Wolverine inks licensing pact with Olympia Sports

Wolverine, the footwear and apparel company, has entered into a multi-year, multi-category licensing partnership with glove manufacturer Olympia Sports.

This collaboration will be including a full collection of the work-tough handwear, combining innovation and comfort with uncompromising feel and durability.

Steve Workman, Vice President of Global Product, Wolverine, said, “Wolverine is very excited to be working with the team at Olympia Sports, one of the leading creators of quality handwear. Being able to expand our brand into gloves is a unique opportunity and we are eager to partner with Olympia.”

Both companies are bringing a collection of gloves in the work, hunt/fish and casual categories. Each of these gloves will have unique benefits that align with its purpose, including safety, protection, insulation, and camouflage.

Roger Heumann, President of Olympia Sports, stated, “We build gloves that enhance people’s enjoyment of life while providing the protection and durability they rely on in a quality product. People will see Wolverine work gloves as essential equipment for their hands.”

Jeff Lee, EVP of Olympia Sports, added, “The Wolverine work-tough gloves will deliver function, fit and performance unlike any other brand in its category. This collection was developed on a foundation of integrity, endurance, and meticulous detail, mirroring the same discipline as in the development of Wolverine footwear and apparel.”
