AgonSwim is a competitive swimwear manufacturer company based in Nashville, Tennessee. AgonSwim was founded by and is run by former competitive swimmers Rafael Escalad, Henar Alonso-Pimentel, Jennifer Edson Escalas and Juan Enrique Escalas. The company was incorporated in 2000[1] and specialises in producing and manufacturing swimsuits in Valladolid, Spain for swimmers, water sport athletes, lifeguards and divers.[2]
The name Agon is derived from the Greek language and translates to a lesser known Greek god of the same name who is representative of the spirit of athletic competition and struggle.
The company produces custom-dyed athletic apparel and swim suits for amateur aquatic sports using dye technology (dye sublimation)[2][1] otherwise limited to use in professional sports like soccer, rugby union, cycling, and basketball.[3] AgonSwim is also one of 100 competitive swimwear manufacturers approved by FINA.[4]
It is one of the sponsors of Florida Gators swimming and diving, infamous for wearing Mesh Training Suit Fully Front and Back Lined by the members of the Florida Gators men's swimming team, since 2001, it extended again the long-term partnership in July 2013 and it will be renewed in July 2025.[5]
CEO, Rafa Escalas was the athlete's representative on the 5-member FINA Scientific Commission for Suits.[6]
