About Russell Athletic

Russell Athletic traces its roots to the Russell Manufacturing Company, incorporated in 1902 with Benjamin Russell as president. Russell became part of the Fruit of the Loom group, which acquired Russell Corp. in 2006. In Europe the brand was previously known as Russell Europe and now operates under the Russell Athletic® name, with a range designed for decoration.

The Authentic range covers hooded sweatshirts, zipped hoods, sweatshirt jackets, ¼-zip sweats and jog pants. Polo shirts include classic cotton piqué, classic polycotton, ultimate classic cotton, stretch and hard-wearing 60°C wash polos. T-shirts come in classic heavyweight ringspun, super ringspun, long-sleeve, workwear and pure organic versions, with classic, set-in and heavy-duty sweatshirts, softshells and shells.

Businesses, schools and trades choose Russell for hard-wearing basics, such as polos that can take a 60°C wash. See Russell Collection for business shirts.
