ISPO Gold Award for sport underwear with crystals for better muscle regeneration

In January 2014, German label Falke received the ISPO Gold Award in the category 'ski', product-group 'Base Layer' for the full-body underwear which looks at the first sight like the suit of a diver. The top of the outfit (consisting of shirt and pants) is knitted in one piece with face mask and half-gloves. The outfit can be customised individually with scissors as the threads of the knitwear will not detach.

For temperature and moisture management, the material of the 'Skiing Underwear Air Insulation' is equipped with ventilation slots that adapt to movement and polyamide fibres with embedded crystals which convert the heat of the body into infrared rays. Falke explains: "The crystals improve the blood circulation and shorten the muscle’s regeneration period, which increases the body’s performance."
