Ellesse Ambria Boxers

Ellesse is an iconic Italian heritage brand originally founded by Leonardo Servadio in 1959 in Perugia, Italy. The name 'Ellesse' itself is derived from the Italian pronunciation of the founder's initials, 'L.S.' (elle-esse). While the brand has its roots deep in Italian sportswear and ski culture, it has been owned by the British-based Pentland Group since 1987.

Today, Ellesse operates as a global lifestyle brand under the stewardship of Pentland Brands, which also manages other major labels like Speedo and Berghaus. Manufacturing for Ellesse products, including the Ambria Boxers shown here, typically takes place across various international locations, including Asia (such as China, Bangladesh, or India) and Turkey, depending on the specific product line and regional licensing agreements. The brand continues to maintain its 'Italian flair' while being managed and distributed by a global network of partners.
