Apparel

Our apparel is offered in a variety of styles and fits intended to reduce friction, enhance comfort and mobility, regulate body temperature and improve performance regardless of weather conditions. Our apparel products are engineered to replace cotton and other traditional non-performance fabrics in the world of athletics and fitness with performance alternatives designed and merchandised along gearlines. Our three primary apparel gearlines are marketed to tell a very simple story about our highly technical products and extend across the sporting goods, outdoor and active lifestyle markets. We market our apparel for consumers to choose HEATGEAR® when it is hot, COLDGEAR® when it is cold and ALLSEASONGEAR® between the extremes. Within each gearline our apparel comes in three fit types: compression (tight fitting), fitted (athletic cut) and loose (relaxed).

HEATGEAR® is designed to be worn in warm to hot temperatures under equipment or as a single layer. Our first compression T-shirt was the original HEATGEAR® product and remains one of our signature styles. While a sweat-soaked cotton T-shirt can weigh two to three pounds, HEATGEAR® is engineered with a microfiber blend designed to wick moisture from the body which helps the body stay cool, dry and light. We offer HEATGEAR® in a variety of tops and bottoms in a broad array of colors and styles for wear in the gym or outside in warm weather.

Because athletes sweat in cold weather as well as in the heat, COLDGEAR® is designed to wick moisture from the body while circulating body heat from hotspots to help maintain core body temperature. Our COLDGEAR® apparel provides both dryness and warmth in a single light layer that can be worn beneath a jersey, uniform, protective gear or ski-vest and our COLDGEAR® outerwear products protect the athlete (and the coach, fan and others) from the outside in. Our COLDGEAR® product offerings generally sell at higher prices than our other gearlines.

ALLSEASONGEAR® is designed to be worn in changing temperatures and uses technical fabrics to keep the wearer cool and dry in warmer temperatures while preventing a chill in cooler temperatures.
