KIT Design 1998–2021
Garmentec 2021–present
KIT Design was founded in Chesterfield, Derbyshire in 1998. The company worked in partnership with the Metropolitan Police to develop a range of ‘fit for purpose’ high-performance work uniforms and clothing in response to a demand for advanced technical clothing specifically within the UK police force. In 2000, following the delivery of custom-made police cycling uniforms throughout the UK, the company expanded into other areas of technical workwear. This included the development of the X-Form equipment vest. KIT Design moved to the premises of Sheffield uniform company Style Workwear in 2014. Style Workwear rebranded to Style Uniforms in 2017, and a parent company called Garmentec was established. In 2021, Style Uniforms and KIT Design formally merged to become Garmentec, the parent company’s new name.
