About Us
“Patrick, l’Esprit du Sport”, originally a French brand, was founded in 1892 by Patrick Benetau. With a lifespan of over a hundred years, it can look back on an extremely rich history. At its peek in the 60ies, 70ies and 80ies, “Patrick” was widely known and was not only worn by famous soccer players like Platini, Keegan, Papin and Laudrup but also present in volley, rugby, cycling and squash.
In 2008, the Cortina Group, a Belgian shoe specialist, took the brand under its wings and has ever since been working on its come-back. Featuring a wide range of products, “Patrick” is re-introducing footwear and teamwear of superior quality at razor-sharp prices for both amateur and professional football players, and with fast-growing success. Apart from its vast collection, ranging from teamwear and shoes to bags and accessories, with a cool heritage line and fashionable lifestyle on the side, “Patrick” offers everything its customers need: high quality, sharp prices, a constant stock level, quick delivery and a fully-fledged customer service center operating in 8 languages. The brand is turning yet another page in its long history and well on its way to become a major player in teamsport, once again.
