The one & only
by No.1

TRION started as a baseball glove manufacturer providing innovative and creative concepts for leading sporting goods brands.  Each creative idea is designed to enhance functionality and improve player’s performance.  Coupled with our craftsmanship skills, manufacturing technique, creativity and fair value, we aspire to become and stay as the “No. 1 Glove Maker” as evidenced by the dominance of the gloves that we make for the Major League players. We have been making gloves for all levels from the professionals to the sandlot league kids in the US and Japan.

Today, we are not only making baseball gloves but have diversified into the manufacture of lacrosse and hockey gloves in Philippines and Vietnam for the leading brand including gloves for professional players of Major League Lacrosse and National Hockey League.

As we grow with the glove OEM business and driven by the Japanese craftsmanship spirit and accumulated glove manufacturing skills, we have developed our own original brands of unique BAG line. Started with “TRION” launched in 1998, we now have “TOMOE” and “IKOT”. Each brand embodies the unique and natural characteristic of the baseball glove leather and special natural fibers handcrafted by Philippine artisan weavers.

We will pursue to innovate and develop value-added design with handcrafted quality to stay as the One & Only 1.
