X-Bionic Effektor 4.0 Running Shirt Long Sleeve Men

Technologies and manufacturing processes

• Neural Response Bandage

  The neuro-response bandage exerts targeted pressure at the muscle insertion, puts the receptors into action and improves muscle work.
  Apply targeted pressure to your muscles.
  The Neural-Response-Bandage exerts targeted pressure on the muscle attachment, prepares the receptors for action and improves the work of the muscles

• Sweat Traps®

  Of the up to three million sweat glands on our skin, up to 300 per square centimetre are located within the armpit. Everyone knows what happens here during a run. Already when warming up the muscles, the sweat begins to trickle.
  Catches wetness before it becomes palpable.
  Large dimensioned sweat traps, ergonomically positioned based on laboratory tests, prevent the moisture from dripping and provide active cooling.

• Expansion Ribs®

  Knees and elbows can bend up to 160 degrees. That hardly makes a wash with, without thinning out and thus losing the heat function.
  Freedom of movement and high insulation combined.
  The flexibility of the Expansion Ribs® and the elasticity of the yarn allow frictionless freedom of movement without the risk of cooling down.

• ISO pads

  11 channels each form the ISO pads at the hips and even extend over the waistband. Large areas of the organs are thus protected from the cold. In winter, it is possible to protect the body from freezing by specifically insulating individual body parts from ambient cold. Thus the ISO pads over the hip bones and also the finer ISO pads on the buttocks keep the warmth on the body, which is necessary to guarantee the internal organ functions. At regular intervals, the ribs of the ISO pads drape over the shoulders, keeping warmth on the body and protecting against chilling. This is where a lot of heat is lost with conventional jackets, because the weight of the jacket or backpack compresses the insulation material so that it loses its effect.
  More insulation area
  ISO pads enable targeted insulation of individual body parts from a cold environment. By retaining body heat that is necessary to guarantee interior organ functions the temperature-regulating zones prevent the cooling down of the whole body.

• AirComPlex zone

  At the solar plexus, directly below the twelfth thoracic vertebra, important nerve cords of the organs meet. Information that influences the entire well-being flows past here. The Energy Accumulator® EVO protects this sensitive zone with special channels. Enclosed warm air provides optimal insulation against cold. During physical exertion, the structure processes excess sweat and ensures a good, cool feeling in the stomach
  AirComPlex zone on the upper abdomen
  The AirComPlex-Zone protects the sensitive area on the solar plexus with special channels. Warm air enclosed there insulates perfectly in the cold. The system's structure processes excess sweat from physical activity and ensures appropriate coolness in the core.

• 3D Bionic Sphere® System with ThermoSyphon® Technology

  Depending on the ambient temperature, functional clothing must ensure reliable thermoregulation even when performance is sustained. Only an enlarged evaporation area and efficient sweat management guarantee an optimal skin climate even under load. The idea is to reduce sweat, not to prevent it.
  Unique and extremely effective temperature management.
  The patented ThermoSyphon® structure adds an extra dimension to the special properties of the 3D Bionic Sphere® system: Y-shaped elements support natural thermodynamics and thus improve sweat management.

• Active-Bund®

  No clothing is more disturbing than the one that constantly slips, cuts in and hinders freedom of movement. This has to be prevented.
  Highly adaptable for perfect fit
  The highly elastic Aktiv-Bund provides a secure fit and support without constricting or impeding movement.

• Heat Transfer Zone

  The basic precondition for effective thermoregulation is optimum heat dissipation.
  Optimum Heat Dissipation
  The extremely fine mesh between the compression ridges allows heat to be optimally dissipated.

• IDEO-Waistband

  During continuous movement, slipping functional underwear can lead to annoying friction. Only outstanding material and an optimal fit guarantee a performance-enhancing sense of well-being.
  Ideally designed, ergonomically optimized.
  The ideally designed, ergonomically optimised waistband, with higher cut in the back, keeps the garment in place even during constant movements.

• Smart Compression

  For the body to maintain its performance level during sustained exercise, the cardiovascular system needs support. This task is performed by functional underwear with compression technology, which promotes venous blood return to the heart. Here, a perfect fit is just as important as intelligently positioned compression zones.
  
  Smart Compression improves blood circulation, reduces muscle vibration, optimises performance.

• Cohesion Wrap® Technology

  The dermis of the woman is more elastic and weaker than that of the man. In the subcutis there are many stretchable fat cells, which absorb more acids and waste products. Collagen fibres, which are responsible for the tear resistance of the skin, are located parallel to each other in women, but in men they are interwoven to form a kind of stable network. This is why growing fat cells on the hips, thighs, buttocks and arms can push through between the collagen fibres and form dents.
  Targeted effect for the female anatomy.
  Cohesion-Wrap-Technology® offers connective tissue support and hold. It gives female connective tissue from the exterior what it lacks: stability. Its compression and the special zonal structure ensures less lactic acid can penetrate tissues. This further supports lymphatic flow and can reduce dimpling.

• Neural Response Effect

  Sports success needs the best contacts. Especially between brain and muscle. If this is not the case, there is a risk of poor movement and slow reaction speed.
  Ignites the power high in your neurons
  X-BIONIC® Partial Compression® puts peripheral nerve cells in a constant state of "fight or flight" via a steady stimulus. They then react quickly to stimulation, causing muscle contractions and reactions to increase.
