LEGEND launches BMR Inspired RED socks and leg sleeves

Over the last 18 months, LEGEND® has enjoyed a national partnership with the organization Black Men Run (BMR). Black Men Run's mission is to encourage health and wellness among African American men by promoting a culture of running/jogging to stay fit resulting in “A Healthy Brotherhood”. "We met co-founder Edward Walton at a race in Charlotte and immediately found synergies that made us want to be involved with their organization," says John Thomas, President and Founder of LEGEND® Compression Wear.

Over the course of the partnership, members of the BMR family have chosen LEGEND® as their compression socks and compression leg sleeves of choice. With chapters all over the United States and across the globe, BMR runners have been sporting their LEGEND Compression Performance Socks and Leg Sleeves in races all around the world. The organization's colors are black, white and red, so for the first 18 months of the relationship, most BMR members chose between black and white socks and sleeves, vs some of the other brighter colors LEGEND has to offer.

After careful consideration and development, LEGEND has released it's new BMR inspired RED performance socks and leg sleeves! "We love the RED socks and sleeves," comments Thomas, "Their spectacular red color is a great reminder of the amazing work that BMR is doing and we are proud to offer them to BMR runners and all athletes alike."

The company is focused on extending the life of its customers legs through innovative graduated compression technology.
