RYU unveils limited edition Bruce Lee warrior hoodies

Respect Your Universe Inc. (RYU) is pleased to announce the release of the RYU Bruce Lee Limited Edition Warrior Hoodies. The limited addition of 250 hoodies was created in collaboration with Bruce Lee Enterprises to honor the memory of Bruce Lee.

Considered by many to be the greatest and most influential Martial Artist of all time, Bruce Lee embodies the spirit of a modern day warrior and reflects the RYU brand ethos -- redefining what is humanly possible and reflecting strength, honor, respect and sustainability in everything we do. Bruce Lee: "Always moving forward. Never satisfied."

"It is a true honor to be working with Bruce Lee Enterprises. Like many martial artists today, Bruce Lee was a huge influence and inspiration and one of the reasons I started to practice Martial Arts," said RYU Brand Ambassador, Rocky Bice. "Bruce Lee's philosophy on life is a perfect fit with the RYU pillars of respect, strength, honor and sustainability."

As a fun kick-off for Bruce Lee and RYU fans to be the first to win a limited edition Warrior Hoodie, fans are asked to "like" both the RYU and Bruce Lee facebook pages and then visit the Bruce Lee Facebook on July 23rd for more details on how to win.

The RYU Bruce Lee Warrior Hoodie was made by RYU with the determination of the Warrior in mind. Designed to keep warriors warm during training in cool, dry weather, it is also flexible, organic and versatile enough to be worn casually or in training.

On the back side of the hoodie, it bears Bruce Lee's "Loong," or "dragon" representation, with his English signature stitched above an edition number to show proof of the genuine article by RYU.
