DFYNE Activewear Success Story: From Debt to £66.8M Brand

On a gray February morning in Glasgow, 2021, Oscar Ryndziewicz stared at a pile of gym clothes—none seemed to fit, flatter, or last. Inspired by frustration and a pulse of ambition, he swiped through Instagram looking for brands that spoke to body confidence, sustainability, and function. None did. That kitchen-table moment would soon escalate into something far more significant—a midnight gamble that would reshape Britain’s activewear landscape forever. This is DFYNE activewear success story

Glasgow, 2021. Oscar Ryndziewicz stared at his laptop screen, the pale glow illuminating a stack of sketches—not of another sleek sports bra, but of a philosophy. The silence was broken by the hesitant click of a mouse. His wife, Eilidh, an NHS orthoptist, had just maxed out her credit card. This wasn’t for a mortgage or a medical bill; it was a wild, unwavering bet on her husband’s dream. That transaction, a tense transfer of every spare pound they had, was the first stitch in the fabric of what would become Britain’s fastest-growing company. Within four years, that gamble would fuel a meteoric rise from £1.88 million to £66.8 million in sales—a staggering 517% growth that would top The Sunday Times Hundred list.

This is not a story of luck. It’s a masterclass in defiant branding, community alchemy, and building an empire one authentic connection at a time.

The Airport Breakdown That Changed Everything

2016, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. A young entrepreneur watched in horror as the zipper on his premium suitcase gave way, scattering business documents across the crowded terminal. As he scrambled to collect his possessions, a realization struck: Why did quality luggage have to sacrifice either durability or design? This moment of frustration would birth the NOBL luggage revolution—a company that would redefine luxury travel luggage through engineering excellence and customer-centric innovation, eventually moving one unit every 3.7 seconds at its peak.

How Jesus Loves You Co. Rewrote Rules of Faith-Based Fashion

February 2019, Atlanta, Georgia — Trenton Jackson stared at the Shopify dashboard—$600 left in his bank account, a stack of unsold T-shirts, and a prayer whispered so desperately it burned his throat: “God, make this so big we couldn’t possibly credit ourselves.” He clicked “launch.” Three days later, every shirt sold out. Orders flooded in from Tokyo, Dublin, and Cape Town. A movement in faith-based fashion was born not in a boardroom, but in a 780 sq ft apartment where screen-printing fumes mingled with holy desperation.

How Purdy & Figg Built a £50M Natural Cleaning Empire

Hertfordshire, 2018 — Purdy Rubin wiped lavender essential oil from her hands as neighbors squeezed into her garage. The NHS nurse had spent night shifts worrying about the toxic chemicals her patients brought home in cleaning supplies. Beside her, horticulturalist Charlotte Figg adjusted glass bottles filled with amber liquids. “Try this on your countertops,” Charlotte urged a young mother. “It’s just lemon, vinegar, and thyme oil, no lung-burning aerosols.” The woman inhaled deeply, her skepticism melting into wonder. “It smells like… a spa?” Within months, locals were driving across town to refill bottles, trading chemical-laden brands for Purdy and Charlotte’s natural cleaning products with essential oils.

When Purdy’s sons, Jack and Charlie Rubin, witnessed strangers lining up for cleaning products, they saw more than a hobby: They saw a rebellion against an industry poisoning homes. Four years later, that garage operation would explode into £50 million in annual revenue and redefine eco-friendly cleaning products.
