In 1972, there was a piece of legislation, Title IX, 37 words, that paved the way for girls and women to take to the fields and courts across America. Soon those same young women stormed from the locker rooms into the world of work, busting barriers in board rooms, operating rooms, court rooms and yes, even oval rooms. In the spring of 1989, Missy Park, noticed that no one seemed to be too interested in athletic gear specifically built for women. With that in mind, Title Nine was born in a garage in Berkeley, CA. In the beginning, Title Nine was a small group of women runners, ruggers and athletes. We didn't know a balance sheet from a balance beam, but we were a team, and together we learned the business from the bottom up. We were the very first to believe in the crazy idea that women wanted sports gear of our own. In the late 90s, we started using some of our profits to create opportunities for girls and women to participate in sports. But, to this day, Title Nine remains the largest independently owned and operated retailer in the women's fitness and adventure space. We are the only company owned and operated by a passionate and opinionated group of gals (and some very cool guys) who know a thing or two or 13 about women's sports apparel and sports bras.
