When family tradition and passion for sport meet
The PROGRESS sportswear brand was founded by the young enthusiastic athlete and traveler Zdeněk Zunt, following not only the local South Bohemia, but also his own family history. Zdeněk says with a bit of exaggeration that he actually grew up in a textile factory that supplied half of Europe. His parents worked here and he gathered his first experiences here. In 2002, as a continuation of the family legacy and an athlete with body and soul, he founded his own brand of sportswear. The 2000s generally saw a lot of development in sportswear. At that time, people slowly began to discover and appreciate the magic of functional underwear and the unique properties of functional materials for sportswear.
Top technology
At PROGRESS, we emphasize the quality and use of top materials and the latest trends and technologies, which constantly push the limits of what is possible in the field of sportswear production. An example can be the use of the technology of glued seams, which are stronger than ordinary seams, and at the same time you do not even know about them, or the original full-color printing of functional materials, which surpasses ordinary technologies in its durability.We use new high-tech materials such as graphene, which, thanks to its atomic structure, offers a remarkable combination of properties, such as extraordinary strength, efficient heat transport and self-regulation of temperature.
Natural materials - merino, bamboo or coffee?
We also do not compromise on the sustainability of production, we use recycled materials and materials based on natural fibers such as bamboo, coffee viscose or merino wool. The popularity of natural materials among customers continues to grow. Merino wool in particular is experiencing a boom. This natural, recyclable, renewable material is long lasting and easy to maintain. Thanks to its unique properties, it is not intended specifically for specific conditions or activities. On the contrary, it is an absolutely perfect partner for year-round wear, so it is not surprising that functional underwear made of 100% merino wool is one of the most successful products of the South Bohemian company.
We support promising athletes
Today's PROGRESS offers a wide range of products for athletes of all levels, from beginners to professionals. We produce thousands of pieces of clothing every year, which we deliver to dozens of sports shops throughout the Czech Republic. Our assortment includes complete sportswear for various types of sports activities. Thanks to the use of the most modern technologies and advanced materials, all our products are designed to be maximally functional and help athletes improve their performance and use their full potential. From this point of view, it is also important for us to support professional and amateur athletes, who test their products even in extreme conditions and spread awareness of our brand throughout the world.
Each of us is an original
In short, we at PROGRESS enjoy technology, so it will certainly come as no surprise that, in addition to ready-made clothing, we also offer custom production and printing of functional clothing and custom-made accessories, both for teams or companies, and for individuals. Anyone can print a cotton T-shirt today, but we print on really functional materials in top quality PROGRESS as one of the few brands in the Czech Republic. As part of our PROGRESS original concept, we use the unique InkTransfer technology to print highly durable full-color prints in top quality on functional materials.
