    Rudis, The Clash partner to promote exclusive, event-driven product line

    COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Rudis, a premier athletic apparel brand that is uniquely marketed to the national wrestling community, has partnered with The Clash to promote an exclusive event driven product line. The line, which will be unveiled at The Clash XIV, will feature a new logo and look to promote the single greatest high school dual meet event in the United States.

    Since 2003, The Clash has been the battlefield for some of the most storied dual meets that high school wrestling has seen in the past decade. Many of America's most storied programs have made the trip to Rochester, including but not limited to St. Paris Graham, St. Edward, Apple Valley, Clovis CA, Oak Park River Forest, Montini Catholic, STMA, Brandon FL, and many more. Th¬is year's event is no different, as many teams in the top 20 return to Rochester for another great event on January 1-2, 2016.

    Rudis co-founder and President Jesse Leng comments on the partnership; "As a clothing brand founded by wrestlers, it has always been our goal to align Rudis with the greatest athletes and events the sport of wrestling has to offer. Partnering with The Clash is a tremendous source of pride for our brand. There is no better illustration of adopting wrestling as a Way of Life than thirty-two of the best high school teams converging on one location to do battle in the dead of winter. This is what wrestling is all about."

    The Clash executive director Lance Hughes discusses the alignment with Rudis. "The first time I saw the Rudis logo it stood out everywhere in the gym and I knew I had to learn more about the brand. The Clash is committed to putting on a great wrestling event that moves our sport forward and part of moving our sport forward means selling apparel that represents and supports wrestling rather than selling products of brands that spend their marketing dollars on other sports." The product line, which features over 10 licensed clothing items and accessories, is co-branded with the upstart Rudis brand and the newly designed and distinguishable Clash logo.

    Rudis and The Clash designed the product line to streamline awareness around the event and offer a consistent look for one of our country's greatest high school sporting events. The product line will be exclusively available at the event and for sale on www.clashmn.com.
