ENTRIX SPORTS HISTORY

Entrix Sports was originally founded in 1995.  The original Gription Gloves created for football by Chris Jones evolved from an industrial glove that needed improvements.  The Gription Gloves, despite their crude construction, became quite popular with many top professional football players.   It was clear that a high end manufacturer was needed to proceed to the next level.  Eventually, after 3 years of searching, Entrix Sports met with Cutters Gloves; an emerging world leader in grip technology and fledgling glove company. In 2000, Entrix Sports became the exclusive distributor for Cutters Gloves in Canada.

Today, Cutters Gloves are widely regarded as the Best Football Gloves in the world.  Cutters Gloves are being purchased by NFL and CFL teams and players when they have the opportunity to receive the competitor's products for free through sponsorships.  The most amazing feature of Cutters Gloves is the famous grip known as C-TACK.  The C-TACK material is so 'grippy,' it makes you feel like you can climb walls!  Cutters Performance Gloves and Grips is producing innovative new products in many other sports, such as; baseball, golf, curling, rugby, racquet sports and fitness.  Cutters Gloves continue to amaze people with their innovation, grip, fit and performance.

Having Cutters Gloves allowed Entrix Sports to build a solid distribution network across Canada. This created relationships with professional teams, dealers, reps, suppliers, shippers, etc… These relationships were further strengthened as the interesting ‘story’ and the unique product led to many great opportunities. That, combined with the success of the Cutters line, allowed Entrix to expand its distribution network by creating strong relationships with other performance driven, innovative manufacturers.

Entrix Sports has spent great time and effort to find additional innovative new product lines to the Canadian market that would have a positive impact on the Canadian athlete and fit within the Entrix Sports philosophy. The products now included in the Entrix portfolio are Cutters Gloves, CEP Sportswear, Athletic Decals Inc, Douglas Pads, OdorOut, SportStar and Passback.  These additions have positioned Entrix within the Canadian market to continue creating positive change for athletes through innovation.
