Conan Hayes, a professional surfer from Hawaii.[3][4][5] Billabong International Limited purchased RVCA in July 2010.[6]
Culture
RVCA is closely associated with skateboard and surf culture; the company sponsors a skateboard and surf team. RVCA clothing is found in skateboard/surf shops and numerous other shops.
Because of its art focus, RVCA is also associated with the street graffiti subculture. RVCA is involved with various contemporary art galleries such as KNOWN Gallery.
