Technologies and manufacturing processes

• Innerlap AirConditioning Zone®

  The inner thighs are less cold-active in terms of muscle performance.
  Efficient cooling no matter what the conditions
  Air permeability is increased in this area through the Innerlap AirConditioning Zone®, the insulation layer is reduced, so air conditioning is strengthened by air exchange.

• 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.

• InsulationPads

  The InsulationPads keep the thigh muscles warm. Severely hypothermic muscles can feel numb. But it becomes dangerous when the muscle reaction time slows down due to the cooling. Then not only muscle injuries threaten, but also the risk of accidents increases dangerously.
  Maintain your muscle power - always
  The X-BIONIC® InsulationPads assist in the retention of heat in the thighs and thus reduce the risk of injury.

• Air-Conditioning Channel®

  Traditional thermal underwear does one thing systematically: Keeps the self-produced heat longer on the body. This can be very pleasant, but from a certain activity level this can quickly lead to overheating of the body.
  Fresh air circulation for more performance.
  The permanent air movement along the Air-Conditioning Channel® effectively draws out and removes moisture from the sweat zones.

• ExpansionKnee

  A knee can bend up to 160 degrees. Hardly any pants can do that without thinning out and losing their thermal function. The accordion principle of the Expansion Ribs® gains insulating properties with the bending of the knee, instead of losing them. Highly flexible, a chamber and channel system unfolds with the movement, in whose interior warm air is stored for insulation.
  The ExpansionKnee protects the knee from the cold even in a bent position.
  The accordion-like construction of the ExpansionRibs® retains its insulating properties rather than losing them when the knee is bent.

• AirConditioningSpot

  Since the back of the knees sweat quickly and heavily, a fine, round mesh fabric is incorporated there. With the help of body heat, excess sweat is pressed outwards, where it evaporates without the risk of cooling down.
  Cools the knee without the risk of cooling.
  The AirConditioningSpot cools without chilling.

• Partial compression®

  Compression sportswear improves the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, reduces muscle vibrations and helps to speed up recovery. Large-area, mechanical pressure can negatively influence the blood circulation in the tissue. If no sweat remains on the skin, the blood cannot be cooled. This leads to a reduction in the functioning of the body's own cooling system.
  A new benchmark in compression technology.
  Partial Compression® applies targeted pressure on 1 mm-wide ridges. Left and right of the ridge is a compression-free area where compression could have a negative effect on blood circulation to the skin. In this way the blood flow through the veins and capillaries remains unimpended.
