ABOUT DBFounded in 2015 by Vicky and Charisse Pasche, Dapper Boi is more than just a clothing line; it’s a movement towards inclusivity and diversity in fashion. By blending style, comfort, and a commitment to breaking conventional fashion barriers, Dapper Boi ensures that clothing is not only a fit for your body but also an extension of your personality. Their apparel line is a tribute to self-love, authenticity, and the courage to be oneself, making fashion accessible and enjoyable for everyone, irrespective of gender, body type, or style preference.
“We’re not just trying to change the way we view fashion; we’re trying to change the way we view each other. We are all people beyond labels and categories… what matters most is feeling at home in your own skin, feeling like you’re being seen and accepted not for what you are but who you are. And while clothing may not be the answer, it’s certainly a catalyst. Clothing that fits our authentic selves can imbue confidence, inspire change, and help us show up in the world at our best.”

Behind the Brand
At the heart of San Diego’s bustling e-commerce scene, Dapper Boi stands tall, not just as a brand, but as a revolutionary force. Founded by Vicky and Charisse Pasche (Posh-AH) during their honeymoon, this mission-driven apparel line was born from genuine necessity—a gap in the market for authentic, body-inclusive clothing.
Dapper Boi’s trajectory from a crowdfunded endeavor to a seven-figure company in a mere five years isn’t just about numbers; it’s a testament to resilience, innovation, and unwavering dedication to inclusivity. Amidst staggering statistics, with only 2% of VC funds backing women and an even smaller percentage for LGBTQ+ founders, Dapper Boi has not only survived but thrived, emerging as a top contender among 2.2 million Shopify stores.
Their impressive growth, marked by a staggering $4M in lifetime sales and an army of 30,000 loyal customers, underlines a singular fact: authenticity resonates. Recognized by industry giants like Forbes, CNN, and Entrepreneur, Dapper Boi’s ethos—offering high-quality, stylish clothing that makes every individual feel seen and valued—stands unshaken. It’s more than fashion; it’s a movement towards a more inclusive tomorrow.
