You've all heard of the Climacool technology adidas has been using for years now in their apparel and shoe lines. Now, they've taken things further with the launch of the Climachill range.
The main difference in the Climachill apparel is the aluminum dots on the back which conduct heat away from your body and provide an instant "chilling" effect. So when the dots touch your back, you get that cooling sensation. It's similar to how you'd feel if you touched a cool metal object.
adidas has also used the new SubZero flat yarn, a fabric that has titanium and helps cool you down even better.
The full press release is below:
Today, adidas launch a revolution in active cooling technology, the adidas Climachill™ range. The range incorporates an innovative fabric using titanium and 3D aluminium cooling spheres. The technology provides an instant 'chill' effect to help athletes's performance in warm conditions lowering their body temperature so they can train harder, run longer, retain their focus and compete better.
adidas understand the importance of temperature management to make athletes better and for the first time used evaporation and conduction methods together. Revolutionary aluminium cooling spheres are strategically located to correspond with the warmest area of the body, cooling skin down upon contact. In addition to the aluminium dots, the groundbreaking SubZero flat yarn contains titanium and is woven throughout the inside of each Climachill™ jersey, delivering up to 36 % more cooling capacity*.
The range was rigorously tested in the state of the art adidas 'Clima' chamber, with temperatures as high as 50°C. By using a 35-degree 'hot plate' to simulate critical functions of the human skin, adidas were able to determine a pre-selection of functional fabrics to find the ultimate Climachill™ fabric.
The Climachill™ technology goes on sale worldwide from 1 April within various categories including; Men's, Women's and Kid's Training, as well as Tennis and Outdoor wear. The key pieces in the Climachill™ product range are the Men's Training t-shirt and the Women's Tennis top.
David Beckham, Climachill™ ambassador commented on the new range: 'Playing and training in extreme conditions can be very challenging both mentally and physically. In my time as a player I have played in cold conditions in the North of England and in very hot climate in the US – weather can really make a difference to an athlete's performance. The technology used in the Climachill™ range will really help athletes concentrate on their game so they can perform at their best, even in the harshest of conditions.'
