Mitre: Established in England in 1817, Mitre has been around since the dawn of professional sport, and is still present whenever Football, Rugby, Netball or Cricket is being played. Mitre strives to be the people’s sports brand, built on twin foundations of heritage and technical expertise. Our world class products combine the highest technical performance with a sense of history to bring the Mitre brand alive for the current generation and those to follow. Overall, Mitre values the team. And we realize it takes two teams to make a game. So although we passionately want to win, it’s never at all costs. That would be letting the side down, both sides in fact. It’s this quality that gives people the confidence to play.
