Now more than ever, supporting local businesses and American manufacturing is crucial. Keeping the money in local economies is one obvious benefit, but the environmental implications are huge as well.
Looking at something as big as the fitness industry, so many brands produce and ship from overseas, but there are a surprising number of companies making really great gear right here in the U S of A. To save you the search time, below you’ll find a selection of our favorite American-made fitness products – most of which you can add into your own workout routine right now.
Santini has launched a full custom indoor 2021 collection for men and women.
The brand has created a range of technical and eco jerseys, singlets, bib shorts and accessories for the growing indoor market.
Jon Sangan, UK custom sales manager, said: “Currently, there is a “make do” attitude to indoor kit with consumers wearing second or third best kit, often worn out, even though they are putting themselves through intensive one-two hour sessions. Indoor training is a chore, why put yourself through the wringer in uncomfortable kit? The answer is a highly breathable/quality and compact range of multi-use products.
“A combination of training at home, sales of smart trainers and a revolution in the likes Zwift Racing has meant that indoor training is now the norm and no longer confined to winter months. As well as clubs and teams and coaching centres, IBDs now have the opportunity to sell indoor custom shop kit either to promote or enhance their trainer offer.”
