DRI F.I.T.
Moisture Management
Keeps you cool or warm, but always dry.
If you work
out, you're going to sweat. But are you still going to stay
comfortable?
Removes Sweat
Dri-F.I.T. microfiber works
to keep you comfortable - transporting perspiration from
your skin to the outside for rapid evaporation. Work out.
Sweat. Stay comfortable. Dri-F.I.T. fabric wicks moisture
away from your skin to keep you dry, especially where light
weight is important. As moisture is produced by the body, it
moves quickly through the first (hydrophobic or
water-hating) layer of the Dri-F.I.T. garment. This layer
neither absorbs nor slows down the moisture; instead, it
acts as a pump or syphon, delivering the moisture to a
second (hydrophylic or water-loving) layer, which disperses
the moisture across the outer surface for rapid evaporation.
Dri-F.I.T. fabric - lightweight, breathable comfort.
Case Study -
A weekend warrior charges
into your sports store and interrogates you as to why she
should buy a Dri-F.I.T. top instead of a regular cotton
polo. You calmly reply that she will sweat in both tops when
she works out. In fact, swea t is good, you say. But, too
much and you'll overheat or get chilled. Dri-F.I.T. keeps
you comfortable.
CLIMA F.I.T. Protection from the Elements
Provides breathable protection against the elements.
Maybe
moisture can't get in from the outside, but can it get out
from the inside?
Water-Resistant
Clima-F.I.T. is a microfiber
that resists rain, wind and snow wile keeping you
comfortable by allowing excess body heat and perspiration to
escape. Protective, lightweight and extremely breathable.
Clima-F.I.T. microfiber protects you from wind, ligh t rain
and snow. Its high breathability allows for the efficient
passage of moisture vapor to keep you comfortable while
resisting outside moisture. Ultra-fine filaments are tightly
packed into a woven construction. (How fine? Take a half a
paper clip a nd stretch it out to a length of 5 1/2 miles!)
These spaces are too small to allow outside water droplets
to enter, yet large enough to let perspiration vapor exit.
The use of a dense weave also eliminates the need for a
special laminates or coatings. The result is a truly
lightweight, water-resistant fabric with outstanding
breathability and a soft, supple hand.
Case Study -
A running fanatic comes in
your store dripping wet. She says she's tired of getting wet
and wants a jacket that will resist light rain but still
remain breathable. You tell her that, sure, keeping rain out
is important, but the sweat and heat buildup on the inside
is equally as important. Ever try to work out in a yellow
slicker? Clima-F.I.T. provides protective breathability.
THERMA F.I.T. Insulation
Offers an exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio.
You can wear
almost anything to stay warm. But can you still move?
Warm and Light
The tight weave of
Therma-F.I.T. fleece works like a microfiber blanket -
extremely warm, light and comfortable. Lightweight freedom
from the cold. Therma-F.I.T. microfleece provides superior
warmth. It dries quickly, compresses easily and has the s
oft hand of cashmere - thin, warm, light and stretchy.
Exceptional thermal properties come from the use of
microfibers (ultrafine, soft, supple yarns) in a dense
weave. The fleece is brushed on both sides, which doubles
the air pockets. This "dead" air is the best insulating
vehicle known. Body heat warms the air in these spaces,
which retain their energy and resist heat loss to the outer
surface. Equal in temperature range to comparable products,
but with much less bulk, these densely constructed
Therma-F.I.T. garments provide greater warmth and wind
resistance that other thermal fabrics.
Case Study -
Roger Rockslide takes a lot
of day hikes and wants a comfortable top that will keep him
warm but won't take up too much room when he stuffs it in
his day pack. Roger has two options. He could continue
toting his heavy wool jacket or he could opt for lightweight
freedom of movement. Therma-F.I.T. allows for this
lightwight warmth.
STORM F.I.T. Superior Waterproof Protection
The waterproof yet breathable solution.
What's so
great about keeping water out when you're already soaked
from the inside?
Waterproof
Storm-F.I.T. as a breathable
fabric carries away sweat. As a waterproof shell, it repels
outside moisture. And as a soft, supple garment, it will
keep him not only totally dry but incredibly comfortable.
Case Study -
He's a tech-head. he's an
avid cross-country skier. And he knows he needs a jacket
that will keep him dry when he's skiing hard in heavy snow
and sleet. (Perspiring lightly in a refreshing mist he is
not. We're talking sweating buckets under cloudbu rsts.) But
what he doesn't know is that Nike created Storm-F.I.T.
fabric.
Each garment can be used individually to address specific
needs and conditions. Maybe all you need to go cycling in
Arizona is a Dri-F.I.T. jersey to keep you cool and dry. But
if you're hiking above tree line, you may want to take advan
tage of the layering capabilities of NIKE F.I.T. - Dri-F.I.T.
fabric to stay dry and comfortable, Therma-F.I.T.
microfleece for warmth, Clima-F.I.T. microfiber for
protecion from the elements and Storm-F.I.T. microfiber for
waterproof breathability. What ever your needs, NIKE F.I.T.
fabrics have a solution |
