Ororo Becomes the Official Heated Apparel Provider for AKC Events

Ororo and the American Kennel Club: A New Partnership in Heated Apparel

Ororo®, a leader in heated apparel, has been announced as the Official Heated Apparel Provider for the renowned American Kennel Club (AKC). This partnership comes just in time for the 25th Annual AKC National Championship, marking a significant milestone for both organizations. The event will take place at the Orange County Convention Center on December 13 and 14, 2025, and promises to be one of the largest dog shows in the United States.

Ororo is celebrated for its premium, durable heated gear that combines comfort and style without the bulk of traditional outerwear. With this new relationship, they will be offering limited-edition co-branded heated apparel specifically designed for the AKC community. These unique pieces will be available for purchase at select AKC events throughout the 2025 and 2026 seasons.

Mark H., CEO and Co-Founder of Ororo, stated, "Our partnership with AKC aligns perfectly with our mission to provide comfort to both human and canine athletes. As we celebrate Ororo's 10th anniversary, this opportunity adds to the achievements we commemorate this month. We are excited to see how our heated apparel enhances performance and comfort for participants at AKC events."

The AKC is a prominent non-profit organization that manages the largest registry of purebred and mixed breed dogs in the world while advocating for canine welfare and responsible ownership. This collaboration with Ororo is particularly promising, as Gina DiNardo, President and CEO of AKC, expressed her enthusiasm for the partnership. She emphasized that the comfort and style offered by Ororo will be invaluable for exhibitors and fans who face diverse weather conditions while training and attending events.

Additionally, Ororo has made strides in pet apparel. In 2024, they introduced the world’s first battery-powered heated dog vest, the Koldpwoof Heated Dog Vest. This innovation emphasizes their commitment to ensuring both comfort and performance for dogs, especially during colder months. By developing high-quality heated gear for pets, Ororo is proving itself as a comprehensive solution for pet owners who want to keep their furry companions snug and active.

With a strong emphasis on customer satisfaction, Ororo has earned the trust of over 1 million customers, supported by UL-certified batteries that guarantee safety. Their heated apparel line focuses on convenience, featuring lightweight designs with adjustable warmth settings to cater to various environments.

For fans and competitors attending the upcoming AKC National Championship, Ororo’s presence will also provide a fantastic opportunity to purchase limited-edition co-branded apparel, a perfect blend of style and functionality. This partnership symbolizes more than just a business endeavor; it reflects a shared commitment to enhancing the overall experience of those who love and support dogs.
