Pressio’s unwavering commitment to sustainability, coupled with its relentless pursuit of innovation, results in sportswear that not only surpasses the most stringent performance benchmarks, but also safeguards the planet for generations to come. Pressio will support the multisport community as USA Triathlon’s official online merchandiser, offering a wide range of casual, running, and cycling apparel on USA Triathlon’s merchandise store, the USAT Store, which launches the week of January 27.
“Pressio is taking our USA Triathlon brand and apparel to the next level through the new USAT Store,” said Ben Pickel, Senior Director of Foundation Operations and Partnerships at USA Triathlon. “Pressio’s devotion to sustainable performance through functional athletic apparel is second to none.

“We are proud to partner with USA Triathlon and bring to life our aligned values when it comes to pushing the boundaries of athletic performance and sustainable excellence,” said Todd Schoelen, Managing Director for Pressio USA. “Athletes are seeking more transparency from apparel brands when it comes to sustainability and are looking at the entire production process and a garment’s end-of-life impact on the planet. Every garment we are providing USA Triathlon has been crafted with the most sustainable materials and technologies available, while supporting elite-level athletic performance.”
Pressio was founded in 2021 by Jaime Hunt, a founder of 2XU. The brand was created from its onset to preserve the earth for future generations by being the most sustainable sportswear company in existence.

Driven by the Hunt’s vision, Pressio prioritizes responsible practices and ethical sourcing, ensuring every product embodies their commitment to a greener future, including garment biodegradability.
