Our Story From The Heart

After 4 decades of design, branding and sports at the highest levels I feel empowered to be a leading & driving force in my efforts to change the health quality of apparel as we know it. With the recent information showing that Polyester (Lulu, Nike, most all sports apparel today)

contains dyes, solvents phthalates (plasticizing chemicals) & PFC’s (polyfluorinated chemicals), now referred to as PFAs which are pretty much indestructible “forever chemicals” known to cause CANCER,

Reproductive harm, Liver damage, weakend immunity & abnormal infant development. Our skin is our largest organ and it’s my goal to

provide you with beautiful, performance apparel that only

enhances your life as you live, breath and sweat through

life and sport.
