Partnership with Athletes
About
ASICS has been supporting athletes through fundamental research and technology cultivated since its establishment. We will continue to develop products and services that cater to athletes, enabling them to achieve their best performance while maintaining both physical and mental health.
C-Project
The C Project is a team formed to relentlessly pursue the goal of "running faster." It is named after the word "Chojo," which means "peak," inspired by the words of our founder, Kihachiro Onitsuka: "First, aim for Chojo." With the goal of maximizing athlete performance, the team develops and supports products in close collaboration with athletes, without being constrained by conventional thinking, and with a sense of speed.
Product development with athletes
With 'what benefits athletes' as the guiding principle, we sincerely listen to the voices of athletes and work together to develop products that aim for new heights.
Training camp for athletes
We support the training of top athletes and the development of next-generation athletes at the 'CHOJO Camp' in Kenya and France, and the 'Mammoth Track Club' in the United States. The feedback from athletes gathered here is incorporated into our product development.
