Bukta is an English sportswear brand which was founded in 1879 in Stockport, Cheshire. Originally a private manufacturer, the family business gained recognition for having produced football and rugby equipment for many teams in the United Kingdom.[2]

It was also, for much of the 20th century, a leading brand of tents and camping equipment.
