Wilson Sporting Goods is one of the oldest and most iconic sporting goods manufacturers in the world, founded in 1913 in Chicago, Illinois, originally as the Ashland Manufacturing Company before being renamed after its first president, Thomas E. Wilson. Now a subsidiary of Amer Sports and headquartered in Chicago, Wilson designs and manufactures equipment for a wide range of sports including tennis, baseball, basketball, football, golf, soccer, volleyball, and badminton. The brand is perhaps most famously associated with its role as the official game ball of the NFL since 1941, producing every football used in Super Bowl history at its factory in Ada, Ohio. Wilson is also a dominant force in tennis, producing rackets used by legends like Roger Federer and Serena Williams, and in baseball, where its A2000 and A2K glove lines are among the most popular on professional diamonds. The brand's basketball heritage includes being the official game ball of the NBA and WNBA since the 2021-22 season. Wilson Advisory Staff programs have long attracted the world's top athletes across multiple sports. The company's commitment to innovation is evident in products like the Clash tennis racket with FreeFlex technology and the connected basketball that tracks shooting performance. With over a century of heritage and partnerships with the world's premier sports leagues, Wilson remains a cornerstone brand in global sports equipment.
