Columbia

The American brand is known worldwide for its warm clothing and footwear for active sports and outdoor recreation.

“At Columbia, we believe that outdoor recreation is not only about the toughest expeditions and conquering the world’s highest peaks. We believe that anyone can enjoy nature. You just have to open the door and step outside,” the brand says.

We recommend paying attention to the sleek warm parkas and non-slip boots, which will come in handy in the city too.

Title Boxing - clothing and gear for boxing

Title Boxing was founded in the USA in 1998 by former regional silver and gold boxing champion Tony Carbajo and his partner David Hanson. The brand’s motto is: “Boxing gear designed by boxers,” and that is truly the case.

Today, the Title brand is known worldwide as the main competitor to Everlast. Their boxing gloves and MMA gloves are considered one of the best options for hard training focused on developing striking technique.

These gloves are made using Gel technology — an alternative to standard multi-layer foam. The same technology is used as the main filling for helmets, protective gear, and pads.⠀

Teva

The history of Teva began with the production of the world’s first sports sandals designed for long walks in hot and humid places. Today, the Teva range is much broader — footwear for water sports, trekking, reinforced and insulated boots for the autumn-winter season and outdoor activities for adults and children, as well as stylish casual everyday shoes. There are shoes for children for every season.

In production, the company uses its own technological developments and designs. Teva’s philosophy is based on comfort, reliability, and functionality.

In addition to the official store, Teva shoes can be bought at 6pm, Amazon, Zappos, rei.(com), and other sports clothing and footwear stores.
