Technologies Selects Daiyu as Footwear Distributor for Japan

Outlast Technologies, Inc., the developer and marketer of Outlast Temperature Regulation fabrics and foams, has reached an agreement with Daiyu Corporation to be the sole footwear distributor in Japan.

"Daiyu's strong distribution in the Japanese market, and its technical strengths with functional materials, make it an ideal partner for Outlast Technologies in Japan," said Jonathan Erb, Outlast President and CEO.

Daiyu will import Outlast fabrics and foams from Outlast Technologies' North American and European manufacturing supply points.

Pacific Resources, named last year as Outlast's exclusive agent for Japan, is managing sales of Outlast products to Daiyu. Experienced in managing textile technologies in the Japanese market, Pacific Resources has offices in Tokyo and California.

Outlast Technologies, Inc., licenses more than 150 companies and brands for outdoorwear, extremewear, footwear, home products and industrialwear in North America and Europe.
