<\/p>\nGreg Louganis Launches Athleisure Fashion Line \u2013 WATCH<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Legendary gay<\/a> Olympic diver Greg Louganis has just launched an Indiegogo campaign<\/a> to start his own line of casual activewear and to commemorate the 40th anniversary of his first Olympic winning dive.<\/p>\n Via Facebook,<\/a><\/p>\n Greg is proud to announce the launch of a new campaign on Indiegogo! Having accomplished so much throughout his illustrious career, as the greatest Olympic diver in history, a mentor, writer, humanitarian and an activist for HIV\/AIDS, this Indiegogo campaign marks the next step of Greg’s journey — funding an activewear line of clothing that empowers you to perform at your mental and physical best — all while recognizing the 40th Anniversary of Greg’s first Olympic win!<\/span><\/p>\n The campaign is seeking $100,000 to get Greg Louganis Activewear started. A lot of the costs the team will have to spend are typical start up expenses: “…the creation of logos, designs, patterns and purchasing raw materials — in hopes of attracting partners in the multi-billion dollar sports clothing business to further expand our reach”.<\/p>\n A portion of the proceeds from the campaign will also go to two charity organizations, Crossing the Line Sports Summit and the Point Foundation.<\/p>\n Perks for lucky backers include Greg Louganis memorabilia, a variety of different combo packages, and the chance to Skype with Greg.<\/p>\n Watch a pitch video<\/a> from Greg, below.
