PIMPIT FIGHT TEAM GETTING GLOBAL ATTENTION

March 19, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
The Pimpit Empire is based in the fashion hub of Orange County, California. This company has had its roots planted in Newport Beach since their inception in 1997. With the growth of the online retail stores and copycat clothing lines, Pimpit has always been on the forefront when it comes to originality and clever marketing.
As the Mixed Martial Arts sport gained acceptance as a legitimate sport, Pimpit was quick to involve themselves with this growing untapped market. CEO, Derek Jaeger has had a deep devotion to the sport for many years and has been weaving his brand into the faces of the athletes as well as the new and old fans. Jaeger took a position at UFC 48 by sponsoring a close friend of his Kimo Leopoldo. Kimo was the final bout against the favored Ken Shamrock, but Jaeger was eager to watch one of the toughest guys in the world wear his gear as he went toe-to-toe against another of the fiercest competitors ever known. The fight only lasted a few minutes into round one, but the Pimpit brand reaped major exposure and made the first dent into the mainstream as a affiliated fight brand. “It was great to see one of my most respected athletes wearing my gear. Despite the outcome of the match, I got many more years to watch Kimo tear people up in and out of the octagon.”
As the MMA fight organizations continue to develop in California and across the globe we will see a constant flow of athletes in leagues such as Pride, King of the Cage, PFC, K1, and The World Fighting Alliance wearing Pimpit as a fight brand with strong appeal to the masses. The Pimpit Fight Team is exploding with a growing network of artists developing new designs and concepts daily. Their work can be seen and purchased on Pimpit.com. Look for the Pimpit Fight Team at he upcoming UFC event, and UFC after party in Anaheim, California in April.
