Our Story
This is a story about rediscovering a lifelong passion.
Raymond, our founder, was once an enthusiastic member of his school’s track and field team. During those early years, he encountered all kinds of running shirts, never imagining they would play a role in his future career. Yet, life has a way of coming full circle. After completing his studies and entering the workforce, Raymond began traveling to factories, customizing gifts for clients. One day, he unexpectedly came across running shirts again. That moment reignited his love for running and sparked a realization: he now had the skills and experience to create something extraordinary. From design to fabric selection, Raymond set out to craft running shirts that were better in every way. And that’s how AMADO was born.
The name AMADO is inspired by the Spanish word animado, which means active, happy, and full of energy—qualities that perfectly reflect both the company and its founder. At AMADO, there’s never a dull moment. From lively brainstorming sessions with the team to overseeing every detail in production, it’s a constant flow of creativity and hard work. As Raymond likes to say, “All my years of experience have brought me to this moment!” His passion is undeniable, and anyone who speaks with him will quickly notice his dedication to making the perfect running shirt. He’ll happily dive into the advantages and disadvantages of different fabrics, explaining every detail with enthusiasm.
Of course, Raymond’s commitment comes with a few quirks. His coworkers often tease him, saying, “You’re so long-winded!” or “You repeat yourself too much!” But they know it’s this exact attention to detail that sets AMADO apart. By truly understanding customer needs, we’re able to design running shirts that aren’t just functional—they’re loved by everyone who wears them.
