Translations for
sportswear and footwear
At The Action Sports Translator, we provide translations for sportswear, sports apparel and footwear brands on a daily basis. We help our outdoor and action sports clients find their best foothold in the market across all the world’s markets.
Our specialist linguists are sportswear enthusiasts and in-country, native speakers who fully understand the nuances of their language – and those of your market – so they can convey your brand message to the right people in the right way.
For you, this means compelling translations that retain your authentic brand voice. Copy that converts. A seamless user experience. Improved customer satisfaction. Increased web traffic. And product descriptions that truly sell products.
MEET YOUR BRAND’S NEW
TRANSLATION DEPARTMENT
Just like your sportswear and apparel, our copy is precision-made and carefully crafted. We’re not afraid to put in the (translation) work to inspire your customers to lace up, get out, exercise in the fresh air and make outdoor sports a real adventure.
Each team is custom built and tailored to your market(s), sport(s) and end goal(s). We can provide samples to find the best match for your voice from among our qualified linguists or vet new linguists to get that perfect fit. With the right specialists and the best tech on the market, we become an extension of your team and transform your content into a multilingual marketing machine.
WE HAVE WALKED MILES
IN YOUR SHOES (AND CLOTHES)
We know how much thought and care you put into your sportswear and apparel. Our copy is just as thorough and carefully crafted. We’re not afraid to put in the (translation) legwork to inspire your customers to lace up, get out, breathe in the fresh air and make outdoor sports a real adventure.
► Unlike other translation agencies, we’re also adventure sports fans. We already know our way around outdoor sportswear and footwear and how the right technical gear can make or break a run.
You won’t have to explain the concept of a water column, the right conditions for a 2.5-L Pertex Shield Jacket, or when a 3L Gore-Tex Pro might be better.
We also know the importance of high-rebound midsoles and molded toe caps when scrambling over rocky terrain.
► We’ll create specific content that delivers unique brand experiences to outdoor enthusiasts around the globe. Our action sports translation services combine translation expertise with in-depth technical knowledge of a range of adventures and activities, from mountaineering and skiing to outdoor and sports tech.
We use the best translation tools available to take your localization to the next level. The result? A streamlined process for delivering accurate and consistent product descriptions that boost visibility and enhance your sales.
Need to localize your outdoor or sports tech? On the hunt for new adventure lifestyle copy for the upcoming season’s product release? SEO translations for your ecommerce? No matter the specs, we’ve got you covered.
