New Brand 34 Apparel Line by Kevin Schwantz

Once a great sportsmen ends his career, there is always a business opportunity in marketing an apparel line dedicated to him or her. So is the case with former World Champion motorcycle racer Kevin Schwantz, who recently announced availability of its newly updated Brand 34 apparel line.

According to a recent statement from the ex Moto GP / 500cc Word Champ, the same Italian company responsible for Rossi’s official merchandise will also be in charge with selling the Brand 34 products as well.

Designed by none other than Aldo Drudi of Drudi Performance, the collection of illustrated screened hats, sweatshirts and T-shirts features Schwantz's signature number 34. The complete collection can be found at VR46 vendor booths as well as online at VR46.it, brand34.com and schwantzschool.com.

"To have a premiere brand such as VR46 producing and marketing BRAND 34 and Schwantz School products worldwide is an amazing opportunity," said Schwantz, who is the 1993 500cc world champion. "VR46 has a great management team that maintains the highest quality standards, just like I strived for my entire racing career and we continue to strive for at the Schwantz School."

The 45-year-old MotoGP legend recorded 25 victories and 51 podium finishes during his career, gaining popularity with his extremely aggressive riding style. He culminated his career in 1993 by winning his first and only 500cc World Championship.

Schwantz entered the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 1999, while in 2000 the FIM (International Motorcycling Federation) named him a Grand Prix "Legend".
