Before I got injured I use to run forever. After a year of rehabbing an injury from running I am ready to get back to it. I suddenly realized that I didn't fit in any of the work out clothes that I had. There I was in front of my closet saying "Great ! Now what?" I went online and started looking for something worth my money. I looked at all the major brands. I found their prices to be excessive and their clothes leaving something to be desired. My searching lead me to a dead end. All of these major retailers were more worried about their image instead of mine. I was so frustrated. That is when my friend me handed a pair of shorts received from the NXG. I was like Next Generation never heard of it. I figured it can't be any different than anything else. I was wrong. It not only felt great in the gym but I also looked good in it. I didn't feel like I was wearing spandex underwear.
When I dug deeper I found was support New Orleans through a young entrepreneur/businessman by the name of Eddie Compass IV. It was to my greater surprise and pleasure to find that he was a good friend of Chris Ivory. Yeah that's right, New Orleans Saints running back Chris Ivory. I was like wow, everything this guy touches turns to gold. Compass keeps doing it big and one of his partners is Tracy Krohn. Tracy Krohn is among one of Forbes 400. Tracy is the CEO of Krohn Racing and W & T Offshore (WTI). NXG sponsors Chris Ivory and Krohn Racing , crazy. I am sure you'll see some of their gear in the upcoming NASCAR Rolex Series. I was equally pleased to find out the other day while I was doing the wash "Made in America" on the tag. That's where it's at. Next Generation is made in America! NXG isn't made in Malaysia, Taiwan or Jordan it's 100% home grown. I instantly knew as soon as I put on my NXG shorts they were more focused on me than looking cool. NXG's main concern is delivering a superior product. They don't want to rip you off for clothes that look like pajamas and cost like Armani suits.
What lies beneath all the names and sponsors for Next Generation? NXG can be found at the intersection of fashion and function in performance wear. NXG isn't only concerned about the environment, but also the future of America's children. While the obesity of children in the US is hitting 1 out of every 3 children NXG is stepping up to do something about it. What could be better than promoting fashion and fitness with trainers across the nation for thousands of kids. If that wasn't enough they give part of their profits to Children’s Hospital to go toward Cancer and Spinal Meningitis research. What could make you feel better than that? Whether your coming out of the gym, pool or weight room you can be assured you will look as good as you feel. When you get a chance check out Next Generation and I'm positive you'll love what you see. I know personally that it's up to me to be that positive influence in and out of the gym for my kids. Right now it's up to me to make the best of today and tomorrow. It's my turn! I am the Next Generation! Are you? Come find out !
