X-BIONIC XCEED RUN LINE WOMEN & MEN SS25
Mid-price seamless run line for men and women, developed across four silhouettes: running tights, short sleeve shirt, tank, and women’s crop.
The brief required integrating X-Bionic’s sweat management technology into a seamless construction at an accessible price point. Core to the development was the precise placement of push–pull yarn within mapped sweat zones — instructing the supplier on yarn specification, placement, and knit structure to actively transport moisture away from the skin. Getting this right at a mid-price tier required close supplier communication and iterative sampling to maintain the technology without cost inflation.
Pattern engineering was developed gender-specifically across all four silhouettes, with fit sessions and field testing to validate performance across the full range.
