Peak Performance is a Swedish sports clothing brand specializing in ski and hiking clothing. The brand was founded in 1986, in Åre, Sweden, and is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden.[1]
The company's name "Peak Performance" reflects the brand's focus on creating technical apparel for performance in a variety of skiing conditions including freeride,[2] piste,[3] and freestyle.
The brand was founded in 1986 by professional skiers Stefan Engström, Peter Blom and Christer Mårtensson in Åre.[4]
In 1998 it was bought by the Danish company Carli Gry International, later part of the IC Group.[5]
In 1999, the brand relocated its headquarters to the Frihamnen port area of Stockholm, Sweden, where its global design teams are based.[1]
In 2018, the brand was acquired by Amer Sports,[6] and in 2019, the brand became part of Chinese Anta Sports' portfolio when Anta led a consortium that purchased Amer Sports.[7]
