From passion project to portfolio powerhouse
THE PROBLEM Cyclists and endurance athletes often struggle to find undergarments that balance comfort, durability, and performance. Most available products are: - Ill-fitting, uncomfortable, or made from unsuitable materials - Generic, mass-produced designs not tailored for athlete-specific needs - Oversaturated with speculative features that lack real testing - Prone to causing wasted spending and poor athletic performance The absence of athlete-led innovation created a market gap for fit-for-purpose undergarments that could deliver both technical effectiveness and daily comfort.
