Jockey Underwear and Apparel

Jockey is a historic American brand founded in 1876 by Samuel T. Cooper. Originally established as a hosiery company to support lumberjacks, it evolved significantly over the decades, notably inventing the first men's Y-front brief in 1934, which revolutionized the underwear industry. Today, the brand is synonymous with comfort and quality in basic apparel, including underwear, sleepwear, and activewear for men, women, and children.

While the brand originated in the United States, its manufacturing operations are highly globalized to meet international demand. Jockey products are manufactured in multiple countries across Asia, Central America, and Africa, including locations like India, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. The brand remains a privately held family company headquartered in Kenosha, Wisconsin, ensuring its legacy and quality standards are maintained across its global licensing and distribution networks.
