Spyder (ski apparel brand)
- Spyder (ski apparel brand)
Founded in 1978 by Tyler Willey, Spyder is a manufacturer of branded ski apparel and is the largest ski-specialty brand in the world. Spyder became an official supplier to the U.S. Ski Team in 1989. In 1994 Spyder was granted a patent on SpeedWyre, a revolutionary technology that reduced wind drag on race suits by up to 20%; SpeedWyre was eventually banned by the FIS for giving unfair advantage, effectively retiring the technology.
