ex-SKINS Chairman

SKINS A BRAND BORN OUT OF AMBITION In 1996 a keen Aussie skier had a bold ambition to develop a garment that would improve sports performance and aid recovery. Consulting with NASA scientists and other experts, it took five years of design, testing and finessing before the first pair of SKINS tights were launched in Australia in 2002. Word spread fast that SKINS help you perform better and recover faster. Basically, they make you feel like a super hero and look a bit like one too. Pro athletes were the first to get into them and before long amateur athletes joined the party. The company has grown rapidly over the last decade, and continues to lead the innovation of the sports performance category it created, but our attitude has not changed a bit. SKINS mission is simple: to radically improve the world of sport, one pair of tights at a time. Lets face it, when youve got a product thats scientifically proven by numerous independent studies, you just say it how it is. No hype required. Nowadays, SKINS global headquarters sit in Switzerland but our Aussie roots remain with a regional office in Sydney. Global growth has also seen regional offices open in the UK, USA, France, and Germany and we have a distributor network that spans every major region around the globe.
