Polar has earned its name as a fit-tech pioneer thanks to decades of innovation in the fitness space, producing reliable, performance-focused gear for athletes since the late ‘70s.
From heart rate monitors to multisport smartwatches, the brand has crafted impressive tools that help users optimise their training and recovery, upping the ante in recent years with releases such as its Vantage, Grit and Ignite watch series. However, with stiff competition from brands like Garmin, Apple and COROS, staying relevant in the fast-moving world of wearables is no small feat.
