Olympic Champion Ryan Lochte Now Global Ambassador For airweave Premium Bedding Toppers

NEW YORK, Dec. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, airweave, the Japanese creator of top-selling premium bedding toppers and pillows, proudly announced that Ryan Lochte, Olympic gold medal-winning swimmer, is now the global brand ambassador for airweave.  Airweave is a proud sponsor of the U.S. Olympic Committee.

Few Olympians have shined as brightly as Lochte. He is an 11-time Olympic medalist, earning five gold medals, making him one of the most successful U.S. swimmers in the history of the sport. He holds multiple world records and credits his success to a strong work ethic instilled in him by his parents.

"I train almost every day and that certainly takes a toll on me physically. When I started sleeping on airweave, I found an improvement in my recovery time. I sleep deeper and wake up feeling more refreshed and ready to push myself in the pool. I'm thrilled to be an airweave ambassador and tell the world about their revolutionary products. You spend one third of your life in bed, so why wouldn't you want to improve your sleep?"

Airweave was created by Japanese entrepreneur Motokuni Takaoka in 2007. Having taken over a struggling manufacturing operation that produced machines used to make fishing nets; he believed the resin used in the nets could be put to a different purpose. His innovative vision proved accurate. Airweave bedding toppers are uniquely breathable, helping to lower a sleeper's core body temperature; lower core temperatures correlate to deeper sleep. In addition, airweave's "high rebound" consistency allows you to roll over more easily without interrupting their slumber.

This combination – deeper, more consistent, more comfortable sleep – is particularly valuable for athletes, who endure the rigors of training while traveling regularly. Sleeping in different beds can interrupt sleep patterns. Airweave ensures a level of consistency that aids with recovery, helping athletes perform at their peak no matter where they are in the world.

"We are honored to have Ryan Lochte representing airweave. He ranks among the finest athletes of all time in his sport, and we are thankful he has come to rely on airweave to ensure the perfect night's sleep," said Motokuni Takaoka, president and CEO, airweave. "Airweave was originally a product geared to athletes, who have unusual demands when it comes to sleep – they often sleep in different places and need to ensure that they stay in peak condition. Over time, airweave grew popular with everyone, because you don't' have to be preparing for competition to appreciate the benefits of a deep, peaceful night's sleep."

Airweave was founded in Japan and is now popular in many countries around the world. The company opened a flagship store in SoHo in New York City in early 2015. Airweave is also available through Danish furniture brand BoConcept in their metro New York area stores; consumers outside of New York can purchase online at www.airweave.com.
