Russell

Russell Athletic is an American brand with over 120 years of history, deeply rooted in the heritage of sport and sportswear. Founded in 1902 by Benjamin Russell in Alexander City, Alabama, as Russell Manufacturing Company, the company initially produced knitted shirts for women and children. The breakthrough moment was the brand’s invention in 1930 of the classic “crew neck sweatshirt,” which revolutionized the comfort and durability of sportswear.

For decades, Russell Athletic became a leading producer of clothing and uniforms for sports teams in the United States, dressing both amateurs and professionals. The brand also supplied clothing for the American army during World War II. Since 2006, Russell Corporation has been part of the Fruit of the Loom family. Russell Athletic is a brand with rich tradition, symbolizing authenticity, quality, and comfort, especially valued in the classic sportswear segment and team clothing.
