Kymira Women’s Half Zip Fleece

Hardy golfers, braving the fairways in all weathers, will love the Kymira Women’s Half Zip Fleece. Using KYnergy technology, the top not only helps keep you warm and regulates your body temperature (read more about thermoregulation), but also promotes circulation and oxygenation of the blood, enhancing energy availability and recovery.

Featuring a tapered fit, luxurious water-repellent fleece and a high-rise collar to insulate against cold, rain or wind, this is a perfect choice for outdoor enthusiasts and gym goes alike. With zipped pockets, you can train safe in the knowledge that your keys and cash are secure. The wide zip lock neck makes the top easy to take off whilst wearing a snow sports or cycling helmet, but is also perfect for helping regulate temperature.

The fleece is made from our infrared-emitting fabric, a technology that helps keep you warm and regulate your body temperature, but which also promotes circulation of the blood, enhancing energy availability, tissue oxygenation and promoting recovery.

Ideal for all and every sport, this garment is also great for casual use – wear for golf today, a cold morning run tomorrow – and for relaxing anytime.

Best Use

The garments have been engineered by the team of KYMIRA Sport scientists to enhance the wearer’s performance during exercise and to improve the recovery rate post exercise. For optimum results, we recommend wearing your fleece for at least 30 minutes prior to exercise, during your workout, and for at least one hour after exercise.

Kymira Infrared Benefits

Increased Circulation

One of the primary effects of nitric oxide, is with it being a vasodilator. This means it causes our blood vessels to expand, allowing more blood to pass through them. This has numerous benefits from increasing the volume of oxygen and nutrient rich blood to our muscle cells, to accelerating the rate at which waste products are transported away from them and reducing swelling during inflammatory responses. Significantly increased circulation can be seen within 30 seconds of putting a KYMIRA® Sport product on. However, once the garments are removed, you will return to your baseline circulation, within 3 – 5 minutes. This biological excitement of red blood cells can be watched in our live video, presented by our Founder Tim Brownstone above, and we can demonstrate this to you personally in real time during meetings and at all exhibitions at which we exhibit.

Increased Tissue Oxygenation

In randomized double blind, repeated measures studies, KYMIRA® products increased tissue oxygen levels by 20% on average vs a host of control garments that used standard fabrics and/or compression. This increase was a building increase that both peaked and maintained after 70 minutes of wearing the KYMIRA® products.

Increased Energy Production

The chemical unit of energy that powers our cells is Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). When you wear KYMIRA® Sport products, the infrared activates a molecule called Cytochrome C-Oxidase. This is a transmembrane protein in our mitochondria, which mediates the production of ATP. Mitochondria are the powerplants of our cells, where ATP is produced, and Cytochrome C-Oxidase is one of the gateways that allow workers through the power plant. By opening the gateway, ATP is production is increased and your cells have more fuel to carry out their functions.

Thermoregulation

KYMIRA® Sport products help to regulate temperature in a different way to standard clothing. This is due to some of the biological effects already described and some of the physical effects of the fabrics themselves. In colder climates, our fabrics warm up quicker, and then store the thermal energy 63% longer than an equivalent weight fabric would. In hotter climates however, they dry 65% quicker on average, dissipating excess heat through evaporation. Tying these two effects together is the increase in circulation which allows your body to more efficiently transport heat around KYnergy® exposed areas, resulting in a regulating effect rather than just heating or cooling. Our customers wear KYMIRA® base layers in all-weather environments and the products have been used to great effect to regulate in temperatures ranging from -35 to +48 degrees.

Pain Relief

There are a variety of pain relief responses that an athlete will experience when using our products. The first is an activation of the same chemical pathways that an opiate would activate (albeit less potently), when Nitric Oxide activates another chemical called Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (or cGMP for short). This process inhibits pain receptors and reduces pain while you are wearing KYMIRA products. Once removed however, this pain inhibition will wear off as your body stops producing Nitric Oxide at such an accelerated rate. There are however, longer pain relief effects that are seen in athletes of all abilities when it comes to delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). Once our products are removed, DOMS does not return. Based on anecdotal evidence, which we are currently clinically testing, this is believed to be because exercising in KYMIRA® Sport products reduces the physiological causes of the DOMS itself.

SPF and Antimicrobial

Our technology contains the mineral Quarts Dioxide. This is not included for infrared purposes, but rather its ability to absorb shorter wavelengths of UV light which is harmful to us. Once absorbed, it converts UV into a longer wavelength which is then more harmful to microbes. This dual effect gives our products a minimum rating of SPF 35 and an antimicrobial effect.
