Women's 3/4 Stabilyx Tight - Black/Rainbow

BEST FOR: JOINT SUPPORT, KNEES, HIPS/CORE

The Stabilyx tights provide optimum targeted support to the core and knees. They're ideal for activities with lateral motion such as skiing and snowboarding and for athletes seeking our best form of knee support. The patented CW-X Support Web™ bands together the muscles and ligaments of the lower leg to stabilize the knee and reduce vibration for increased efficiency. The CW-X Support Web™ also harnesses the midsection, supporting the lower abdominals, hips and back to channel power through the core. Variable compression facilitates circulation during and after activity, minimizing lactic acid build-up so that you can be active longer and recover faster.

The HydraQuiver

Tired of bouncing and sloshing hydration packs? Solution found, meet the HydraQuiver™. Sporting a silky smooth webbing, long mesh quick access shoulder pockets, elastic zipper pulls for silent running and a bounce free ride! And yes, it's still Made in the USA.

The HydraQuiver is a tiny pack with loads of features. Thick foam padding and big air channels provide ample support and maximum breath-ability. The water bottle holder sports easy access with a wide funnel opening and perfect retention. Another bonus? We use a reusable water bottle. Use it then throw it in the dishwasher. For your nighttime safety we put reflective webbing at the bottom of the pack. It lights up nicely in the dark, but double duties as an attachment area for your jacket, lights, etc. Wear instructions are simple, put on the pack, cinch it down snug and your good to go! Yes it fits the ladies just as well as the guys.

YOU'RE DIRTY...KEEP YOUR CAR PURDY!

The Transition & Seat Wrap is the answer to parking lot and trail head gear changes as well as keeping that clean seat of yours...well, clean! We designed the wrap with the simple goal of not having your towel fall off while changing from regular clothes to run/bike/surf/etc gear. It stays around your waist securely via a built in belt clip. The second feature of the towel is the zip on hoodie, which you slip over your seat back in your car so when you sit down, the wrap does not slide off your seat.
