Nike Pro Combat Hyperwarm - Winter 12/13
Nike have recruited world class players Neymar, Wayne Rooney and Andres Iniesta to show the benefits of their Winter 12/13 range of Nike Pro Combat apparel items, aiming to keep players focused on the game in adverse weather conditions.
Nike Pro Combat Hyperwarm apparel keeps the body regulated for inclement weather with breathability, water resistance and a streamlined fit to ensure players stay focused on the game no matter the weather.
The top modelled by Neymar, Rooney and Iniesta is the long-sleeve Nike Pro Combat Hyperwarm. The Hyperwarm features Nike Shield technology to keep the lower arms dry in the rain, while Dri-FIT Max helps pull sweat off the skin to eliminate chill. Large ventilation over high-heat zones helps regulate temperature during outdoor play.
The Nike Pro Combat Hyperwarm Dri-FIT Max Shield top also features 3D-structured Dri-FIT fabric with a DWR (durable, water-repellent) finish for wind and water resistance. The fabrication utilizes this 3D structure to help keep athletes dry and reduce cling from perspiration.
Nike often remind us of their ethos to create innovative products to help their athletes perform, and it seems there's a current buzz around the effects of external factors on players. We've recently seen the launch of the ACC collection for ball control in all weather conditions, complimented by the high-vis Maxim ball to ensure visibility during winter months, and now Nike want to snsure players are focused purely on performance without comfort and temperature issues.
