Edina Brand Launches Smarter Jumpsuit Design

KRE PRIME

Minneapolis — KRE Prime, an Edina-based adaptive brand, is putting a practical twist on one of fashion’s most versatile and often impractical, staples. KRE Prime is an adaptive brand focused on style, accessibility and innovative design. The jumpsuit includes one base pant and two interchangeable tops, allowing wearers to create multiple looks from a single set. Each piece can be worn separately or connected with a discreet zipper to form a full jumpsuit. Grady said the inspiration came from personal experience. Although she appreciated the clean, minimal look of jumpsuits, she found them difficult to wear in everyday situations. “I wanted something that felt effortless but also worked with the way people actually live,” she said. “It needed to be beautiful, but also practical.” That balance extends to accessibility. The design allows the bottom portion to be removed without taking off the top, offering a more flexible and comfortable option for people with a range of mobility needs. Made from structured stretch fabric using recycled materials, the jumpsuit is designed to hold its shape while remaining comfortable enough for all-day wear. It is intended to transition easily from work to evening. Although KRE Prime operates as a digital-first brand, its roots are local. Grady, who launched the company in part to honor her late sister, said she wanted to create clothing that feels inclusive, thoughtful, and easy to wear. The Dual-Top Convertible Jumpsuit is now available in black and red, in sizes S through XL, priced at $150. Explore the Dual-Top Convertible Jumpsuit at kreprime.com.

Are You Ready To Pine Tree ‘26!
The Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic returns August 6–9, 2026, for its 41st year — a four‑day celebration of elite tennis, great food, and a community united for a powerful cause. The tournament will once again take place at Life Time White Bear Lake in White Bear Lake, Minn., with the junior tournament held August 7–8 at Life Time Bloomington South. Hosted by the Pine Tree Apple Classic Fund, a Minnesota 501(c)(3) nonprofit, the event continues its longstanding mission of supporting targeted pediatric oncology research and rehabilitation efforts at Children’s Minnesota and more than 600 hospitals across 66 countries.&nbsp;
A Legacy of Impact Founded in 1986 by Ron and Mary Ann Peterson in honor of their daughter Julieann, the Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic began as a grassroots effort to help medical professionals at Children’s Minnesota advance critical cancer research while caring for young patients and now has raised over $8.6 million for the cause.
Tournament Highlights The 2026 Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic has its largest field in history and will showcase 200 top mixed‑doubles players from Minnesota, the Upper Midwest, and across the country. Competition spans four adult divisions — Open, Masters (35+), Grand Masters (50+) — and six junior divisions ranging from Green Ball to young adult. Many adult competitors are current or former collegiate athletes, while junior players represent the next generation of tennis talent. All players are encouraged to fundraise, with many raising thousands of dollars individually.

For every hour worked, high school programs receive $10 from an anonymous donor which is then matched by USTA Northern. Another $10 goes directly to the cause. The program has generated over $55,000 for teams and the cause.</li><li>Player fundraising leadership: In 2025, players contributed 75% of all funds raised, totaling more than $350,000, including $50,000 from junior players.</li><li>Proceeds Benefit Children’s Minnesota: Pine Tree Apple Classic Fund presented a $435,000 check to Children’s Minnesota.</li></ul>
