storytelling
Our History
A journey of resilience and passion
“TWENTY TWO is not just a sportswear brand, it is an adventure born from a personal struggle with my body and mind.
My name is Elia , I was born in Saint-Martin , in the Caribbean , and I grew up between sun, resilience and passion .
My childhood was not easy. I went through very dark periods, trials that broke me, then forged me.
One day, I realized I could no longer wait for things to change. I made a radical decision: to regain control of my mind . Through this ordeal, I found the strength to rebuild myself through exercise, a balanced diet, and unwavering determination."
Sport as a path to healing
“ Since I was 3 years old, sport has been my pillar. It taught me to fight, to push my limits, to believe in myself when nothing else stood. Sport allowed me to transform pain into power. Today, I see it as a true declaration of love to my body . Sport has become my remedy, my source of strength and resilience. It allowed me to break out of this difficult cycle and regain my physical and mental health. Thanks to it, I relearned to listen to my body, to take care of it, while adopting a suitable and balanced diet that gave me back energy and confidence."
The emergence of the brand
“In the West Indies, I quickly realized there was a lack of quality sportswear, adapted to local conditions and the diversity of sporting activities. Faced with this lack, and passionate about Crossfit, I decided to create TWENTY TWO : a sportswear brand that reflects my values of quality, comfort, and commitment to the environment.
As a Franco-Portuguese woman , I wanted each piece to fully embody who I am: a woman between cultures, between contrasts, between warmth and rigor. This is why all our clothes are designed in Portugal , in a workshop expert in European textiles, with high-end, durable and technical materials.
TWENTY-TWO is the meeting of European quality , Caribbean soul , and self-love through movement .
The essence of TWENTY TWO
“ TWENTY TWO isn't just a piece of clothing; it's a tool to unleash the energy you have within. Each piece has been designed to support modern athletes in their quest for performance and well-being, while respecting the environment. Because sport isn't just an activity, it's a way of life.”
A much deeper meaning
The name TWENTY-TWO was not chosen at random. Born on December 22, 2002 at 12:22 on the island of Saint-Martin , this number has always had a special meaning in my life. In numerology , 22 is a master number, a symbol of power, achievement and balance. It represents the inner strength needed to transform challenges into success. TWENTY-TWO embodies this state of mind: believing in yourself, persevering and transforming every challenge into an opportunity.
