Overview

Polmer is a Peruvian brand of sportswear and casual clothing founded in 1990 by brothers Alfonso and Misael Quinteros. Before launching Polmer, the Quinteros brothers made children's clothing, but production stalled during the economic crisis of the 1990s. They conducted market research on sportswear brands and decided to create their own. Their breakthrough came when they gave the first tracksuits they produced—styled after Russian tracksuits—to the players of Universitario, who trained at the Estadio Lolo Fernández. From then on, the players wore the brand and appeared on magazine covers with it. Polmer gradually established itself in the textile sector and went on to outfit the Peruvian national football team in 1992, when the team traveled to Paraguay for the Pre-Olympic tournament. Over the years, Polmer has dressed prominent Peruvian football clubs including Alianza Lima, Sporting Cristal, and Sport Boys, as well as the Peru national football team. The brand currently has a presence in Peru, the United States, and Colombia. Polmer remains a privately held company and continues to operate in the sportswear and casual apparel market.

History

Their first tracksuits, styled after Russian tracksuits, were given to the players of Universitario, who trained at the Estadio Lolo Fernández. From that point on, the players wore the brand and appeared on magazine covers with it. Polmer gradually carved out a space in the textile sector and went on to outfit the Peruvian national team in 1992, when the team traveled to Paraguay for the Pre-Olympic tournament.
