Rhone is a premium men’s lifestyle brand offering activewear, outerwear, underwear and commuter wear with performance in mind. Its focus is on using best-in-class materials, developing products in a responsible way and delivering an unmatched experience through science.

He couldn’t find a men’s activewear brand that hit on those three factors, and set out to create Rhone.
