About Castore
Kit by sport
Running gear includes lightweight jackets, shorts and base layers. Golfers get layering pieces for the course, and there are tennis and training ranges too. Everyday items such as hoodies, tracksuits and technical tees bridge the gym and the street, and performance footwear rounds things off. Fabrics are chosen for stretch, breathability and moisture control, and compression pieces are available for harder sessions.
Team and club ranges
Castore partners with motorsport names McLaren F1 and Red Bull Racing, football clubs Newcastle United and Rangers, and several cricket and rugby sides. Design happens in Britain, while manufacturing takes place in factories around the world.
