X-BIONIC COREFUSION RUN VEST & JACKET
Lead concept, apparel design, and development for the Corefusion Run Jacket and Vest, completing the X-Bionic winter range for road and trail runners. The pieces add a lightweight windproof outer layer to the range while keeping the X-Bionic DNA through a seamless knitted insert on the back. Its moisture-managing yarns move sweat away from the body so the runner doesn’t get chilled during changing efforts. The main fabric is windproof and water-repellent but keeps a soft, natural hand rather than a plasticky feel. Reflective details add visibility in low light, and integrated storage keeps essentials close on long runs.
apparel design & development lead: Andrea Rühr
