Stay warm and moving even in winter

How do you avoid cooling down without overheating? What materials work best? And how do you combine functionality with comfort? Discover below our tips for sportswear that will keep you warm during the winter season.

1. Work with layers - the secret of smart athletes

Layers are the key to a comfortable body temperature. Wearing several thin layers creates an insulating buffer of air that traps heat and protects you from the cold. Plus, you can easily take off a layer when you get warm - or put it back on when you cool down.
‍

Our advice for an ideal 3-layer system:

• Base layer - Choose thermal clothing that wicks away moisture quickly and keeps your skin dry. This will prevent you from cooling down.
• Intermediate layer - Consider a breathable fleece, sweater or vest. This layer retains warmth without restricting your movement.
• Outer layer - Protect yourself from wind, rain and snow with a lightweight, water-repellent and ventilating jacket. This will keep you warm and dry.

‍2. Protect your head - don't lose unnecessary heat

Did you know that much of your body heat disappears through your head? So a good hat or sports cap is not an unnecessary luxury.

Our Kadiri Cap is designed for athletes who stay active even in the cold. Made of lightweight polyester ripstop with a soft terry cloth inner rim for moisture absorption. The breathable fabric provides cooling when needed and is easily adjustable thanks to the Velcro closure at the back. Practical and comfortable - just the way you like it.

3. Choose the right fabrics.

Avoid cotton clothing - it retains moisture. Instead, choose functional materials that breathe and wick away perspiration quickly.

Our favorite materials:

• Polyester & nylon - Synthetic, lightweight and quick drying.
• Merino wool - Retains warmth even when damp and feels soft on the skin.

4. Thermal clothing - lightweight warmth

Thermal sportswear is specially designed for low temperatures. It keeps warmth close to your body while wicking away sweat. Its light weight and comfortable fit keep you moving freely - without compromising your warmth.

5. Windbreaker - protection from the elements

Wind may be your biggest opponent in winter. With a good wind jacket, you can easily beat that chill off you.

Our softshell jackets are windproof and water-resistant, with a soft fleece inner lining that provides extra warmth. The slightly stretchy fabric fits nicely and gives you optimal freedom of movement. Style and function in perfect balance.
