Animal

Animal is a popular UK based sports clothing brand, which started in 1987. Besides clothes, the brand is also involved in making watches, eyewear, footwear, luggage and accessories. Animal dates back its origin to the inconvenience faced by two surfers who often lost their watches while surfing because the straps would break in rough conditions. In their attempt to resolve the problem, they made webbing and Velcro straps, which remained on their hands and would not fall off, even in the waters.

Later, both surfers began producing these unique straps and selling them in the surfer community. These straps soon became a rage among the surfers because of their durability and reliability. Success of these straps led to the birth of the brand, Animal. From straps, the brand moved on to making watches for the adventure enthusiasts.

Today, Animal creates sports specific clothing for snowboarders, skateboarders, windsurfers, mountain bikers and kite surfers. All designer Animal clothing gets tested by the Animal pro team to ensure that they last through the roughest of conditions. Animal line of clothing caters both men as well as women. Animal surf clothing line is extremely popular among surfers. Other items like footwear, watches, eye wear and accessories can be bought from different Animal clothing UK stores and dealers.
