Craft Sportswear: Functionality, Innovation, and Sustainability.
Craft has been developing functional sportswear since 1973, when founder Anders Bengtsson tested his very first moisture-wicking base layer. Since then, the core mission has remained clear: to optimize performance, regulate body temperature, and ensure maximum comfort in all weather conditions. For over four decades, the brand has delivered innovative gear tailored for both professional arenas and everyday workouts.
Today, Craft is an integral part of Norwegian sports. Through close and long-standing collaborations with elite athletes across both winter and summer sports, the products are developed and tested under the most demanding conditions nature has to offer. Every single piece of equipment is the result of thorough research, innovation, and countless hours of testing. This invaluable insight from top-tier sports is transferred directly into the collections to create training and competition gear that offers optimal functionality, durability, and freedom of movement—whether you are a professional athlete or a dedicated everyday enthusiast.
In addition to premium apparel, Craft has invested heavily in the development of technical running shoes in recent years. Applying the same uncompromising dedication to innovation and performance, they now offer a strong footwear range divided into three main segments: Trail for maximum grip in demanding terrain, Road to Trail for seamless transitions between asphalt and gravel roads, and Road for optimal speed, response, and cushioning on hard surfaces. Regardless of the distance, the shoes are meticulously designed to give runners of all levels the best possible foundation to achieve their goals.
Sustainability and responsible production are central to Craft's philosophy. The most important measure to reduce environmental impact is creating robust products with a long lifespan. Therefore, all gear is designed with a strong focus on quality and timelessness. Furthermore, Craft continuously explores and integrates more eco-friendly materials, such as recycled polyester, into their collections. Additionally, the company enforces a strict restricted substance list (RSL) to systematically phase out and replace harmful chemicals throughout the entire production chain. The ultimate goal is that world-class, functional sports equipment should never compromise the environment.
