Adidas Durability Training Top Sometimes a standard t-shirt just won’t cut it. A tough workout can make them heavy and sticky, which can also get in the way of your performance. But Adidas has designed a game-changer. It’s packed a powerful punch of technology offerings including sweat wicking, compression and durability into the threads of its new Durability Training top. CORDURA® fabric panels are strategically placed for long lasting protection in areas where equipment and body meet, while Adidas Climalite® fabric helps sweep sweat away and Adidas techfit® provides compression where you need it most. Fit, form and function all collide to create a next evolution in durable training apparel. So ditch that old t-shirt. You’ve found a perfect training partner in the Adidas Durability Training Top powered by CORDURA® fabric. Adidas REP ShortsEven just a few short years ago, training shorts were made of relatively thick materi- als that had a tendency to make leave you feeling sweaty, uncomfortable and wish- ing your workout was over before it even started. Adidas has vowed to change thatgame. Performing your best means you demand comfort, durability, breathability and mobility. And now, with the introduction of lightweight yet long lasting CORDURA® fabric into the R.E.P. Out Tough Shorts all of those boxes have been ticked. By weaving Adidas Climalite® technology with four-way stretch, ripstop and abra- sion-resistant CORDURA® Naturalle fabric, these R.E.P. shorts are comfortable, breathable and durable. Not to mention with the 10-inch inseam, no-gap pockets and flat-knit waist, they are designed to look and fit as good as they perform. So even though you’re a guy who doesn’t ahem... “care what you look like when you work out”… we know you wouldn’t object to a stylishly durable pair of shorts either.

Get warm and warmed-up with the new Adidas Tough Pant – the perfect combination of style, durability and performance for any training day. These pants are engineered with two leading fabric technologies – sweat-wicking Adidas Climalite® fabric to help keep you dry, and abrasion-resistant woven CORDURA® fabric front reinforcement panels to make sure those hard-wear areas stay hard-wearing. All this performance and durability wrapped up in a stylish, slim fit silhouette so that you look good too while you put up your next PR.
