Ironman announced Sugoi Performance Apparel as the new official
performance apparel of Ironman triathlons in North America and Europe.
For the next three-years, Sugoi, a division of Dorel Industries (TSX:
DII.B, DII.A), will offer athletes intuitive designs, extensive jersey
customization and state-of-the-art materials.
"Sugoi is honored
to be named the exclusive technical performance apparel partner for
Ironman," says Kyle Weiner, Sugoi President. "The Ironman brand is
internationally recognized as the pinnacle endurance event for athletes.
It is a true testament of quality for Sugoi when elite athletes
validate the superior performance and technical features of the brand's
products. With this new affiliation, Sugoi's commitment to innovation
and consumer relationships has never been stronger."
In addition
to building the official performance race apparel that is customized for
Ironman and Ironman 70.3® events in North America and Europe, Sugoi
will also launch an exclusive line of "M-DOT" branded merchandise. The
collection will include a range of men's and women's bike and run gear,
built to withstand all-season athlete training.
Sugoi will also
outfit the elite Ironman Executive Challenge program that offers
business leaders exclusive privileges to the world's most challenging
endurance event. As part of this sponsorship, every Executive Challenge
participant will now receive Sugoi custom tri apparel.
"We are
excited to add Sugoi to our strong family of official sponsors," said
Andrew Messick, Chief Executive Officer of World Triathlon Corporation
(d/b/a Ironman). "Sugoi and its performance apparel have been of great
benefit to our athletes over the years. This relationship with Sugoi is
another important part of our ongoing efforts to enhance our athlete
offering."
Sugoi's new Ironman merchandise lines will launch at
