R.E.P.S. is growing, and we are proud to welcome Nacho Vargas as a new R.E.P.S. Brand Representative.
Born in Bogotá, Colombia, and now based in Atlanta, Nacho brings a powerful story of rebuilding, discipline, and service to the brand. After losing his leg in 2014, he chose not to let trauma decide the rest of his life. He rebuilt his independence one choice—and one rep—at a time.
What Nacho brings to R.E.P.S.
Nacho represents what our brand stands for: Resilience, Empowerment, Progress, and Service.
His journey includes losing more than 160 pounds, completing a Tough Mudder 5K obstacle race, becoming stronger than he was before his amputation, and serving as a Special Olympics pickleball coach. Through fitness, faith, discipline, and adaptive advocacy, he shows others that a setback may change your path without ending your purpose.
“Your worst day doesn’t have to define the rest of your life. You can’t change what happened, but you can decide what happens next.”
Nacho brings authenticity, encouragement, and lived experience to the R.E.P.S. movement. He is proof that resilience is built through action, progress is measured one step at a time, and service means using what you have overcome to help the next person move forward.
The R.E.P.S. movement is growing
R.E.P.S. is more than apparel. It is a community of people who have faced adversity, kept showing up, and turned their progress into purpose. Nacho is part of the next chapter of that mission.
We will be welcoming and introducing more Brand REPresentatives soon—people whose stories, character, and service reflect the heart of R.E.P.S. Each new representative will help us reach more people, share more stories of resilience, and remind others to keep getting their reps in.
