Boathouse Sports

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 🇺🇸

Founded in 1976 by two-time Olympian John Strotbeck, Boathouse Sports has spent nearly half a century cementing its status as a cornerstone of American athletic apparel. Headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the brand remains one of the few elite performance wear companies to maintain its own factory right here in the United States.

What began as a mission to create the perfect technical jacket for rowers has evolved into a comprehensive line of outerwear designed for athletes, teams, and outdoor enthusiasts who refuse to compromise on quality or origin.

The Product Lineup

Boathouse is defined by its "Made in USA" commitment, ensuring that every stitch meets rigorous standards of durability and functionality. Their collection includes:

  • Outerwear & Coats: From the iconic Stevenson Jacket to modern weather-resistant shells, their coats are engineered to withstand the elements while maintaining breathability.

  • Sweatshirts & Hoodies: Designed for the "grind," their mid-layers offer a balance of warmth and athletic mobility, transitioning seamlessly from the training field to the street.

  • Performance Tops: A range of base layers, polos, and technical tees built with advanced moisture-wicking fabrics.

  • Bottoms: Durable training pants, tights, and shorts tailored for high-intensity movement and long-term wear.

The Boathouse Edge

By keeping their manufacturing in Philadelphia, Boathouse bypasses the delays of global supply chains, allowing for unmatched customization and rapid turnaround for elite collegiate and professional teams.

The brand stands as a testament to the power of local craftsmanship, proving that high-tech, world-class athletic gear can—and should—be built on American soil. Whether on the Schuylkill River or in stadiums across the country, Boathouse Sports continues to gear up those who value authentic, domestic excellence.
