… One afternoon at the firehouse I was sitting at the kitchen table drinking a cup of coffee, trying to come up with a good tattoo design for a firefighter on my crew. I was drawing an axe on a paper napkin when someone walked by and said, "Hey, that would make a cool t-shirt," and that's how RIDE BACKWARDS was born.

At RIDE BACKWARDS, our intent is to provide firefighters a place where they can go online, order quality firefighter workout apparel and have it delivered to their door. That's what we're about. It's hard to find a good t-shirt that both fits and performs well in a variety of environments. We have worked hard to develop quality products and bring them to you at a decent price. We feature only original designs that you will not find anywhere else.

RIDE BACKWARDS is a firefighter-owned and operated company out of Chicago, IL, small in size but big in service. We are directly accountable to our customers - no inquiry or order will get lost in the shuffle.

Check us out from time to time. We're starting small and keeping it simple, so we can get it right. As we continue to research and seek out new & better designs and apparel we will make them available to you ASAP. Thanks for reading this, stay safe, and always bring a chock.
