Administrative history
Bukta was founded as E.R. Buck & Sons by Edward Robinson Buck in 1879, Stockport, Greater Manchester. They were making football kit by at least 1884 when the Nottingham Forest team were photographed wearing Bukta. They became a leading producer of tents, camping equipment and uniforms for the Scout movement along with sportswear. The family sold the company in 1982 and in 2005 the label was relaunched.
