The team consists of the two luge athletes Mark Hatton (32) and AJ Rosen (21), coach Tommy Zeitz, a team manager and a four man development team, with each member kitted out with TOG 24® jackets, salopettes and base layers.

Mark Hatton explains ‘You rarely get the chance to use kit that is functional, does the job and looks great at the same time, the gear is also ideal both for travel and for our training'.

The team need cold weather kit that will keep them warm in sub zero temperatures whilst they train year round and often for up to six hours a day. The TOG 24® outerwear is perfect for the team as it is constructed from GORE-TEX® fabric providing excellent breathability which means the athletes remain warm and dry whilst training.

The TOG 24® kit supplied gets the teams vote because it is completely fit for purpose being stylish, well designed and comfortable - offering excellent protection from the weather.

Mark Hatton comments further, ‘We are hoping for top 15 finishes out of a 50 strong Olympic field in 2006'. The team and their kit will be well travelled by the time the games take place in February 2006. The team trains all over the world including; Germany, USA, Canada, Japan, Italy, France, Austria, Switzerland and Latvia.

Chris Ward of TOG 24® comments ‘We are proud and delighted to help out the British Luge Team with the provision of their kit and we wish them every success for the Winter Olympics 2006'.
