Meet New City Local Who Launched Sportswear Line (VIDEO)

True Athelite right now has basketball shorts, shirts and shooting sleeves

 

Andrew Arcangel, of New City, introduced something new to sports merchandise. His business, True Athelite, launched Monday night and offers shorts, shirts and shooting sleeves for basketball, which is the company's niche market.

"After receiving a surprise inheritance from my grandmother, all signs pointed to starting my own basketball sportswear company, which I named True Athelite."
