One example is thermoregulating fabrics that contain microcapsules filled with phase change materials (PCM). These capsules respond to changes in body temperature by absorbing, storing and releasing heat as needed. Other technologies include breathable mesh fabrics and nanotechnology surface treatments that can actively reflect or absorb heat depending on the ambient temperature.
Temperature-regulating clothing is essential for athletes who train in extreme climates, such as during winter training or high-intensity training in hot environments. For runners and cyclists, this type of clothing can contribute to better performance and comfort by effectively regulating body temperature and reducing the risk of overheating or hypothermia. These advanced features make training clothing more adaptable and comfortable regardless of the climate.
