Patrick Sportswear return to the UK
Patrick Sportswear returns to the UK as the Official Supplier of England Transplant FC.
A well-known brand for former clubs like Bolton, Southampton and West Bromich Albion. They now supply kits for professional football clubs in Belgium and France. Including, being the official supplier of the referee’s associations Union Nationale des Arbitres de Football, in Belgium.
Patrick a modern stylish brand with a History
Dating back to 1892, Patrick was founded by Patrice Beneteau originally making regular shoes and football boots. Diversifying into other sports and leisure activities through the decades, and pioneering the original 2 and 3 stripes we recognise today on brands.
Former International players like Michel Platini, Michael and Brian Laudrup and Kevin Kegan were all sponsored by Patrick. They Had bespoke boots designed for them in the 70s and 80s starting a trend that has lived on with the likes of Beckham and Ronaldo.
In 2008, they became part of the Belgium Cortina group and supplies sportswear to top-level clubs in France and Belgium. As well as being an official kit supplier to the Belgium referee’s association.
I'm thrilled to be working with Patrick Sportswear bringing this innovative and stylish brand back to the UK. So the new generation of football players can wear, play and enjoy their amazing products like i did in my childhood.
