La Martina is an Argentinean sports and leisure clothing manufacturer.[1]
Development
La Martina has been designated the official supplier of the Argentina polo teams by the Argentinean Polo Association,[2] as well as the official supplier of Federation of International Polo, at all international tournaments. In addition to the various national teams, La Martina also equips the university teams from Harvard, Yale, Oxford, Cambridge[3] and the College of St. Xavier in Mumbai, as well as the English national team.[4]
In January 2009, German police seized 20 tons of clothing after receiving complaints about La Martina holograms washing off shirts purchased on eBay.[5]
