Cycle brands choose Schoeller’s coldblack

02/09/2013
Cycle and baselayer brand Odlo has developed a new range of bike shorts using Schoeller’s coldblack technology, which reduces light absorption to keep fabrics cool.

According to Schoeller, fluid loss of 2% of body weight due to perspiration reduces performance capacity by up to 20% and stamina and concentration can falter, whereas those who perspire less feel better and remain fit for longer.

Next year, Hawaiian brand Zoot will be integrating the technology into all one-piece and two-piece racesuits of its Ultra line.
