“Evine is in the business of making our customers’ lives better by offering products that allow them to ‘Be Good to Themselves.’ For that reason, I couldn’t be more excited to add the originator of copper compression wear to the Evine product lineup,” said Bob Rosenblatt, Chief Executive Officer at Evine. “When it comes to copper compression wear, Tommie Copper is best in class. Their products have already helped over one million people get back to doing what they love, and we look forward to giving our customers that same opportunity.”
Debuting live on Evine December 16 at Midnight, 3am, 6am and 4pm ET, Tommie Copper Spokesperson Heather Thomson will showcase a variety of 24-hour “Wearable Wellness” compression products, including copper-infused socks, compression sleeves for knees and elbows, a back brace and orthotics. Comfortably designed to be worn all day, every day, Tommie Copper products provide support to joints and muscles during any activity, gentle compression to aid in muscle recovery, and rejuvenating relief from minor aches and pains. In addition, each item is engineered with an exclusive 4D multi-directional weave and patent-pending Copper Znergy® technology that prevents the growth of odor causing microbes on the fabric and provides UPF 50+ protection from the sun’s harmful rays.
“I’m a busy mom and avid outdoors sports enthusiast, and this past fall I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro. During the challenging training for the climb, my body and muscles endured incredible stress, so I wore Tommie Copper products for their support, relief and recovery benefits,” said Heather Thomson, Tommie Copper Spokesperson. “Before discovering Tommie Copper, I believed that an active life at age 46 meant living with all of the aches and pains that come along with it, but it doesn’t any longer. I am excited to share with Evine’s customers my passion for this brand and its range of compression and active wear. Because a product as good as Tommie Copper, should be shared with everyone.”
