custom fit that is flexible for a woman's unique body features, and range of sizes and shapes, while providing quick-access to key essentials like fluid and nutrition." June Angus, co-founder, Amphipod Running Gear "Women today are driven by a deeper understanding of what they wear. It's no longer just about style, but about performance, technology, and comfort. ey seek apparel that will elevate their performance and when you merge this into women specific/flattering silhouette, it resonates. We oen hear from customers at our flagship store - espace | MTL - how much they appreciate that they're not just wearing the 'women's version' of a men's style, but something designed for them. I think the RDCRPSinglet is a great example, featuring HOLLOWMesh fabric, which is part of our COOLmatic | EXP fabrics. Carbon is embedded into the fabric, helping to regulate your body temperature while providing permanent anti-odor properties. e silhouette itself is designed specifically for women; featherlight, flowy, and stitch-free to prevent any chafing." Catherine Langelier, apparel designer, Ciele Athletics "For the ASICS brand, feedback is an essential part of our product development process. e most common piece of feedback we get from female runners is how important distraction free running is to them, simply meaning the expectations they have of their gear to perform and how they prioritize comfortable products that give them confidence in their runs. is type of feedback was instrumental in conceptualizing our Nagino Collection, our line of apparel designed to help every woman find her inner state of calm through mindful movement. Each garment in the collection is designed with intention — from the built-in technology to the smart storage pockets — built to inspire body confidence through movement."
