Let’s look at some great products from Rogue for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Aside from Christmas approaching soon, October also signifies Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a yearly crusade to raise awareness of the disease. We’ll be seeing plenty of pink colors everywhere on everything — from clothes to barbells.
Parts of the profits from the sale of these products will go to the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research at Ohio State’s Comprehensive Cancer Center – James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute.
Here are some of the styles we are going to look at:
Breast Cancer Awareness Month – Overview
At the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC – James), world-renowned specialists relentlessly seek a vision of a cancer-free world. The Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research is critical to that vision. The fund, through philanthropic support, is changing the way breast cancer is prevented, identified, and treated by promoting research, drug advancement, and innovative therapies.
In commemoration of Breast Cancer Awareness month, Rogue has launched limited-edition Pink products. Parts of the profits from the sale of each Rogue BCA Shirt will go to the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research at Ohio State’s Comprehensive Cancer Center – James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute. Take a look at some of these pink products that you can include in your workout.
Rogue Breast Cancer Awareness T-Shirt
The Rogue Breast Cancer Awareness T-Shirt is a unisex crewneck made from 100% cotton in a pink tie-dye design with a BCA ribbon graphic and the Rogue logo on the left sleeve. It provides excellent comfort and durability and is available in a wide range of sizes.
The shirt has a comfortable, breathable fit, great pattern, and vibrant colors that get attention whether you are at the gym or out running. It is durable and can survive several washes without shrinking or fading.
The Bella Bar 2.0 – Cerakote Special Pink Edition
Rogue has introduced this limited edition Pink Cerakote version of the Women’s Bella Bar to commemorate Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Pink Special Edition adds an extra level of strength and style to the industry’s finest American-made, multi-purpose women’s barbell. It uses Cerakote, a solid finish used extensively in the gun industry for its durability in thin applications.
This specific design highlights a pink cerakote shaft, black cerakote sleeves, and a black Rogue logo on the center of the bar shaft. The bar is made in the USA using a 190,000 PSI tensile strength shaft, a hybrid knurling pattern for a rigid but non-abrasive grip, and quality bronze bushings for a perfect balance of rigor and natural whip.
The Ohio Bar – Cerakote Special Pink Edition
The Ohio Bar – Cerakote Special Pink Edition is fully machined and assembled in Columbus, Ohio. It continues to indicate the highest level of precision engineering, with a 190,000 PSI tensile strength shaft, dual knurl marks, quality composite bushings, and a lifetime warranty against bending. This version of the Ohio Bar is distinguished for its use of Cerakote, an advanced ceramic-based coating initially established in the gun industry for its durability in thin applications.
This unique finish delivers excellent abrasion/wear/corrosion resistance over time — 100X better than standard black zinc. The knurling has been meticulously perfected over the years for a rigid but non-abrasive grip (there is no center knurl). The bar is assembled with special composite bushings — a self-lubricating material often seen in hi-tech aerospace equipment and military vehicles. For severe and high-rep training, these bushings efficaciously reduce friction to present a solid spin.
Rogue USA Nylon Lifting Belt
The Rogue USA Nylon Lifting Belt is co-developed with Rogue athlete Mat Fraser, who has personally used it during his run to five straight CrossFit Games titles. This latest design incorporates a blacked-out buckle and roller for more fluid adjustments, a 0.25” thick foam frame (with the ripstop exterior), and a 3”x2” section of hook & loop for fastening a Rogue patch or your own custom patches.
The end of the strap was also updated with an easy-to-find, folded-over portion, enabling you to release or remove the belt as required mid-workout quickly. The pink belt has a black foam frame with pink 3″ webbing with a black laser-cut Rogue logo. The belt offers significant support for the lower back and abdominal muscles and helps prevent serious injuries and inflamed muscle strains, and pain over time.
