RYU’s head start in athleisure has given the company a considerable advantage as major brands battle to secure their share of the athleisure market. The company’s revenue has grown each year since 2016 ($1.36 million in 2016, $3 million in 2017, and $8 million projected in 2018) and even outsold Lululemon and Under Armour combined over their first two years ($4.5 million versus $2.4 million) of business. RYU expects to see margins increase once economies of scale are realized.

The athleisure trend is about more than just clothing, however; it’s about demanding quality and performance in every setting. RYU is more than a clothing company, it's an innovative tech company dedicated to improving the quality of urban athletic wear with every product they design. The company’s extensive list of patents is an extension of this approach, providing legal protection against competitors lagging behind.
