Decathlon Belgium

Everyone should be able to play sports, regardless of any physical disability. 👨🦽 Decathlon is therefore very proud to launch our very first Adapted Sports range in Belgium, designed specifically for athletes with disabilities. From beginner to elite athletes, we offer over 30 products tailored to meet their needs, including specialized sports wheelchairs for basketball 🏀, tennis 🎾, rugby 🏈 and more, as well as adaptive clothing with innovative features. At Decathlon, we believe in making sports accessible to everyone, and this launch is a big step forward in achieving that goal. 🥅 We're thrilled to make our range available online and with a showroom at our Evere store in Belgium. Together with parasport organizations such as Cap2Sports we're committed to driving inclusion and innovation in sports for everyone! 🙌 Read more about it in this article 👇 https://lnkd.in/e7QeaAwK #Inclusion #AdaptedSports #ParaSports #DecathlonBelgium Sophie Criquelion, Marguerite Beauduin, Koen Tengrootenhuysen, Luigi Cordioli, Julie Nevejan

The clothing industry has been faced with a waste problem for decades… EU countries alone generate more than 5 million tonnes of textile waste every year! This is because it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to recycle garments when we no longer need them. There is also the issue of overstocking when demand doesn’t meet supply. US-based textile innovation studio unspun have found a solution to many of the textile production challenges, with a revolutionary manufacturing process. Their technology weaves items of clothing together in 3D, reducing the need for stitching, and making it possible to unweave and then reuse the fabric over and over again. Their streamlined micro-factories, which can be deployed in close proximity to the point of sale, are automated and require far less energy than a traditional manufacturing process. It’s for this reason that we are really proud to announce that DECATHLON PULSE is investing in unspun™ to support their expansion and deployment into the European market. We’re really excited about this partnership for three reasons: Firstly, the potential to significantly reduce the textile industry’s impact on the planet. Secondly, implanting a factory in close proximity to the place where purchases are being made will really improve the overall customer experience and time to market. Finally, the speed at which this tech produces items means that we can imagine a future where each purchase is made to order, significantly reducing overstock. I’m proud to be part of this visionary collaboration as we push for change in the garment industry and drive towards a shared ambition of carbon neutrality. #Decathlon #Unspun #DecathlonPULSE #DecathlonLinkedIn

🌟 Last week, Decathlon Belgium had the pleasure of hosting an incredible 'Back to Sport' influencer event, bringing together our 15 amazing ambassadors for an afternoon of fun, sports, and fresh experiences! 🎾 Our ambassadors got the chance to dive into the dynamic world of padel—whether it was their first time or a long-awaited return to the court, everyone had a blast reconnecting with the sport. This event was all about inspiring our community to kickstart their sport routines post-summer, and what better way to do it than by trying something new? The day wouldn't have been complete without a delicious and nutritious touch, thanks to our partners at Garden Gourmet, who treated us to a healthy cooking workshop and lunch. 🍽️ It was the perfect blend of sport and well-being! A big thank you to our partners Yapado and Oona for their invaluable support in making this event a success. Together, we're empowering people to embrace a healthy and active lifestyle! 💪 #readytoplay #DecathlonBelgium #BackToSport #Padel #HealthyLiving #Ambassadors #GardenGourmet Yapado, oona.agency, Marie Tossut, Silvia Pereira Demétrio, Faye den Doelder, Sarah Van Oostende, Julie Nevejan
