Founded in Sydney in 2006 by Dare Jennings, a co-founder of the iconic surf brand Mambo, Deus Ex Machina (Latin for “god from the machine”) began not just as a brand, but as a cultural statement. It was born from a desire to celebrate the creative and joyful pursuits of motorcycling and surfing, rejecting the factionalism that often divides these communities. At its core, Deus champions a philosophy of inclusivity and enthusiasm, welcoming a diverse tribe of artists, builders, surfers, and adventurers into its world. The brand's initial focus was on hand-building custom motorcycles, inspired by the vibrant custom scenes in Japan, but it quickly expanded into a full-fledged lifestyle offering.
