Collection: Breaking

Panic 39 is an underground brand that supports the underground. Since 1999, breaking and street dance have been at the heart of what we do, right alongside the DJs, the writers, and the MCs who make up the rest of the culture.

Breaking started at Bronx block parties in the '70s, built by Black and Puerto Rican kids dancing to the breaks Kool Herc stretched out on two turntables. It's one of the original elements of hip hop, and it's still one of the realest.

Across the U.S. and all the way to Asia, heads tell us the same thing: seeing Panic brings back memories of old jams, battles, and nights in the circle. We're one of the few brands that stayed true to the culture instead of chasing trends.

So this is gear for the floor: padded spincaps for headspins, a spin strap to keep them locked down, knee pads and wrist wraps for power moves, plus tees, crewnecks and snapbacks to rep off the floor. Peace to every b-boy, b-girl, and crew keeping it alive.
