U.S. Polo Assn.’s continued record growth resulted from expanding its existing footprint across all regions around the world. U.S. Polo Assn. delivered steady growth in North America, the brand’s largest market, and continued to gain market share in the other established regions of Western Europe, Middle East and Latin America. In addition, U.S. Polo Assn. is significantly growing in emerging markets for the brand such as Asia Pacific and Eastern Europe. Finally, U.S. Polo Assn. is considered the largest and fastest growing menswear brand in India, with the brand targeting a billion dollars of retail sales in the country in the coming years. U.S. Polo Assn. will also be actively launching several new strategic markets in 2025 including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Poland and Thailand.

U.S. Polo Assn. continues to climb the retail ranks as one of the largest global licensed sports brands in the world, ranking in the top five alongside the NFL, MLB, and NBA, according to License Global.

“The strength of our sport-inspired brand, great quality products and overall global momentum has resulted in yet another record year for U.S. Polo Assn.,” explained J. Michael Prince, President and CEO of USPA Global, the company that manages and markets the multi-billion-dollar U.S. Polo Assn. brand globally. “Our biggest growth engine for U.S. Polo Assn. around the world is our direct-to-consumer sales, whether that’s in our sport-inspired stores or through our branded e-commerce sites, which enable consumers to engage with the brand and our authentic connection to the sport.”

“For U.S. Polo Assn., our significant growth in direct-to-consumer channels can be directly attributed to our strategic initiatives to enhance customer engagement and build brand awareness in ways that improve the overall customer experience,” added Prince.

U.S. Polo Assn.’s robust growth strategy includes a relentless focus on retail store expansion worldwide. The brand has grown its global fleet to over 1,100 U.S. Polo Assn. stores, targeting some 1,500 by 2030.

Flagship locations are being enhanced or opening in markets all over the world, offering curated selections of U.S. Polo Assn. clothing and accessories for men, women and kids.

In addition, U.S. Polo Assn. continues to build on its successful digital strategies to generate record growth in e-commerce with some 50 brand sites in 20 languages.

U.S. Polo Assn. has further expanded its digital presence across the top social media platforms, with over 10 million followers worldwide demonstrating additional global momentum.

“We remain committed to entering new partnerships and opportunities to drive our international market expansion and grow our product category offerings while also elevating our global brand strategy, strengthening our strategic sports relationships and philanthropic mission while deepening our authentic connection to the sport of polo,” Prince concludes.

The brand’s relationship with ESPN now runs through 2026 with a recent extension, bringing the thrilling sport to a large global audience and making polo accessible to millions of households and multiple digital channels. The sport’s illustrious U.S. Open Polo Championship®, which is broadcast by ESPN and hosted this year by legendary ESPN commentator Chris Fowler, now sits alongside the elite company of The Masters and the Kentucky Derby as one of the country’s most prestigious Spring sporting events. In addition, an iconic deal was signed with Star Sports India to broadcast several of the premier polo championships in the world, sponsored by U.S. Polo Assn, alongside Wimbledon, Premier League Soccer and India Premier League (IPL) Cricket.

The USPA National Polo Center (NPC), the sport’s premier destination in North America, brought record crowds and sellout Sundays for the 2024-2025 American High-Goal Polo Season, with the best polo in the world from January through April. The stunning venue, now owned by the USPA, is situated in beautiful Palm Beach County, Florida, spans 160 acres, and encompasses multiple grass polo fields, fine dining, tennis courts, stadium seating, swimming pool, and the newly renovated USPA Shop. This Flagship location is an elevated consumer experience filled with rich polo heritage and fashion, boasting a diverse curated collection of sport-inspired and luxury merchandise.

“I have never been more confident and optimistic about the U.S. Polo Assn. global business increasing our market presence and growing our leadership position, with the near-term goal of passing $3 billion in worldwide sales and 1,500 U.S. Polo Assn. retail stores by 2030,” Prince concludes.

An Electric Game Watched Live by a Record-Breaking Crowd
Thousands of fans at NPC witnessed the action-packed final game of the Gauntlet of Polo® tournament series, which included the C.V. Whitney Cup®, the USPA Gold Cup®, and the U.S. Open Polo Championship. In a year that delivered record-breaking crowds week in and week out, the thrilling final was filled with great plays from the world’s best players on both teams, La Dolfina Tamera featuring 10-goal player Adolfo Cambiaso; Diego Cavanagh; Matt Coppola; and Alejandro Poma, and La Dolfina Catamount featuring 10-goal player Poroto Cambiaso; Jesse Bray; Rufino Merlos and Scott Devon. For the second year in a row, the U.S. Open Polo Championship Final presented an epic showdown between two of the world’s top polo players who are also father and son.

Adolfo, age 50, who has been defeated in the last two U.S. Open Finals, the last one being to his son, Poroto, age 19, reclaimed victory in this game to take home his 10th U.S. Open title. It was just this week that Adolfo turned 50, thus reclaiming the championship trophy as his perfect birthday present. Adolfo is considered the best polo player in history, having also won more than 17 titles in the Argentine Open Polo Championship, and is considered the “Greatest of All Time (GOAT)” beside other sports icons such as Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, and Tom Brady.

After some clutch goals by Poma in chukkers 3,4, and 5 and an impressive long goal from Adolfo, Tamera continued to have the lead. Though Poroto scored an incredible 5 goals overall, and Bray scored in the 6th and final chukker, both of Catamount, to bring it to 11-8, there just wasn’t enough time for a comeback. Tamera clinched their win with a thrilling goal by Coppola to make the final score 12-8. La Dolfina Tamera’s Poma won MVP, scoring a team-high 4 goals, with Adolfo scoring 3 goals.

“Congratulations to La Dolfina Tamera on a remarkable victory in the U.S. Open Polo Championship,” said Stewart Armstrong, Chairman of the USPA. “I would also like to thank and acknowledge all participating teams throughout the 2025 Season at NPC for leaving it all on the field for the sport.”

“Thank you to all of our patrons, players, sponsors, and sports fans for their passion and support for the sport of polo and the USPA this season,” Armstrong added.

U.S. Polo Assn. Renews as Official Apparel Partner for the 2025 Dubai Polo Gold Cup

U.S. Polo Assn., the official brand of the United States Polo Association (USPA), proudly served as the Official Apparel Sponsor of the 2025 Dubai Polo Gold Cup for the second year in a row. The prestigious tournament was hosted at the iconic Al Habtoor Polo Club in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), from February 5-22, 2025.

In partnership with Aydinli Group, U.S. Polo Assn.’s brand partner in the Middle East, the classic, sport-inspired brand provided performance jerseys for multiple teams, branded apparel for all on-site staff, and gifts to the finalists. During the game’s fun-filled divot stomp, spectators also enjoyed a special giveaway of U.S. Polo Assn. branded caps.

The Dubai Polo Gold Cup was an unforgettable two-week tournament ending with an intense final game between two strong teams, the UAE Polo Team and Jehangiri Polo. Ultimately, the UAE Polo Team prevailed with a final score of 9-8, and their name will be etched into the Gold Cup trophy. The event offered a blend of the highest-rated polo in the UAE, along with international musical entertainment, global cuisines, and one-of-a-kind retail experiences to the thousands of spirited sports fans in attendance.

“U.S. Polo Assn. is thrilled to once again partner with the Dubai Polo Gold Cup as the Official Apparel Sponsor in this premier venue for polo in the UAE,” said J. Michael Prince, President and CEO of USPA Global, which manages the multi-billion-dollar U.S. Polo Assn. brand. “Dubai and the UAE region are key markets for our sport-inspired brand, and we are honored to participate in this iconic event by showcasing U.S. Polo Assn. to sports fans and consumers alike.”

The Dubai Polo Gold Cup was founded in 2009 by His Highness Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai, and has since become a cornerstone on the international polo calendar, comparable to major events in Argentina, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

“We are honored to represent U.S. Polo Assn. in the UAE, and the Dubai Polo Gold Cup is the perfect event to align our authentic sports brand with the prestigious sport of polo in Dubai,” said Seref Safa, Chairman of the Board of Aydinli Group, the Middle Eastern partner for U.S. Polo Assn. “Each year, this event showcases some of the finest polo teams and ponies in the world, providing a mix of sportsmanship and style for all attendees, making this a high-profile event in Dubai that’s not to be missed.”

Four HK designer labels shine at London Fashion Week

Fashion Hong Kong show paves the way for international expansion

The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) proudly led four Hong Kong fashion labels to showcase their Autumn/Winter 2025 collections at the Fashion Hong Kong Runway Show during London Fashion Week. Supported by the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in London, the runway show was held in Shoreditch, a vibrant cultural and arts hub in East London, last night (20 February). The event attracted more than 380 UK and international buyers, media and fashion enthusiasts, giving Hong Kong’s dynamic fashion industry a further boost on the global stage.

A strong line-up of local fashion designers captivated the audience at this year’s highly anticipated Hong Kong fashion showcase. The event featured the creative talents of Angus Tsui (brand name: ANGUS TSUI), Bettie Jiang (brand name: Bettie Haute Couture), Rickyy Wong (brand name: RICKYYWONG) and Nathan Moy (brand name: Z I D I). The designers’ collections celebrated the unique diversity and creativity of Hong Kong’s fashion scene with a harmonious blend of sustainability, futurism, modern urban flair and cultural richness.

The Fashion Hong Kong show received overwhelming support from the local fashion industry, with Eyal Booker, a well-known model, Jonathan Vine, a highly regarded stylist and creative consultant, emerging model Yasmin Sweegers and buyers from Selfridges among those in attendance. The importance of the event was underscored by the presence of major fashion media outlets, with Wallpaper, Dazed Korea, Marie Claire, ELLE, Forbes and Numero all sending representatives to cover the occasion. The show facilitated a successful exchange between the Hong Kong and British fashion industries and helped to enhance global awareness of Hong Kong fashion brands.

Showroom creates business opportunities for Hong Kong fashion brands
For this year’s show, Fashion Hong Kong also launched creative crossover activities aimed at promoting the city’s fashion scene from multiple perspectives. Renowned Hong Kong neon artist Jive Lau (brand name: KowloNeon) crafted custom neon light installations that captured the essence of Hong Kong’s street culture at the showcase venue, offering international audiences a glimpse of the city’s unique intangible cultural heritage. The event also collaborated with Noiseless, a Hong Kong design team that has won multiple international design awards, to design a mobile guide for the show that promoted the city’s designer brands.

To further promote Hong Kong’s vibrant fashion scene and foster international business partnerships, the HKTDC has set up a showroom at The Pop Group in Shoreditch, London, that opens today and runs until 21 March. The showroom will provide a platform for Hong Kong fashion brands to engage with fashion media, professional buyers and stylists through arranged matchmaking meetings, creating opportunities for collaboration and partnership expansion.

Fashion Hong Kong Pop-up Salon debuts in Milan this March
Fashion Hong Kong has been actively promoting Hong Kong’s diverse designer brands on the global stage since 2015 with a footprint that includes fashion hubs such as New York, London, Paris, Copenhagen, Tokyo, Seoul and Shanghai. In 2024, Fashion Hong Kong made significant strides by hosting a pop-up store in Paris and conducting promotional activities covering the markets of Japan, Thailand and Mainland China, supporting the continuing expansion of Hong Kong’s fashion industry into mainland and overseas markets.

Following the showcase at London Fashion Week, the HKTDC will debut in Milan with the “Fashion Hong Kong Pop-up Salon” this March.

“As the official brand of the USPA, U.S. Polo Assn.’s 135th Anniversary Campaign honors an important milestone for the sport of polo and unites our global licensees with a shared goal and brand message,” said J. Michael Prince, President and CEO of USPA Global, the company that manages and oversees the U.S. Polo Assn. brand. “We’re inviting consumers and sports fans worldwide to become a part of the rich legacy of the sport of polo and celebrate the history of the greatest story of sport and fashion coming together.”

135th Anniversary Logo
The custom-designed 135th Anniversary Logo encapsulates the rich history and distinctive character of the sport of polo, blending tradition with modern style. Drawing inspiration from the dynamic movements of the game, the logo incorporates the rare and powerful image of “hooked” polo mallets-an iconic defensive play that is a hallmark of the sport’s intensity and skill. This detail serves as an emblem of the strategy, precision, and history that defines the sport of polo, connecting the logo at its core.

The color palette of red, white, and blue, synonymous with the iconic U.S. Polo Assn. brand, remains central to the 135th Anniversary logo reinforcing the brand’s American roots while also symbolizing its global presence. These colors not only embody the patriotism and spirit of the United States but also serve as a universal emblem of excellence and integrity within the sport of polo. As a visual representation of 135 years of heritage, the logo will be prominently featured across all U.S. Polo Assn. activations, digital platforms, and retail stores throughout 2025, creating a cohesive and lasting message to resonate with consumers and fans alike.

135th Anniversary Limited-Edition Product
For the 135th Anniversary, U.S. Polo Assn. has launched a Limited-Edition Collection that proudly celebrates the rich polo heritage and the legacy of the sport. The collection showcases the brand’s classic red, white, and blue signature colors, enhanced with exclusive 135th Anniversary graphics, celebratory gold and silver accents, and refined design details and fabrications.

Honoring 135 Years of Excellence
First played in the U.S. in 1876, polo has been affectionately known as “The Sport of Kings.” Inspired by games in England, the sport’s popularity led to the establishment of the USPA in 1890 to create rules and regulations. Today, the USPA continues its mission of promoting polo, supporting players, and advancing equine welfare, while celebrating its heritage with a modern, global perspective.

“This 135th Anniversary of the USPA is not just about celebrating our history; it’s about building the future,” said Stewart Armstrong, Chairman of the USPA. “We’re excited to connect with our global sport and brand fans through unique experiences while showcasing the authenticity and vibrancy of the sport of polo here in Palm Beach County at the USPA National Polo Center and around the world all year long.”
