Makers are a leading California-based lifestyle apparel company, founded and spearheaded by Sam Kim.   Mr. Kim has an illustrious background in the apparel industry.  He was one of the founders of American Apparel, the pioneering American street wear manufacturer and distributor.

"When I learned about Garmatex's products and its solution-oriented approach to the performance apparel market, I knew I had finally located the partner I needed to bring the brand to fruition. I will work closely with Garmatex over the ensuing months to take Trail Makers to market at the start of 2015."
