Athlo
Athlo is an athletic apparel company based in the United States with a mission to create the most technologically advanced, fashionable, and sustainable athletic clothing for performance athletes and outdoor enthusiasts.
Athlo is unique because it’s an American brand that fully embraces being “Made in America,” meaning everything from design to manufacturing takes place at Athlos headquarters in Oakland, California.
Athlo Founder Matthew Mansell is an alumnus of the University of Virginia who was a competitive runner for the Cavaliers. Matthew Mansell and many other collegiate runners were frustrated with the current athletic apparel market, so he decided to take his experience from high fashion and apply it to the athleisure world. To push boundaries, create a product in a new way, and break from traditional business models, Mansell founded Athlos in 2013 with a vision to disrupt the athletic apparel space.
Athlos works with a family-owned mill in southern Turkey to source the best fabrics. The special fibers and unique manufacturing processes give Athlos apparel softness, stretch, and breathability. With the help of factories across the United States, Athlos are changing manufacturing one step at a time.
Athlos has various performance leggings worn by celebrities such as Bella Hadid, Kendall Jenner, and Hailey Baldwin. Matthew Mansell was recognized one of Fast Company’s Most Creative People in Business for their unique business model and partnership with the nonprofit Humanity United.
Athlos has over 5,000 happy customers and is sold in all 50 states, Canada and Europe. Athlos was featured on ABC7 KGO, NBC News, Stylecaster, The Daily Mail Online UK, The Cut, and Fashionista, among others. One thing for the next fitness unicorn is fearless in being transparent. It has a full log of customer service calls and social media posts to showcase transparency and the consumer revolution. Athlos is currently sold at Nordstrom. Athletes such as Lindsey Vonn and DeSean Jackson wear Athlos products to maintain their competitive edge.
