Ciele puts a balaclava in the hood of its cold weather running hoodie
@cieleathletics builds the IBTHoody, its cold weather running hoodie, from a new fabric: COOLmatic EXP DIAMAfleece lite with carbon, chosen for temperature regulation. It is form fitting and breathable, with a balaclava built into the hood. Ciele designs it to be worn on its own, or over the Sorino HLSTShirt or the DLYLongsleeve for runs below zero.

Ciele's FSTCap Ethereal is the year's best-designed running object
@cieleathletics's FSTCap Ethereal is the best-designed running object of the year so far, and the case sits in the materials rather than the shape. Stretch TERRAstop ripstop forms to the head instead of sitting on it, and carbon-embedded knits are doing work usually left to a liner, managing moisture, odor and durability mile after mile. The result reads lightweight and structured at once, a combination running caps rarely pull off. Most caps are still just fabric stretched over a shape. This one treats the fabric itself as the technology, and that is the harder problem to solve.
