X-Bionic The Trick 4.0 Running Shirt Long Sleeve Men

Technologies and manufacturing processes

• 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.

• 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.

• THE TRICK®

  The thermoscan illustrates the local heating of the spine as a result of the insulation elements of THE TRICK®. The thermo camera records the radiation from heat sources. Cool colours mean high insulation, warm colours mean high heat emission. With The Trick®, the developers at X-BIONIC® have found a new, superior way to thermoregulate. The insulation zone along the spine simulates an overheating of the body, which encourages the brain to start cooling and thus sweat production earlier. Result: More energy for your performance.
  Earlier cooling. Better performance.
  To address this issue, X-BIONIC® developed THE TRICK®. A special weave along the spinal column simulates overheating of the body. As a result, the brain triggers sweat production long before overheating can occur. Early sweating permits more effective cooling that sustains energy reserves.

• 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.

• 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.

• Stability Zone

  Poorly fitting, scrubbing and rubbing functional wear disturbs the well-being during sporting activity significantly and develops into the performance killer par excellence.
  
  The Stability Zone keeps the shirt in the right place and prevents uncomfortable riding up during dynamic torso movement.

• Expansion Flex Zone at the shoulder joint

  Resistance-free motion sequence: The flexibility of the Expansion Flex Zone and the elasticity of the yarn allow for resistance-free movement. In addition, the expansion ribs in the shoulder area optimize the movement of the arms, which have a direct influence on the running technique as pacemakers and stabilizers.
  Unique with 6-dimensional stretch material
  The Expansion Flex Zone encircling the shoulder joint optimise arm movement.

• 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.
