KAOS Worldwide is a privately held sports apparel company based in Stafford, Texas that pioneered the category of advanced apparel known as Technical Clothing Systems. KAOS was founded by former NFL star Bert Emanuel and his wife, Teri Emanuel. The company slogan is "KAOS: Feel the Komfort".

The high-tech properties of KAOS' garments are embedded in the yarns. Since they aren't additives, like most brands, they won't wear off after washing. KAOS offers a complete system of technical clothing handcrafted in men's, women's and youth sizes.

Military

In 2009, the company was awarded a $1.5 million, five-year contract to supply sports bras to the United States military. KAOS has already shipped 160,000 of the bras to the Army, and is expected to continue shipping about 20,000 pieces each month. The garments help keep Soldiers cooler in the heat, warmer in the cold and more comfortable in every environment. And because front-line personnel often cannot change clothes for days at a time, KAOS garments act as a first line of defense against the harshest elements on the planet.

Other Markets

KAOS apparel is also designed for commercial and industrial markets, health care/medical, public safety (law enforcement, firefighters), mail and package delivery, professional athletes and weekend warriors.

All KAOS apparel is composed of 100 percent "Made in the USA" materials.

Performance Built Into the Yarn

Most performance finishes are coatings or treatments added to a finished fabric, and their weakness is washing: the effect fades as the garment is cleaned. KAOS took the other route. The high-tech properties of its garments are embedded in the yarns themselves, and since they are not additives, they will not wear off after washing, so the garment performs the same way late in its life as it did when new. Around that yarn technology the company built a complete system of technical clothing, handcrafted in men's, women's and youth sizes, and all KAOS apparel is composed of 100 percent Made in the USA materials.

The system's claims are about comfort in extremes: garments help keep wearers cooler in the heat, warmer in the cold and more comfortable in every environment. That matters most where changing clothes is impossible — front-line personnel often cannot change clothes for days at a time, so their garments act as a first line of defence against harsh conditions.

The Military Contract and Other Markets

In 2009 KAOS was awarded a 1.5 million dollar, five-year contract to supply sports bras to the United States military. The company shipped 160,000 of the garments to the Army and was expected to continue shipping about 20,000 pieces each month. A military order of that size tests both the product and the production system behind it, and it placed the Stafford company inside the Army's everyday clothing supply.

The same technical clothing is designed for civilian working markets: commercial and industrial buyers, health care and medical staff, public safety workers including law enforcement and firefighters, and mail and package delivery staff — all jobs done on foot, outdoors or in uniform, where a base garment that manages heat and cold is work equipment. Professional athletes and weekend warriors complete the market list, the recreational end of the same performance need.
