ANNAPOLIS, Md., September 26, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Made Plus, a pioneering footwear brand founded by industry veterans Trey Hentz, Kevin Fisher, and Alan Guyan, officially sets sail today. Headquartered in Annapolis, Maryland, at 190 Admiral Cochrane Dr. STE 170, Made Plus marks a new era of personalized “planet-positive” footwear proudly made in the United States. With Made Plus, every step matters, which is why the brand has reduced a complex manufacturing process from 300 steps to less than 50 – significantly eliminating negative outputs on the environment.
Having collectively contributed their designs to industry-disrupting products for athletic footwear giants such as Under Armour, Nike, and Sketchers, the trio of Guyan, Fisher, and Hentz now embark on an extraordinary journey to redefine the traditionally tedious, outdated, and wasteful shoe manufacturing process. What started in a garage in Annapolis is now a micro-factory where the team passionately advocates for a sustainable future and a reimagined approach to crafting “made-to-order” footwear.
Local production and a relentless focus on an environmentally conscious lifestyle fall at the heart of Made Plus’ identity, positioning the brand as a trailblazer in the footwear landscape. “Our core mission revolves around reducing our carbon footprint, minimizing waste, and championing ethically viable practices. Every step matters, from sourcing components to the production process to the elevated performance our customers experience,” said Alan Guyan, Founder and CEO of Made Plus. “We are also focused on maintaining a local-first approach, crafting products for locals by locals, fostering a strong sense of community and connection right here in Annapolis.”
Unlike conventional shoe manufacturing, Made Plus employs a revolutionary made-to-order business model, significantly reducing waste while providing a design-thinking customization experience. By leveraging cutting-edge technologies, including 3D printing, knitting, and digital modeling, Made Plus offers personalized footwear tailored to each individual’s needs – a shoe made just for you.
Guyan expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “We are thrilled to have the freedom to focus on our mission while doing what we love best – designing and innovating in a way that raises the bar for the footwear industry while delivering customized, elevated experiences for our customers.”
The debut offering from Made Plus is the “SKIFF” lifestyle shoe, a loving tribute to Annapolis’ rich boating history, specifically inspired by the small boat that shares its name. Showcasing ethically engineered performance UPKNT technology, each pair is upcycled from six plastic water bottles, free of excess foams and linings, and incorporates Azo-free dyes and upcycled components such as laces, webbing, and support structures. “The ‘SKIFF’ encapsulates our dedication to crafting contemporary, high-quality footwear from recycled materials, embodying our vision of forward-thinking fashion made with purpose,” added Guyan.

Vibrant Wellness Unveils Groundbreaking Toxin Genetics Test for Personalized Detox Protocols
Vibrant Wellness introduces the Toxin Genetics Test, a cutting-edge addition to its suite of advanced functional lab tests. This revolutionary tool assesses genetic biomarkers pivotal to the body’s detox process, aiding healthcare professionals in designing individualized detoxification plans.

Vibrant Wellness, a pioneer in advanced functional lab testing, today announced the launch of its groundbreaking new product: the Vibrant Wellness Toxin Genetics Test. This innovative lab test is the latest addition to Vibrant’s comprehensive menu of tests designed to identify potential health risks and guide personalized healthcare solutions.
“With the Toxin Genetics Lab test, we’ve made a significant stride in the field of personalized medicine,” said lab director Dr. Mervyn Sahud. “This new tool offers a unique chance for healthcare professionals to not only assess toxic burden but also design effective detoxification protocols based on each individual’s unique genetic makeup.”
This revolutionary test works by assessing specific genetic biomarkers related to the body’s metabolic detoxification process. Certain genes play a crucial role in detoxifying the body, and abnormalities in these genes may lead to an impaired detoxification process. This impairment has been linked to various health conditions, including cancer, autism, Parkinson’s disease, fibromyalgia, and immune dysfunction syndrome.
The Toxin Genetics Test is not the only tool Vibrant offers related to toxicity. The company’s portfolio of advanced functional lab tests also includes assessments for environmental toxins, heavy metals, mycotoxins, PFAS chemicals, and more.
Vibrant Wellness testing is the gold standard of accuracy in the functional lab testing industry, utilizing proprietary 3Dense microarray technology and mass spectrometry for higher sensitivity, specificity, and scalability.
“With the launch of the Toxins Genetics Lab Test, we further affirm our commitment to enable healthcare providers to discover the root of patient health issues,” Dr. Sahud continued. “Through our precision lab tests, we aim to give everyone the opportunity to enjoy vibrant health and longevity, based on testing — not guessing.”
About Vibrant Wellness: Vibrant Wellness is a leading biotech company based in Santa Clara, California. As a CAP-accredited and CLIA-certified organization, Vibrant delivers life-transforming lab testing that empowers health and wellness providers to identify the root causes of patient health issues. Leading the charge in modern medicine and research, Vibrant provides personalized health analytics using cutting-edge, high-quality technology.
