BOSTON, Mass. – Tough Mudder, the global experiential fitness entertainment brand announces a diverse roster of partners in advance of their 2021 season kick-off this weekend in Atlanta. The partnerships unite world renowned brands with a global community of outdoor enthusiasts who pursue Tough Mudder’s unique brand of teamwork-based extreme challenges.

As the world begins to re-open, it’s awesome to see the enthusiasm from participants signing up to compete, and REIGN is committed to have their backs every step of the way”

CRAFT Sportswear has joined Tough Mudder in a multi-year global partnership as the “Official Performance Apparel and Footwear” of the series. The two brands will collaborate to create co-branded high-performance technical Tough Mudder branded footwear designed specifically for the obstacles and muddy elements participants face on the course.

Every Man Jack – returning as the Official Men’s Grooming Partner of Tough Mudder 2021- will be providing rinse stations at the finish line to help Mudders clean up. Their outdoor inspired, naturally derived grooming products for every guy, are responsibly made in the US, cruelty free and without any harmful chemicals.
