SPORTS & FASHION SINCE 1917

YMR Track Club was founded in 2017 when the Olympic athlete in track & field, Peter Häggström Lindecrantz produced an anniversary collection for the sports club IK Ymer in connection with their 100th anniversary. Peter, who competed for the club throughout his sports career, got a taste for it and decided to design more garments. The result was an entire collection and the formation of YMR Track Club.

YMR Track Club

A HISTORY OF TRACK & FIELD

The club IK Ymer is also comes from Sjuhäradsbygden and was formed in 1917. The name comes from the giant Ymer in Nordic mythology. He was the athlete who carried the earth on his shoulders as earth was created in the collision between ice and fire. The club has a solid history of sports achievements in various sports on the merit list. For several years it was also a very prominent running club.

“I have loved track & field since I was a child and have competed in some of the biggest arenas around the world. My other big interest is fashion. I grew up in Sweden's textile district, Sjuhärad, where my grandfather Holger once owned a shirt factory. It feels undeniably cool to now carry on the legacy and create locally produced premium performance wear for the modern athlete."
