Mizuno Corporation (ミズノ株式会社, Mizuno Kabushiki-gaisha?) (TYO: 8022) is a Japanese sports equipment and sportswear company, founded in Osaka in 1906 by Rihachi Mizuno. The original Mizuno shop in Osaka was an importer of American golf and baseball equipment. However, Rihachi Mizuno became frustrated with the quality of imported products and sought local Japanese factories who could manufacture to higher specifications. The domestic-made products were labeled with the family name, giving birth to the Mizuno brand. Today, Mizuno is a global corporation which makes a wide variety of sports equipment and sportswear, including equipment used in Judo, golf, tennis, baseball, volleyball, skiing, cycling and athletics.
