Hello, I am Lisa, owner/designer behind BPassionit (Passionit, LLC),
Where style meets sport. I embarked on this journey at a pivotal moment in my life. Having raised my children, I rediscovered my passion for tennis. It all began when a couple of friends approached me with a tennis idea that piqued my interest.
During our initial meeting, I was intrigued and wondered how I could contribute. That's when my partners suggested I be the designer of a line of tennis apparel, and I was instantly all in. Since then, BPassionit has grown from the start of the introduction of our innovative hidden pocket pants and leggings to today offering clothing tailored for Tennis, Pickleball, and fitness enthusiasts.
While my two original partners have moved on, I've continued this incredible journey with the support of external sourcing since 2019. I always refer to 'our' and 'us,' as there is no me in a job this size. You will understand what I mean when you meet my remarkable team.
When you choose BPassionit, you're not just buying activewear; you're supporting a small independent retailer committed to ethical practices. Our clothing is proudly made in the USA, using environmentally friendly, performance fabrics with UV protection and moisture wicking whenever possible, creating sustainable clothing with long-term wear.
At BPassionit, we are more than just a brand; we're a community-conscious company. Our priority is putting our customers first and offering flexibility in our services. I welcome you to explore our website and discover the passion and dedication woven into every piece of our sportswear.
Thank you for being part of the BPassionit journey.
