SOLANA BEACH, Calif., March 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- HYLETE, Inc., a direct-to-community brand targeted at the lifestyle of functional fitness, has announced its offering of up to $6.25 million qualified by the SEC under Tier II of Regulation A+. This offering will be marketed to both accredited and non-accredited investors, giving a broader audience the opportunity to invest in the company. HYLETE has positioned itself to keep significantly growing year over year, while continuing to create high-end performance and lifestyle apparel, gear, and footwear for men and women.
"This Reg A+ offering gives people a chance to invest in a brand they believe in, utilize, and wear. Now our loyal community can own part of the brand they help build," said Ron Wilson, Co-Founder and CEO, "and receive additional perks that include 50% off retail value of regular priced apparel, footwear, and gear, free ground shipping, and more."
HYLETE was founded in 2012 on the core belief that innovation and quality do not have to come with a high price tag; and that empowering and helping the community to live a healthy life will define their success. HYLETE started with a goal to build a fitness brand with a direct connection to its customers. They made this a reality by creating one of the best cross-training shorts on the market, and selling it direct to consumer and bypassing traditional retail. Their vision is to be the next generation athletic brand that is community built, backed, and driven.
HYLETE is a digitally native brand with over 100,000+ customers and over 255,000+ followers on various social media platforms; designing and building men's and women's premium performance apparel, footwear, and gear. HYLETE does this with the support, input, and feedback of the "HYLETE nation" community; thousands of which are influential fitness professionals.
This offering is being administered by WealthForge Securities, LLC member of FINRA/SIPC. WealthForge also offers one of the leading private capital market platforms, and challenging the status quo in capital markets by removing barriers and reducing friction in the flow of private capital.
"Launching the offering involved developing an investor-friendly workflow that could automate investor verification and signatory document distribution. We are now one of the few broker-dealers that offer a robust technology solution that complements and enhances the work of our dedicated operations and compliance team," says Bill Robbins, CEO at WealthForge.
