Mizuno
Inspired by his love of baseball following a trip to the U.S., founder Rihachi Mizuno established Mizuno in 1906 hoping to increase interest in the quintessential American sport inside Japan. While it started out selling mostly baseball gear, over the next 70 years Mizuno would expand its offering greatly, creating equipment and clothing for tennis, golf, skiing, track and field, boxing, soccer, and less widely played sports like handball.
During the 1980s, Mizuno made developments that would contribute to making the brand what it is today. Each Mizuno garment is meticulously crafted to ensure durability, functionality, and optimal fit. The brand combines technical features with ergonomic designs to provide athletes and adventurers with the best possible performance and comfort.
Mizuno integrates cutting-edge technologies into its outdoor clothing. For example, their apparel often incorporates moisture-wicking fabrics to keep the wearer dry and comfortable during intense activities. Additionally, the clothing may feature breathable panels or ventilation systems to enhance airflow and regulate body temperature.
Mizuno believes in the values of sport, and the same values form and cultivate the corporate culture of which the brand is proud: friendship, team spirit, fair play, and respect for others. When encouraged to be innovative, an energetic and motivating corporate culture will foster.
