WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

Born in Glasgow, Red Torpedo was built on a simple idea: challenge the norm and do things properly.

Founded in 2002 by Bill Gordon, the brand started life as an underwear company with attitude — inspired by underground music culture and a desire to disrupt a stale market. From the beginning, quality, longevity, and bold design were non-negotiable, and that mindset still drives everything we do today.

As the brand grew, so did its world. What began with underwear quickly expanded into t-shirts, casualwear, and collaborations rooted in motorcycle road racing — a culture defined by speed, grit, and individuality. Working alongside legendary riders like Guy Martin and John McGuinness helped shape the identity of Red Torpedo into something bigger than clothing: a community built on shared mindset and passion.

Today, Red Torpedo continues to evolve. From our roots in motorsport to our expansion into MTB and performance wear, we design gear for those who push limits — on the road, on the trail, and beyond.
