KOO Eyewear, today announced their official partnership with the professional German cycling team, BORA – hansgrohe
The brands were joined together by their shared mission of further amplifying the perspective of brotherhood across the cycling community and to celebrate KOO’s return to the UCI World Tour where they celebrated their first ride together at the Tour Down Under in January.
“To partner with such a high-performing professional cycling team felt like an obvious decision,” shared KOO’s Marketing Manager, Simona Tironi. “Performance is one of KOO’s brand pillars and to see it translate into being alongside professionals of this level, who enable us to constantly exchange feedback on the sunglasses, is invaluable for the development of new products and for bringing excellent gear to the market.”
Given that KOO Eyewear and BORA – hansgrohe both thrive within the competitive cycling industry, the partnership between the brand and the team will include the launch of three signature-edition cycling sunglasses including the ALIBI, SPECTRO, and DEMOS frames by KOO, designed in colors inspired by the BORA – hansgrohe team. These collaborative sunglasses are suitable for both amateur and professional cyclists alike.
“KOO is providing us with an innovative eyewear collection. Eyewear plays a key role when it comes to performance because it ensures good visibility in crucial race situations as well as it protects the rider,” said Gerd Kodanik, Head of Technical Performance at BORA – hansgrohe. “KOO’s products are high-tech and high-quality. They are fitted with a wide selection of premium Zeiss lenses, which gives us the perfect choice in diverse race and weather conditions.”
