Russell was founded over 100 years ago in Alabama where Benny Russell, son of founder Ben Russell, developed the first cotton crew neck sweatshirt on the textile market in 1930.
Today Russell is part of the Fruit of the Loom family and produces a lot of teamwear in addition to the classic shirts and sweaters. Furthermore, with the Russel Pure Organic line, a number of essentials such as shirts, polos, sweaters and hoodies in solid organic quality were launched and integrated into the range.
