On the back of its successful TechLoom breeze Merino wool runner, APL has launched what it calls its “most sustainable and luxe apparel collection”, using Merino wool, naturally.
The LA-based athleisure brand has once again collaborated with The Woolmark Company, creating a versatile 10-piece capsule collection, designed to take you from travel to training. Developing unique wool and wool-rich fabrics unique to each garment, the Woolmark-certified collection offers men’s and women’s silhouettes in a distinctive colour palette of neutrals and muted pastels in ecru, powder blue, burgundy and charcoal.
With a focus on using natural fibres, the collection features technically advanced products with natural Australian Merino wool for its inherent performance qualities. Benefits include Merino wool’s ability to draw moisture away from the body, leaving wearers cool and comfortable, superior odour management for less frequent washing, resulting in less water use, and increased fibre strength for longer-lasting wear for more sustainable investment pieces.
“With the APL x Woolmark apparel collaboration, we looked to further solidify ourselves as leaders and originators of the luxury performance category,” said APL co-founder Adam Goldston. “We took arguably the world’s finest super fibre, Merino wool, and used it as the foundation to create this beautiful and functional collection that you can use in all aspects of your life from travel to training.”

2018 hat die Marke Athletic Propulsion Labs® (APL) aus den USA ihren bislang nachhaltigsten und leichtesten Laufschuh eingeführt und in Zusammenarbeit mit The Woolmark Company die Kollektion APL TechLoom Breeze Merinowolle auf den Markt gebracht. Jeder Schuh besteht zu 80 % aus australischer Merinowolle, innovativ verstrickt mit dem patentierten TechLoom-Obermaterial von APL, das gleichzeitig dehnbar ist und seine Ausgangsform behält. Diese einzigartige Kombination liefert eine höhere Elastizität, stärkt den Schuh und erlaubt ihm, den Fuß optimal gestützt natürlich zu umschließen, besonders während leistungsbetonter und sportlicher Aktivitäten.
Der Laufschuh aus Wolle – online für Männer und Frauen erhältlich – nutzt die neueste passgenaue Stricktechnologie, was bedeutet, dass der Schuh in seine endgültige Form gestrickt wird. So wird der Abfall im Vergleich zum herkömmlichem Zuschneiden und Vernähen des Ausgangsstoffes verringert. Diese innovative Gestaltung erhöht außerdem die natürliche Atmungsfähigkeit der Wolle, da die Technologie Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten ohne Nähte, zum Beispiel atmungsaktive Elemente, ermöglicht.
