About Us

Pursue Fitness was founded in 2013 by our CEO Michael Hughes when he was 18, in Bolton, United Kingdom

Whilst out with lifelong friends, Michael proposed the idea of starting a sportswear brand, he knew the name straight away. Within a few months, he saved £300 from his part-time job at Nando's, then a sample-sized order was placed with a supplier for 4 different products. 

Products were designed by him, orders were packed by him, queries were answered by him and the brand was grown by him. 

Since then, Pursue Fitness has shipped orders to over 160 countries and released more than 2,000 products.

The Idea

"Never give up."

Our niche is a name, brand and idea that makes sense - to everybody.

Whether you run, walk, train or play sports. We've got you covered. We strive to develop collections based on what you need, both physically and mentally.


The History

From day one.


2013

Pursue Fitness is born in Horwich, Bolton.

Michael released the first 4 products online. It wasn't easy, but they sold out within a few months.

The demand for new products increased and the brand started to be recognised.

2014

Our online and social media presence grows.

New products are developed for both men and women and we begin to establish our vision.

We attend our first Exhibitions starting with Bodypower in Birmingham and SFN in Glasgow.

We move into a bigger warehouse, based in Wigan.

We collaborate with more athletes including Amanda Finnie, Jeff Seid, Obi Vincent, Collin Wayne, Lewis and Owen Harrison, Justin St Paul, and Seid Sergeyevich.

We attend the Arnold Classic Expo for the first time, as well as Bodypower earlier in the year.

More technical products are developed by our growing team and released throughout the year.

2016

Our mission becomes clear: we're committed to creating premium activewear at an affordable price point.

We didn’t realize at the time that this collection would alter the course of everything.

Following the success from the Adapt Seamless release we launch the Impulse Seamless collection which is an instant hit.

COVID-19 grips the world. We do our best to navigate the changes, whilst maintaining on-time order fulfilment, and the release of new collections.

We experience sell-outs with every restock as we strive to meet the overwhelming demand.


2021

After a whirlwind of a year, we focus on what works.

Our strength lies with unique seamless products for women, that are premium quality pieces at an affordable price-point.
