There Are Two Ways to Warm Up. Both Come In Stripes of Three
Warming up is strongly encouraged in sports: some light- to medium-intensity exercise brings the heart rate up and increases body heat, gets the joints lubricated and ready to enjoy effortless movement.
In winter especially, warming up becomes both non-negotiable and harder to do. The good thing? The right garments can help with that job, and adidas, as one of the world’s leading activewear brands, knows this better than most.
Traditional winterwear delivers impressive insulation but often comes with bulky, stiff silhouettes that restrict mobility. Sports-driven outerwear, on the other hand, may provide that cat-like nimbleness, but sacrifices style in the process.
adidas' cold-weather activewear, however, falls exactly in the middle. It keeps one's temperature steady even on snowy pistes and icy mountain trails, yet still looks right at home, on city streets.
Just in time for the holiday season, adidas has unveiled some of its warmest performance pieces, which are ideal gifts for athletes, outdoor enthusiasts, and urban style purveyors alike. Below, find some of our favorites.
