Unfortunately not everyone has the fortune of living in sunny Florida and in this time of year mother nature can be your worst enemy. Outdoor activities become harder to keep up with and what is supposed to be a fun game ends up being a freezing experience. As winter slowly arrives our wardrobe should change as well and here you’re going to learn a couple of tips on how to do it.
Layering clothes is the move to keep you warm but this is no ordinary layering. The secret is to wear materials that can keep you cool and at the same time that can encapsulate the warm air in between the layers. The first thing you should wear is something tight skin made in lightweight fabrics like Dri-Fit and Climacool. High end garments that wick moisture away so it doesn’t freeze against your skin. The choice for the second layer is something that can hold your body temperature, usually soft, sueded sweater fabrics. As for the third layer think of it as something that captures everything inside. This outer layer needs to be a waterproof , windjammer jacket protecting the inner layers from rain and cool breeze.
Seems a lot for a trip to the court! One thing you need to take into consideration is that the clothes you choose are strictly made for training purposes. Major brands have developed technologies that suit the needs of athletes delivering greater fabric resistance, optimum moisture control and designs that don’t impair mobility and exertion. Some have incorporated UVA protection fibers for extra protection.
Our current collections mix also performance underwear, specialized compression sleeves and long socks that cover the leg up the knees, these besides having a therapeutic relief can do the layering trick easier.
