About Us
In 1974 Gregory Hind, an elite athlete and member of the Cal Poly University water polo team, founded HIND. Swim accessories were his original and patented products, followed by competition and active swimwear apparel. These products provided the basis and foundation for future HIND apparel. His goal was to provide performance fabrics, quality construction and functional apparel to athletes at an affordable price.
The use of HIND's innovations in materials, fit and construction features has always been the foundation for the line's development. From the beginning, consumers have seen the value and integrity that has made HIND products so famous.
Throughout the 1980's, HIND introduced a number of popular classics that remain in the line today: the HIND Sportight, the HIND Animal Short and the HIND Munich Tight. This was followed by the introduction of our DryLete fabric, a cornerstone fabric in the line today.
Hind, a subsidiary of The Stride Rite Corporation, is a leading innovator of technical apparel for athletes. Founded in 1974, Hind continues to define the industry's standards for performance apparel.
HIND, over the past few years, has been solidifying its internal assets with an outstanding employee team and has implemented forward-thinking changes. The direction of the brand has been evident in the positive changes in many styles and designs. HIND has fulfilled the aesthetic needs of the market with bold designs, modern colors and spirited prints, targeting a fashion-savvy, yet technically demanding market. HIND is one of the few brands that effectively and authentically markets several different categories under one brand. The use of HIND's innovations in materials, fit and construction features have always been and will remain the foundation for the line's development.
