Products

To further optimize its product mix and increase profitability, the group has adopted a "non-seasonal product" development strategy. Currently, the non-down clothing products of the Group include Bosideng MAN, BOSIDENG RICCI lady's wears casual wear and D.D. Cat kids wear, VETALLO high-class menswear, and the franchise project of ROCAWEAR in the Greater China region.

Beyond China

In 2017, the brand began to think global, starting to show their designs at international fashion weeks, including New York, Milan and London.[1] In 2024, the company invested in Canadian outdoor brand Moose Knuckles, buying a 30% stake in the company.[2][3][4] In July of that year, the company showed their "Fusion" collection in Paris.[5]

In May 2025, the company gained attention when Bloomberg erroneously reported the company's market cap to be worth more than $6,000 trillion USD, valuing it as the world's most valuable company.[6]
