As the last Danish athlete to compete at this year’s Olympic and Paralympic Games, Lisa won gold in the women’s 58 kg K44 taekwondo on Friday. It was a brilliant finish to a very successful seven weeks in

Japan. In all, Denmark’s Olympic and Paralympic teams won six gold, five silver and five bronze medals for a total of 16 – plenty of opportunities for the Tokyo 2020 medal suit, which was designed by BESTSELLER, to be in the spotlight.

As the official clothing partner, BESTSELLER has designed and delivered Denmark’s official collection for use in all non-competition situations at the past four Olympic and Paralympic Games. Our Olympic and Paralympic design team is already looking forward to doing it again for Paris 2024.

Why not “Tokyo 2021”?

When the International Olympic Committee (IOC) decided to postpone Tokyo 2020 due to COVID-19, it was also agreed that the event would continue to be referred to as ‘Tokyo 2020’.

One of the major reasons was to prevent waste. In step with the IOC's decision and our own sustainability ambitions, BESTSELLER has kept all ‘Tokyo 2020’ labelling on the official Danish Olympic and Paralympic collection.
“Our solidarity and our unity have never been more important, and our values oblige us to act,” states Anders Holch Povlsen, BESTSELLER's CEO and Owner.
With the first-ever harvest of certified in-conversion cotton coming from Pakistan, BESTSELLER and its brand JACK & JONES are making history together with their long-standing supplier and partner Artistic Milliners.
BESTSELLER is one of the first fashion retailers to scale a new blockchain solution and is thereby taking a remarkable step towards product traceability. Investments in traceability solutions are needed to make sure that consumers get products they can trust and simultaneously ensure compliance with expected EU requirements for digital product passports.
BESTSELLER ends the 2025/26 financial year with growth in both revenue and profit. This comes at a time when the fashion industry continues to be characterised by change, with new customer expectations, technological developments, and uncertain market conditions placing ever greater demands on businesses.
What SELECTED learned from testing Circ's recycled fibres
The brand continues its international growth journey and will open its first two stores in France at the end of October. The openings mark PIECES' first step into retail in one of its largest wholesale markets.
BESTSELLER has joined the Cotton Reloop Matrix Project - a cross-industry initiative to map and physically test where recycled cotton stands today.
