“We’re thrilled to announce this agreement with OGIO, which represents our first-ever partnership with a bag-and-luggage-specific manufacturer,” said Chuck Menke, USA Triathlon Chief Marketing Officer. “Their commitment to endurance sports has been evident over the last several years and we’re proud to align our brand with their premium lines, including the OGIO 9.0 triathlon transition bag.”
Through the agreement OGIO will outfit the US National Team Programs with product. OGIO will also provide products for use at National Championships to award winners.
