PRESS RELEASE
October 24, 2019
Colan Totte Co., Ltd.
Colan Totte Co., Ltd., (Headquarters: Osaka, Japan; CEO: Katsumi Komatsu), a manufacturer and distributor of the Colantotte brand of magnetic health gear, concluded a promotional contract with Yoshimoto Kogyo Co., Ltd., on October 1st, 2019, and will aid with the conditioning support of YOSHIMOTO Gaming’s e-Sports team.
e-Sports (electronic sports) enjoys recognition and popularity all over the world, and in recent years the scene has become very active in Japan as well. Because e-Sports players spend long hours in a single position facing a screen, their muscles tense up and their shoulders grow stiff. They battle extreme stress during matches as well, so they require the same conditioning support as those in ordinary sports. Colan Totte will lend e-Sports players its full support to help them maintain their performance at a higher level.
On October 15th (Tuesday), four players visited the Colan Totte headquarters. We introduced the history of the company as well as its various products and the circulation improvement mechanism behind its magnetic health gear. We also listened to the various issues the players encounter day-to-day and had them try items that could solve them.

The 180mT (1800G) permanent magnets are arranged in Colantotte’s unique Alternating North-South Polarity Orientation (ANSPO™), allowing them to operate over a surface rather than a single point and produce a larger effect. The magnets are arranged in locations where they can more easily affect circulation, and simply wearing them will emit magnetic force over a large area, promoting circulation and relieving muscle stiffness.
The uneven texture of the Switch-Tex™ material is soft to the touch and produces a stroking* sensation. It rubs against your skin as you move your body, helping to ease you into a comfortable and relaxing experience.
