About Us

VMG stands for velocity made good - a sailing term that speaks to performance, precision, and making every move count.

That thinking has shaped the brand from the beginning. Born in 1991 and built on a strong sailing heritage, VMG creates apparel designed for life on the water and the people who take it seriously.

Today, VMG is home to two distinct brands: VMG Crew and VMG Race.

VMG Race is built for sailors, teams, and events that need technical apparel with a sharp, professional finish - gear that works hard, looks considered, and reflects the standards of the sport.

Born from Decades on the Water

Sailing is not a trend for us - it is where the brand started, and it still shapes how we think today.

Our approach is informed by real experience on the water, which is why fit, function, durability, and comfort sit at the centre of every collection.

From high-performance race apparel to polished teamwear and event clothing, each piece is designed with purpose and made to stand up to the demands of the environment.

Carrying the Legacy Forward

VMG Race is built on heritage, but it is not stuck in it.

We continue to evolve the brand through considered design, technical development, and a clear understanding of what modern crews, sailors, and teams need from their apparel.

The result is gear that feels current, performs properly, and carries the credibility that comes from decades in the space.

Global Reach, Local Expertise

As part of the Global Velocity Group, VMG combines international reach with hands-on industry knowledge.

Our global headquarters and showroom are based in Auckland, New Zealand, with our European office in Palma de Mallorca.

With an in-house design team and vertically integrated supply chain, we maintain close control over quality, consistency, and detail from concept through to finished product.
