X-Bionic Invent 4.0 Cycling Zip Shirt Short Sleeve Women

Technologies and manufacturing processes

• MacroSphere System

  Physiological studies have shown that the chest and back area is one of the optimal zones for swift and effective ventilation.
  Swift an effective ventilation
  The large three-dimensional MacroSphere System on chest and back provides a refreshing cooling effect. It reliably cools when you sweat and provides thermal insulation when you're cold.

• Fitting Ribs

  Over 200 bones and more than 600 muscles keep people moving. Sporting activity places the highest demands on movement sequences and functional clothing has the task of supporting its dynamics through an adaptive fit.
  
  Adaptable zones for a better fit during sport activity.

• Air Guides®

  Outerwear can lie heavily on the body and hinder the thermoregulation through functional underwear. In order to maintain the ventilation function, it is necessary to keep a distance between the functional and outer garments.
  Work like spacers and side stops along the Air-Conditioning Channels®.

• 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.

• ProPrio Padding

  Proprioreceptors belong to the group of mechanoreceptors and serve the perception of space and the orientation of one's own body during the mechanical load of movement. Targeted support of the proprioreceptors leads to a increase in performance accordingly.
  Improve neuromuscular reaction time
  ProPrio Padding actively ensures the balance and stability of your entire body.

• 3D Bionic Sphere® System

  The body sweats during activities. The natural cooling system keeps the body at an ideal 37°C by means of sweat. Traditional thermal underwear draws the cooling sweat away from the skin. This tempts the body to produce even more sweat. Valuable fluids, minerals and salts are lost without efficient cooling. This reduces performance.
  Cools when you sweat. Warms when you're cold.
  The award-winning 3D Bionic Sphere® System stops unpleasant moisture, the feeling of overheating during rigorous activity and prevents cooling during rest and recovery phases.

• Kidney ribs

  The kidney and pelvic region reacts with great sensitivity to cold and wetness. Cooling of the kidneys causes pain and disturbs important organ functions. Especially during physical activity, it is therefore important to protect this area through effective temperature management.
  
  Kidney ribs are made of an enhanced material for insulation in the particularly temperature-sensitive kidney and pelvis area.

• Back pockets

  Pockets can be irritating and difficult to access while doing sports.
  Maximum Accessibility without Restricting the Cyclist's Freedom of Movement
  Rear pockets are positioned to provide maximum accessibility without restricting the cyclist's freedom of movement. Also constructed with elastisized tops so gear isn‘t jolted out over rough terrain.

• Venus XT Rib

  The basis for the design of outstanding functional clothing is scientific knowledge and physical calculations. The real art is to put them into practice.
  
  Vertical ventilation channel for an increased air exchange and thus sweat management.

• 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.

• Dolphin Rider Neck

  When cycling, the demands on functional clothing are particularly high. Intelligent temperature management and maximum ergonomic adaptability are among the features that ensure smooth and performance-enhancing interaction with all sports equipment.
  
  Ergonomically optimized and streamlined collar, based on typical position during cycling, to avoid helmet-collar-collisions.

• Flexor Arm Cuff

  Functional clothing with a poor fit that slips with every movement disturbs well-being and reduces performance. For maximum comfort, the material and cut must adapt to the physiological motion sequence.
  The optimal fit supports the motion sequence
  Assymetrical arm cuff to avoid unpleasant sleeve movement.

• 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.

• 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.
