The Origin

Built on a field

XLR8+ Labs didn't start with a business plan. It started with a problem. The kind that shows up mid-session; mid-rep, mid-race, mid-game. The feeling of working harder than your lungs will allow.

We were training hard and competing harder when we kept running into the same wall. Not a fitness wall. A gear wall. Every strip we tried was built for someone lying still in a bed. The second we started pushing really pushing, they peeled off. The humidity, the sweat, the heat of real effort. None of it was accounted for.

We spent years watching athletes reach for products that weren't designed for them. Oversized strips built for bedtime. Bulky tape designed for recovery rooms, not race-day. The sports performance market had a gap.

So we built XLR8+. Not to reinvent breathing but to take what the science already proved and make it athlete-grade. A nasal strip engineered to hold through sweat, heat and sustained effort.

We're not professional athletes. We're two people who train seriously and refused to accept that the gear available to elite sport had no equivalent for the rest of us. We built XLR8+ Labs because the product we needed didn't exist. Now it does.

If you're going to wear it on the track, it should work on the track.

Our Mission

Breathe better. Perform harder.
Recover faster.

XLR8+ Labs makes the tools that give serious athletes, amateur and elite, a cleaner edge. Every extra rep. Every extra kilometre. Every morning you wake up less wrecked. That's the return on breathing right.

Tested on athletes. Worn by people who refuse to leave gains on the table.

Breathe Harder. Stick Longer. Perform Better.

XLR8-Grip Technology

Chemist strips are built for bed. Ours are built for battle. The XLR8-Grip bond holds through sweat, heat and every rep you have left in the tank.

Built for Full Output

From the first set to the final sprint our strips stay locked. No peeling. No adjusting. No excuses. Just uninterrupted airflow when it matters most.

Sweat-Proof. Session-Proof.

Humidity doesn't scare us. Neither does a 90-minute session in 35-degree heat. If you're still moving, XLR8+ is still working.

Train Hard. Sleep Harder.

The edge doesn't stop when the session does. Pair strips with mouth tape for the full breathing protocol. More recovery. More output tomorrow.
