SPRING SUMMER 2012 COLLECTION

“Performance-driven urban sportswear”

 

Zegna Sport unveils its newest line of performance driven sportswear featuring advanced technical materials and precision design, inspired by the new era of revolutionary mobility. Sleek lines, strong monochromatic tones, bright, bold colors and innovative materials are the cornerstones of the newest Zegna Sport collection – from treated Nappa outerwear with carbon fiber detailing to Microlite leisurewear for maximum form and functionality.

 

Known for its use of high-tech textiles and streamlined designs, the Zegna Sport collection offers a range of outerwear, knitwear and trousers designed to keep the wearer cool and comfortable at work or play. The entire collection features performance-enhanced fabrics in bold monochromatic tones or deep summer colors. Ergonomically designed leather jackets with water-repellent, washable Nappa and carbon fiber inserts are an integral part of the new Zegna Sport Collection.

 

Central to the Spring/Summer 2012 collection:

 

MONOCHROME PROJECT:

A complete wardrobe of fitted monochrome coordinates is the perfect blend of precision and aesthetics. The complete collection of knitwear separates, polos, outwears and accessories, in pure black and white, pairs casual elegance with high-impact design.

 

COLOR-BLOCKING:

In sharp contrast to the monochrome series, Zegna Sport’s Spring/Summer Collection includes a line of bright polo knitwear and nylon jackets in color-blocking fabrics, as well as bold color accents on otherwise monochromatic pieces.

PERFORMANCE LEATHER:

Ergonomically designed leather jackets, an integral part of the Zegna Sport Collection, are specially treated to endure even the most demanding conditions. The sports-inspired, water-repellent and washable Nappa biker jackets feature perforated details and performance Neoprene inserts. Soft to the touch yet highly resilient, Zegna’s performance leather is perfect for today’s active individual.

 

COOLMAX® FABRICS:

COOLMAX® is a leading Zegna Sport quality and our breathable lightweight denim fabric keeps the wearer comfortable and cool in virtually any situation.

MICROLITE 2.0:

Zegna Sport’s patented Microlite 2.0 utilizes the finest nylon fibers to create a fabric which weighs a mere 36 gr/m2.  The Microlite 2.0 collection consists of foldaway swimwear and jackets with zero weight hardware; the ultimate expression of lightness and performance.

 

SUSTAINABLE PERFORMANCE:

‘ECOTENE’ is Zegna Sport’s answer to sustainable innovation within urban sportswear. This high-performance textile is made from 100% recycled polyester materials including regenerated plastics bottles, and is used in padding, lining, outer fabric, seam taping and inner membrane to provide an ecologically sustainable answer to high-performance apparel – protecting both the wearer and his environment.
