The KAOS RFI sports bras were selected by the Army's Program Executive
Office (PEO) Rapid Fielding Initiative, which was created to ensure that
soldiers are outfitted with the most advanced, technically superior apparel
and equipment available. KAOS' garments were subjected to rigorous testing to
ensure optimal performance in the most extreme conditions.
KAOS Worldwide is a minority and women-owned enterprise headquartered in
Houston. KAOS performance apparel is composed of 100 percent American-made
fabrics manufactured and assembled entirely in theUSA -- a rarity in today's
apparel industry.
"The Army's selection of our RFI sports bra is an extraordinary honor and
a tremendous responsibility that we take very seriously," said Bert Emanuel,
founder and CEO of KAOS Worldwide. "We are confident that the superior
designs we originally developed to improve professional athletes' performance
will provide the same benefits to our soldiers as they serve our country."
The KAOS RFI sports bra sets a new standard in comfort, eliminating
chafing and skin irritation. The product's straps were modified to prevent
seams from digging into the shoulders, while a band below the chest minimizes
shifting and binding.
As with other KAOS performance apparel, the RFI sports bra incorporates
advanced materials that wick sweat away from the skin and dry quickly. As a
result, the garment keeps the wearer cooler and drier when it's hot, and
warmer and drier when it's cold.
Founded in 2005 by former star NFL wide receiver Emanuel and his wife
Teri, KAOS produces a full line of high-performance apparel for both men and
women professionals in a wide variety of arenas, including commercial and
industrial markets, health care/medical, public safety, and the armed forces.
