Onda is an Portuguese sportswear brand founded in Barcelos, Portugal. It is the official Olympic Committee of Portugal's sportswear provider. [1][2]
History
The brand Onda started in Barcelos, Portugal, in 1999. The company group, P&R Têxteis, S.A.[3], that already produced sports equipment for over 20 years, decided to create its own sportswear brand. It was named Onda (which means, in Portuguese, Wave), associating it with the sea and aquatic sports. The first equipment to be produced were essentially for thermal protection.[4]
