ABOUT US
Determination leads to achievement.
From humble beginnings to the Olympics
SPARK perform - a German modest sportswear brand - brings the cutting edge of sportswear technology to the modern modest athlete.
SPARK’s garments are designed in Germany and feature patented fabric technologies, delivering modern style and functional performance to the women who demand more from their sportswear.
Our SPARK Sports Hijab ULTIMATE CSF.X2 2.0 is the only to be worn by an Olympic Medalist (Hedaya Malak, Bronze Medal, Taekwondo, EGY) and three other Olympians (Hadia Hosny & Doaa Hany, Badminton EGY; Nour Abdelsalam, Taekwondo, EGY) at the Tokyo 2021 Olympic Games. We are super proud of this achievement and wish our athletes the very best for all upcoming competitions!
How it started
How it's going
Kick-off in Egypt - Now in Europe.
Mission
SPARK perform launched in Egypt as a sportswear brand dedicated to empowering women of all backgrounds to join the sports movement. Our current Spring/ Summer 2023 range is the first to be sold in Europe - Austria, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany and the UK to be precise.
Dressing modest and being active doesn't always come easy. In the back of each modest female athlete's mind is often a worry about whether a piece of skin is showing while extending to make the final goal, or if the outfit could be regarded as revealing while sprinting to the finish line. This disruption of focus could be the make or break for an athlete.
Here at SPARK perform, we combine 3 things: style - tech - modesty. Our performance sports gear creates a new opportunity for athletic women who struggle to find workout clothing that fits their modest demands and/or religious beliefs whilst meeting the needs for high-performance.
From Olympic Champions to leisure athletes: we`ve got you covered!
No matter what your training level or prefered sport is, we’ve got your back. Whether you are training for an triathlon, irregularly attend the gym or just signed up for your first Zumba class, SPARK perform has the right modest gear for you. We aim to enable all of you gorgeous Ladies to take part in the physical activities of your choice and stay true to your faith and values at the same time!

COMFORT - SECURITY - FIT
3-pillar system
Movement is a core part of the human existence. It is essential to physical, mental and social well-being.
At SPARK perform, we create sportswear that gives you the freedom to exercise at your best whenever and wherever you want.
Therefore, SPARK`s sportswear outfits are built on 3 pillars: Comfort, a Secure Fit, and Performance. Each of SPARK`s styles is designed to keep your workout gear perfectly in place during exercise. You can focus entirely on your workout instead of worrying about slipping outfits.

Building the range
The Spring/ Summer 2023 range is designed in Germany and developed by athletes for athletes. Each item gets wear-tested by female modest athletes from around the globe to make sure it stands the test of time. The purpose of each style is to heighten your performance whilst maintaining a modest fit.
Across our range of athletic apparel and headwear, we use fabrics that fulfill the following:
// non-see-through
// FastDry Technology & 4-way Stretch
// European & American textile standards
for ultimate comfort and freedom of movement.
Our Champion x SPARK packable windbreaker uses rain and wind resistant fabric that will shield you from the elements. In case you work out in hot weather, we integrated UV30/50+ sun protection into various products (top, leggins, headwear) to protect you from harmful UV rays.
All our fabrics are tested for harmful substances and are according to European and American textile standards, which means there is zero risk of skin irritations.
