How was Tommie Copper started?


Tommie Copper was founded by Tom Kallish, a middle-aged and self-professed weekend warrior, who suffered a traumatic water skiing accident requiring multiple surgeries on his back, knees and hips leaving him with chronic debilitating arthritic pain. Finding only uncomfortable, restrictive and bulky compression available, he created Tommie Copper compression wear. Tommie Copper compression uses multi-directional support and proprietary fabric to provide supportive relief while being comfortable enough to be worn throughout the day.
