Scorpion Sports, Inc. has brought veteran motorcycle apparel developer Edward Wilkinson on board as director of development.

  

John Kim, vice president of business operations, stated, "We are incredibly fortunate to bring Edward on board to oversee and expand our development team. Not only is he an avid motorcyclist, he is also a materials and production expert. He was the innovator behind Klim’s successful dual sport line and we are excited to bring his broad range of skills, experience and enthusiasm to the Scorpion family. Scorpion’s vision is to offer high end, technically advanced motorcycle apparel at a reasonable price, and adding Edward to an already experienced and seasoned development team will help solidify our position to do just that."

 

"After looking at several brand opportunities I felt that Scorpion has the most potential as well as the unique resources to enable them to bring advanced technologies to market in a way that no other company can," said Wilkinson. "I am excited and honored to be a part of such a dynamic and dedicated team, and I am looking forward to bringing consumers a whole new range of ground-breaking and technologically advanced riding gear."
