Whether you're training for a marathon, hitting the gym, cycling to work, or playing in your local football league, what you wear has a significant impact on your comfort and ability to perform. Over the last few decades, modern sportswear has embraced advanced technical fabrics and game-changing textile technologies, ensuring professional and amateur athletes have access to an incredible array of high-performance apparel. But this can make choosing between fabrics, or matching the right fiber to the right sport, incredibly tricky.
Great ideas often emerge through collaboration and networking. When Igor Ryabinin, Head of SPORT VERNETZT, introduced the project at a BSI event, we at Polygiene immediately knew that this was an initiative we wanted to support.
This month, we bring you several Polygiene-treated summer selections, highlighting warm-weather, fresher-for-longer products set to make a big splash this season. We have the initial findings and several headline stats from our most recent consumer report, and details of the upcoming Functional Fabric Fair New York. Finally, this month’s Polygiene Pick comes from Nick Brosnan, Polygiene’s Marketing Manager for the Americas.
