Adidas launches clothing with heat management technology - in black

Adidas has launched the new Climachill apparel range, headlined by a black training t-shirt that features body heat management technology to cool wearers in hot conditions. Perfect for warm and humid climates, the adidas Climachill is designed to deliver maximum cooling benefit without compromising comfort or design.

“The body’s core temperature can increase by 3 degree Celsius when we are exercising. To maintain a stable temperature, your body needs to work a lot harder to lose excess heat. This may result in impaired physiological functions, which will ultimately affect performance,” explained Dr Maarten Hupperets, Director of Future Sport Science at adidas. “When it comes to performance, every degree matters. The Climachill apparel is the smartest and most advanced sporting product and can provide maximum cooling experience.”

Employing industry-first 3D aluminium-cooling spheres, Climachill apparel provides an instant cooling sensation upon contact. In addition to the aluminium dots, the ground-breaking SubZero flat yarn also contains titanium and is woven throughout the inside of each Climachill jersey to deliver more cooling capacity.

In Singapore, the Climachill training tee will be available at S$59, the Climachill polo retails for S$69 and Climachill tanks are priced at S$55. The Climachill product range is available at the adidas online store, adidas Sports performance stores, Sports Interlink, Sports Intersport, Sportslink outlets, Alternative Sports and Royal Sporting House retail stores.
