The American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists (AATCC) was founded by Dr. Louis Olney of the Lowell Textile School in 1921. AATCC is the world`s leading not-for-profit professional association for the textile design, materials, processing, and testing industries. Our members are employees of textile, apparel, and home goods manufacturers; dye and chemical manufacturers; testing laboratories; consumer and retail organizations; state and federal government agencies; and colleges and universities. AATCC has thousands of individual and corporate members in more than 60 countries world wide. The Association is internationally recognized for its standard methods of testing dyed and chemically treated fibers and fabrics to measure and evaluate such performance characteristics as colorfastness to light and washing, smoothness appearance, soil release, shrinkage, water resistance, and the many other conditions to which textiles may be subjected. New and updated test methods are published annually in the AATCC Technical Manual. The many aspects of textile wet processing, design, and testing are also covered in handbooks, textbooks, and proceedings of AATCC`s workshops, symposia, International Conference & Exhibition (IC&E), monthly magazine, AATCC Review, and monthly electronic newsletter, AATCC News. AATCC test method training is currently available in the United States, as well as in several key textile and marketing areas of China, India, and Turkey, and the Association is working to provide training in other countries.

From the moment we lace up our shoes, to the way we feel when we hit our stride and experience the runner’s high: running inspires us. For good. Saucony was founded way back in 1898, just two years after the first modern day Olympics and one year after the first Boston Marathon. Ever since, we’ve been loyal to the sport, building goodness into every product and inviting millions around the world to run with us. Along the way, we discovered running is a means to an end. We run for fitness and mental health. For ice cream and beer. For ourselves and for our communities. Running brings out the best in us, and bridges the gap between the people we are and the people we want to be. So whether it’s to find our inner strength, discover our world, or be part of something bigger than ourselves, we run for the goodness of running. And that’s been at the heart of our brand every step of our journey. Saucony is a division of Wolverine Worldwide, the world’s leading maker of casual, work, outdoor, athletic and children’s footwear. Wolverine Worldwide is one of the largest non-athletic footwear companies in the world, with a unique portfolio of 12 brands.
