Li-Ning, 361° and Chinese sportswear.
From an Olympic gymnast’s brand to the kit of world champions: a first look at two Chinese sports brands.
An Olympic gymnast’s brand
Li-Ning was founded in 1990 by Li Ning, the Olympic gymnast known as the ‘Prince of Gymnastics’. Today the brand outfits China’s national table tennis and badminton teams.
Made for the court
Our Li-Ning range includes the MAGE PE player edition of world champion Wang Chuqin, the Saga 3 Pro badminton shoe and the Volt training jacket in the design of the Chinese national table tennis team.
Running shoes from Xiamen
361° was founded in Xiamen, Fujian, in 2003. We carry its Kairos 4 stability shoe, the cushioned Ventus 2 and the Taroko 5 trail shoe, plus a hoodie from the signature line of NBA MVP Nikola Jokic.
