SIX:02's unique design will be the first to offer women a broad choice of athletic brands in an environment created especially for her.  The store features dedicated fit zones and fitting lounge areas for her to find the perfect fitness pants, sports bras, tops, and athletic footwear for her body type, activity, and style.  A well-trained team will provide tips on how to coordinate the right outfits for her fitness activity, always with an eye for style.  The extensive collection will offer top name brands, including Nike, adidas, ASICS, Under Armour, New Balance, Mizuno, Brooks, and Actra, as well as emerging premium fitness brands, such as Pink Lotus, Colosseum, and Spanx.  Women will be inspired and motivated through imagery, verbiage, and music throughout her shopping experience.
