Set to hit the courts in Melbourne for the 2015 Australian Open, Fila’s sponsored athletes will debut the innovative, new Platinum collection. Platinum offers a cohesive range of fashions, marked by fresh new fabrics, design details that showcase a high-end flavor, and stand-out styles. Training pieces were created to complement tennis apparel, for complete looks that can easily be worn on and off-court. As Fila’s most advanced line yet, technology is a crucial component of the Platinum story.
Fila’s breakthrough Platinum collection features INVISTA’s THERMOCOOL ™ fabric, designed to optimize the body’s natural thermal capabilities through smart fiber cross-sections: Duoregulation ™ adapts to the wearer’s needs. Offering energy and wellness, Duoregulation ™ provides overall comfort helping you to be warm when you feel cold and cool when you feel hot. Add to that ultra-sleek reflective finishes, laser-cut, no-sew seams, hyper-modern silhouettes composed of color blocking and sharp curves, and intelligently placed media pockets that accommodate your every tech device. A vibrant color palette filled with bold hues like diva pink and shocking orange, adds to Platinum’s futuristic vibe.
