KLABU sportswear was born from the need in refugee camps to have proper clothing to play sports. Instead of buying from other brands, we decided to create our own - Kelvin Govey, former Nike and Reebok design director, joined our team to co-found the brand and create quality designs.

Creating sportswear specifically for the athletes in the camps has the benefit that we can tell their story through our products - helping us to make sure that their voices are being heard.

By also selling sportswear to the rest of the world, we can make our story tangible and generate income. Instead of being fully reliant on donations and funding from sponsors, we want to become a healthy organisation that can have long-term impact. Developing and selling KLABU products gives us a level of independence - with a long-term goal to become fully self-sustaining.

On top of that, the more people wearing KLABU sportswear, the more we spread our story and build bridges. Wearing KLABU makes you an ambassador for people in refugee camps and their ability to keep on going, to find hope in adversity, to band together and grow.

KLABU sportswear is available online via our webshop and in our store at Haarlemmerdijk 106 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. If you are a retailer and you are interested in KLABU sportswear, please get in touch with us through info@klabu.org.

Many items within our collection of sportswear are made from recycled materials. However, currently, not 100%. Not yet. We are well aware that improvement is needed in this area and we are working hard to make this happen. We did choose to minimise our carbon footprint by producing most of our sportswear in Europe or Turkey and opted for recycled polybags for the majority of our packaging. As we scale up our organisation, we aim to make sustainability a core focus in all facets of sportswear production. Read more here.

We ship KLABU sportswear from our store in Amsterdam to all countries in the European Union and the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Canada.

At the moment, we’re unable to ship to most countries outside the EU due to ongoing international delivery challenges. In particular, government import restrictions in the United States make shipping there difficult. However, we do ship to Canada as an option for our supporters in the US.

If you’re based outside the EU but would still like to wear KLABU (which we’d love!), one option is to have your order shipped to a friend or contact within the EU. Feel free to reach out to customercare@klabu.org if you’d like to explore this.
