Overview

Omorpho is an Oregon-based micro-weighted fitness company producing weighted vests and apparel. Its core product line focuses on micro-weighted vests intended to accelerate strength-training results. The company sells direct-to-consumer and through retail channels. Omorpho recently closed a $3 million funding round to grow its direct-to-consumer and retail segments. The new capital brings the company’s total investment to $16 million. The round was led by Chicago-based KB Partners and Thirty-5 Capital. OMORPHO develops Gravity Sportswear powered by MicroLoad™, a line of micro-weighted apparel that anatomically places small weights across the body to help users get fitter, faster and stronger without limiting natural movement. The company sells primarily via a direct-to-consumer distribution model and plans to continue building that channel while activating recent strategic partnerships. Recent partnerships include club distribution with Equinox, a strategic distribution partnership with Carbon38, and content and programming collaborations with high-profile fitness instructors. OMORPHO also announced athlete ambassadors and NFL signings who have been training in Gravity Sportswear. Financially, OMORPHO closed a $6 million seed round at a $26 million valuation and reports total investment in the company now stands at $13 million. The company is tied to co-founders Stefan Olander and Ben Williams and is described in its materials as founded in 2017 in Portland, OR; the co-founders launched the brand with a team in November 2021.
