Sports events participation: marathons and swim meets lift the brand profile
Marathons:
Xiamen, Zhengkai and other Chinese cities held marathons one after another in the last quarter. This quarter, 361° partnered with the Qingdao Marathon on 21 April, which would have again raised the brand’s professional profile in running sports.
Wear rates:
not only have many 361° ambassadors and elite runners like Li Zicheng and Guan Yousheng ascended the podium wearing Flying Flame 3 and Furious Future 1.5 shoes, but the brand’s wear rate among runners who finished the race within 3 hours reached a new high. We believe that 361°’s premium products are sought after not just in China, but they are also widely recognized in the international market.
Swimwear:
361° has been an official partner in multiple international sports meets and it added the World Swimming Federation (WSF) in 24Q1, where it became official sportswear supplier to WSF events. We believe its well-thought-out and premium swimwear products would add comfort and prove the brand’s product quality and professionalism.
