Adidas launches 10th Porsche Design collection
German sports brand adidas has revealed its 10th Porsche Design Sport collection of engineered luxury sportswear for men. The new autumn-winter 2011 collection focuses on maximising protection, performance and style for training and adventure in a range of winter conditions.
The season’s most exciting debut is the Winter Training package, inspired by Porsche Ice Force training course in the north of Finland. The collection is designed to keep outdoor adventurists dry and comfortable. Apparel highlights include the Down Jacket, engineered with a water-repellent shell in a signature Porsche Design Sport mélange pattern insulated with premium 90% down / 10% goose feather fill, and the Extreme Pant, featuring a woven Schoeller fabric treated with 3XDRY technology with four-way stretch and a hydrophilic finish that lifts moisture away from the skin.
In footwear, the Winter Boot is engineered for maximum warmth and traction over unpredictable icy terrain. The performance boot features a water-proof Gore-Tex membrane and ultralight PrimaLoft insulation for thermal protection. The outsole is equipped with temperature-sensitive lugs that act like spikes to maximise grip in ice and snow.
