Osiris is a skateboard clothing brand founded in California by Swedish skater Tony Magnusson, Brian Reid, Tony Chen and Doug Weston. Osiris was founded in 1996.[1][better source needed] Before October 2014 the company sponsored skateboarders, BMX riders and surfers.
D3
[edit]Dave Mayhew designed the shoes upper, while Brian Reid designed the D3's lower and rear. Brian later designed the D3 2001 shoes with Tony Magnusson. The design was inspired by a shopping trip with Dave Mayhew (who later endorsed the shoe) during which athletic shoes and a hiking boot were purchased.[2] The second version of the shoe, the D3 2001, became very popular. Osiris then released a lighter and less bulkier version called the D3 NTX. The D3 4.0 and a D3 Snowboarding boot followed, both influenced by the original design.
