highest levels. We use detailed research<br />

series and intensive studies to create<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance that’s not just exciting –<br />

it’s a scientifically proven fact. For example,<br />

the patented X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Partialkompression ®<br />

lowers the heart rate*, which can bring an<br />

energy advantage that smooths the path to<br />

new world records.<br />

* These results were obtained in a comparison study at the State University of Verona.<br />

THE SPIRIT THAT DRIVES<br />

OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE


BEYOND THE POSSIBLE 22<br />

THE BEST MEANS<br />

TO INCREASE<br />

PERFORMANCE:<br />

KNOWLEDGE.<br />

Per<strong>for</strong>mance limits seem unsurmountable. Until a<br />

revolutionary idea outflanks them. New knowledge<br />

and new technologies continually redefine the<br />

boundaries of the achievable.<br />

Once, the steam engine revolutionized<br />

the industrial world. Today, computers<br />

and global networking are opening up<br />

unimaginable opportunities. And human<br />

physical per<strong>for</strong>mance still harbors great<br />

potential. The more we research, develop<br />

and test, the better we can make use of<br />

this with intelligent solutions. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> embodies the<br />

peak of this fascinating development.

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> follows the<br />

products around the world. In extreme<br />

heat and cold, in punishing humidity and<br />

alone is not enough to create world-changing<br />

innovation. Pronounced stubbornness<br />

is also a must. The excellent X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> developers<br />

have both capacities to a fault. Just as<br />

in the development of a high-per<strong>for</strong>mance<br />

automobile, they spend weeks on<br />

end switching between time-consuming<br />

engineering, testing and processing the<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation obtained. Their difficult, inchby-inch<br />

work takes them to the wind tunnel,<br />

load simulations and realistic testing<br />

THE MAGIC OF BEING<br />

DISTINCTIVE


BE AN ICON 36<br />

DRIVE AN ICON<br />

When the first super sports cars hit the pavement in 1963 under<br />

the sign of the bull, it was the birth of an icon. Since that day,<br />

the name of <strong>Lamborghini</strong> has evoked pure passion. Suggestive<br />

dimensions and an extroverted design spark true enthusiasm.<br />

The extreme per<strong>for</strong>mance can be fully controlled, and even<br />

experts can open up new options <strong>for</strong> pushing the envelope.


37<br />

WEAR AN ICON<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® redefined per<strong>for</strong>mance and made history. Wherever in<br />

the world high-tech functional clothing is mentioned, X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

is the benchmark and icon of progress. That lends the X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> collection twice the reputation. It’s<br />

both an object of prestige to be worn and technology that brings<br />

you to a new level of per<strong>for</strong>mance.

Aktiv-Bund ®<br />

Like taut musculature, the outer skin has perfect proportions. Refined lines<br />

provide breathtaking dynamics. Shapes typical of the brand are reflected in<br />

the design language.<br />

Despite all the aesthetics, every detail<br />

is a component of perfectly integrated,<br />

high-per<strong>for</strong>mance technology. Super<br />

sportswear and super sports cars both<br />

fascinatingly exemplify the concept of<br />

„exclusive per<strong>for</strong>mance“. That also shows<br />

in the masterful handling of high-tech<br />

materials and the brilliant manufacturing<br />

of each detail. But the parallels between<br />

clothing and vehicle start much earlier,<br />

during the development and design phase.<br />

Developers also integrate bionic discoveries<br />

into the time-consuming engineering<br />

process, to perfect the interplay between<br />

material, function and the human body.<br />

Does the human become a machine? Or<br />

does the machine mutate into a beast?<br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> themselves provide the<br />

answer. For over 50 years, the bull has<br />

been the central feature of the brand’s<br />

logo. Explosive power under refined<br />

control is what every wearer of super<br />

sportswear from X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> devotes to his or her favorite<br />

sport. It’s well known that you can’t have<br />

too much per<strong>for</strong>mance. Even if you don’t<br />

use all of it, it’s good to know that you<br />

could at any time.

Make life a racetrack.<br />

Pure motor sports enthusiasm accelerates<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong><br />

provides the high-tech equipment you<br />

need. It looks fast even be<strong>for</strong>e you start<br />

to move, and spreads a racetrack atmosphere<br />

that couldn’t be more authentic if<br />

you were in the pit lane of a Super Trofeo<br />

bike? It doesn’t really matter where the<br />

next stage of an exciting life takes you,<br />

as long as the super sportswear feeling is<br />

always within reach.<br />

Of course, sooner or later we all know<br />

that every race comes to an end. Then it’s<br />

time to relax and recharge. You can go<br />

into your inner pit lane, so to speak, and<br />

let the pro mechanics ready you <strong>for</strong> the<br />

next start. The X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> collection provides intelligent<br />

functions to create the perfect ambiance.<br />

3D structures and a complex network of<br />

ventilation channels cool you when you<br />

It provides outstanding com<strong>for</strong>t, too.<br />

HEAT IN MIAMI 46


47<br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> Huracán LP 610-4 Spyder: 2-door super sports car with 2 seat | Drive Ten-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with 610 HP (449 kw) and all-wheel drive<br />

Acceleration: 0 to 100 km/hr in 3.4 seconds | Top speed: 324 km/hr | In<strong>for</strong>mation: www.lamborghini.com<br />

It’s an icon, extroverted, seemingly<br />

made just <strong>for</strong> the colorful backdrops<br />

of Miami. Stars and gangsters are<br />

equally at home here. It makes you<br />

wonder which side the Huracán Spyder<br />

is on. Is it one of the good guys,<br />

or the bad?<br />

It’s a high-per<strong>for</strong>mer with brilliant instincts, powerful and loud:<br />

The Huracán Spyder from <strong>Lamborghini</strong>. A hurricane on four<br />

wheels, with an unstoppable 620 HP under the hood to reach<br />

breathtaking top speeds of 324 km/h, <strong>for</strong>cing its pilot into a<br />

cockpit that seems to have been ripped directly from a fighter<br />

jet. One of a kind! A character that rumbles and complains at<br />

low speed where other cars slide meekly through the Art Deco<br />

district. It’s true, it has a bit of a vicious touch under the warm<br />

Floridian sun. But that’s perfect. Because „vicious“ stands <strong>for</strong><br />

extreme dynamics and the ultimate driving experience.<br />

Heroes are always in high demand, but without a little villainy<br />

they’re just boring. Even Batman wrestles with his inner demons.<br />

Miscreants simply have more pepper, and they’re the salt of<br />

every good story. Even Michael Jackson brought that point home<br />

with “I’m bad”. Bad boys fascinate us and stick in our minds. But<br />

admit it. At the end, we still hope the superhero will win.


HEAT IN MIAMI 48<br />

BAD TO THE BONE.<br />

It’s true. Samuel L. Jackson and John<br />

Travolta were cool together in „Pulp Fiction“.<br />

But would the Huracán — if the model had<br />

been on the market in 1994 — have been<br />

the dream machine <strong>for</strong> the coolest gangster<br />

duo of all times? Of course not. The<br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> is too powerful and tense<br />

<strong>for</strong> Travolta’s Vince Vega. After all, the<br />

always-high contract killer let loose an<br />

accidental shot during a com<strong>for</strong>table<br />

cruise in a Chevy Malibu.<br />

The late Health Ledger was brilliant as the<br />

psychopathic Joker in “The Dark Knight”.<br />

The powerful Huracán would surely have<br />

done that charismatic villain proud as a<br />

getaway car. But the destructive energy of<br />

the Joker may have cut the super sports<br />

car’s screen time too short.<br />

Hannibal Lecter would surely have appreciated<br />

the refined design of the <strong>Lamborghini</strong>.<br />

But the powerful engine sound would definitely<br />

have been too much <strong>for</strong> the cultivated<br />

ears of the most brilliant serial killer of<br />

all time.<br />

These arch-villains would clearly have no<br />

taste <strong>for</strong> a <strong>Lamborghini</strong> and its infernal<br />

power. But Dr. Strange? The protagonist of<br />

the latest Marvel hit, played by Englishman<br />

Benedict Cumberbatch, picked the Huracán<br />

as his super sports car of choice. The striking,<br />

sporty model in black is the first choice<br />

<strong>for</strong> the headstrong, daring character, and<br />

unleashes the superhero in Dr. Strange.

<strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> combines the DNA and unique<br />

design of the legendary Italian auto brand with the<br />

futuristic technology of X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® . Time and again,<br />

this high-tech sportswear pushes athletes through<br />

their limits — whether cycling, running, skiing or in<br />

the cockpit of a private plane — and at the same time<br />

trans<strong>for</strong>ms them into a design icon.

FEEL!<br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> creates them <strong>for</strong> the road.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® builds them <strong>for</strong> the skin:<br />

perfect interfaces that redefine the limits<br />

of physics and give human beings breathtaking<br />

capabilities. What does it feel like<br />

when the two come together? A selfexperiment<br />

on the legendary Nordschleife.<br />

“Trim and aerodynamics are more important,”<br />

the instructor at the <strong>Lamborghini</strong><br />

Driving Experience reassures me in the<br />

pit lane, preempting my worries about<br />

my limited field of vision. I’m sitting<br />

low to the ground and way back in the<br />

LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN LP 610-4. The<br />

helmet on my head also limits my field of<br />

view. So I have no choice but to trust my<br />

feelings. And that’s exactly what it’s all<br />

about today: feeling what happens, using<br />

your own body as a sensor in curves, when<br />

braking and accelerating. Of course, I’ve<br />

prepared my body <strong>for</strong> high per<strong>for</strong>mance:<br />

under my racing overalls I’m wearing the


55<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Energy Accumulator ® EVO, a<br />

high-tech design using special fibers that<br />

surrounds the skin where it’s in contact<br />

with the seat and optimizes skin climate,<br />

blood supply, and nutrient supply. Every<br />

sense is 100 % receptive. Ready to go!<br />

Mechanoreceptors in the skin<br />

Meissner bodies<br />

Ruffini bodies<br />

Free nerve endings<br />

I’m free to start into the Green Hell. 610<br />

horses punch me brutally in the back, my<br />

helmet hits my <strong>for</strong>ehead, and my hands<br />

claw <strong>for</strong> a grip on the leather wheel. Extreme<br />

but exquisitely balanced <strong>for</strong>ce catapults<br />

me in the direction of Hatzenbach.<br />

Then the first right turn. The sides of the<br />

seat notify the left side of my body all too<br />

Vater Pacini bodies<br />

Merkel cell<br />

receptors<br />

The motor and sensory nerves <strong>for</strong>m two parts of an inseparable whole in the human body. The body controls<br />

all movement using five sensorimotor regulation circuits. It perceives stimuli, transmits them, and sets them in<br />

motion. But these regulation circuits are not closed systems in themselves. They react to external stimuli using<br />

mechanoreceptors in the skin. Stimuli that X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® technologies make specific use of.


56<br />

The AirDuct Pads technology<br />

allows X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® to distribute<br />

pressure over large areas. They<br />

are designed to provide effective<br />

ventilation over sweat-intensive<br />

areas. That keeps you cool during<br />

active phases. As soon as you<br />

stop sweating, the layer of insulating<br />

sweat trapped in the air pads<br />

protects against overcooling.<br />

While braking be<strong>for</strong>e the Ahrenburg,<br />

gigantic yet still controllable <strong>for</strong>ces press<br />

me into the five-point harness. In high<br />

gear and at top speed, I rocket through<br />

the Fuchsröhre. Then the inhuman compression<br />

be<strong>for</strong>e the Adenauer Forst. A<br />

slight lift reduces the vertical top load <strong>for</strong><br />

tires, chassis, and spoiler. Even the corners<br />

of my mouth stay open, I’m enjoying<br />

myself so much.<br />

clearly that the 1 G limit has been reached.<br />

The next double-S gives me plenty of opportunity<br />

to feel my way further towards<br />

the limits. Then comes a full back massage<br />

as I accelerate towards the Quiddelbacher<br />

Höhe. My inner seismograph discerns the<br />

crest be<strong>for</strong>e the Flugplatz to the millimeter,<br />

so I hit the steering point towards the<br />

Schwedenkreuz perfectly.<br />

The pushing and pulling, pressing and<br />

shaking of the seat, wheel, and belts give<br />

me a high-resolution snapshot of my<br />

driving situation at all times. Thousands<br />

of sensory signals registered by the body<br />

hit the brain in milliseconds, help achieve<br />

perfect handling and precision-targeted<br />

steering maneuvers. Every ridge, every<br />

curb, every difference in grip speaks to<br />

me. This kind of precision could never be<br />

achieved with the eyes alone.<br />

The many jumps give the Nordschleife<br />

a series of weightless stretches. But my<br />

contact with the seat still never quite disappears<br />

and I meld with my <strong>Lamborghini</strong>,<br />

becoming part of the machine. Or is that<br />

exactly the opposite?<br />

At over 3 G, the centrifugal <strong>for</strong>ce rips<br />

vertically at my head as I spin through the<br />

Karousel. Agile and full of highly differentiated<br />

responses, the <strong>Lamborghini</strong> takes<br />

the more than 180-degree curve with<br />

ease. My hands are in optimum dialog<br />

with the grip of the front axle, intuitive<br />

movements, optimum lines. Metzgesfeld,<br />

Bergwerk, Hohe Acht: my inner map associates<br />

each one with specific emotions.<br />

At the end of my Tour d’Emotion in the<br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> Driving Experience, I tear<br />

over the Döttinger Höhe at over 300 km/h.<br />

And I suddenly see how decisive the communication<br />

capability of the automobile<br />

and racing clothing truly are. Feeling won!<br />

Down towards the Pflanzgarten: fast, precision alternation along the ideal line from the left into<br />

the right curve. Good drivers take advantage of the lateral steering <strong>for</strong>ces to perceive exactly<br />

where the clean, firm track ends and the slippery, dirty asphalt zone starts.

THE PERFECT<br />

FUSION OF MAN<br />

AND MACHINE.<br />

FREIGABE<br />

As far as the laws of physics are concerned,<br />

everyone is equal. Both driver<br />

and automobile are subject to the natural<br />

<strong>for</strong>ces that act upon them – just like all<br />

moving or stationary objects. Specifically,<br />

these are inertia, gravity, momentum,<br />

friction, centrifugal <strong>for</strong>ce, and kinetic<br />

energy. These interacting variables have<br />

preoccupied automotive designers and<br />

race drivers since the first motorized<br />

vehicles. Their challenge is to create<br />

a work of art with maximum dynamics<br />

that is still controllable. The engineers at<br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> are considered true masters<br />

of this subject. The precise feedback from<br />

the steering, the calculable stability with<br />

fast load transfer and excellent chassis<br />

balance with extreme acceleration or<br />

abrupt braking maneuvers make it possible<br />

<strong>for</strong> the driver to burn his strategy into<br />

the tarmac with millimeter precision. The<br />

12 cylinder power plant in the rear end<br />

adds more than nearly limitless power – it<br />

also provides the most physically beneficial<br />

central mounting position. As a result,<br />

the <strong>Lamborghini</strong> turns on its vertical axis<br />

even more dynamically.

ADVANCED<br />

FEEDBACK<br />

CONCEPT.<br />

Body-Grip Effect<br />

A pincer-shaped seat with a<br />

flexible angle between seat and<br />

back. The driver is <strong>for</strong>m-supported<br />

by the seat, optimizing contact to<br />

help compensate <strong>for</strong> deceleration<br />

<strong>for</strong>ces.<br />

With a visionary study in high-per<strong>for</strong>mance racing<br />

seats, the X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® presents a trailblazing interface<br />

between human and machine.<br />

Race car drivers refer to their driving instinct:<br />

the ability to sense a vehicle’s limits<br />

by intuitively controlling it with the sum<br />

total of all their sensory impressions. This<br />

is only successful when the corresponding<br />

signal reaches the driver’s brain quickly<br />

and accurately. No wonder that real racing<br />

seats offer little in terms of the snuggle<br />

factor. The task of the seat is much more<br />

like that of a total body interface. Physical<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation like the lateral acceleration,<br />

torque, and grip are to be relayed to the<br />

millions of the mechanoreceptors in the<br />

driver’s skin in milliseconds so that he can<br />

process it at lightning speed with precise<br />

reactions – <strong>for</strong> example, a finely calibrated<br />

countersteering maneuver to bring a wayward<br />

rear end back on track. Where the<br />

seat and driver are in contact, intelligent<br />

interfaces are required.<br />

Innerlap Tube Area<br />

A seat surface with a lifted area<br />

between the legs maximizes the<br />

contact surface between the seat<br />

and the inner thighs, transmitting<br />

lateral steering <strong>for</strong>ces more directly<br />

and distributing G <strong>for</strong>ces better.


61<br />

Ultralight Carbon Yarn<br />

Extremely light, anti-static carbon<br />

fibers are integrated into the<br />

outermost contact areas. The<br />

specially developed fabric offers<br />

great weight advantages and,<br />

thanks to intelligent workmanship,<br />

a number of other benefits: It has<br />

an anti-static effect, regulates<br />

temperature, reflects heat and<br />

stops bacteria.<br />

Spinal Signal Zone<br />

and AirVent Channels<br />

Transmits detailed vehicle<br />

impulses to the skin sensors<br />

along the spinal column to<br />

provide a plastic image of the<br />

<strong>for</strong>ces currently impinging.<br />

Integrated air vent channels<br />

optimize blood flow as well as<br />

skin climate.<br />

Belt ISO-Pads<br />

The patented 3D AirDuct structure<br />

distributes pressure evenly over a<br />

large area. The thermal decoupling<br />

of the belt and overalls with the<br />

back-ventilated 3D structures<br />

reduces heat build-up and helps<br />

maintain an ideal skin climate.<br />

Side Support Diffuser<br />

Horizontal depressions in<br />

the seat provide continual<br />

ventilation <strong>for</strong> your body. They<br />

prevent heat blocking, optimize<br />

blood flow in your extremities<br />

and maintain sensitivity <strong>for</strong><br />

ride- or drive-related responsiveness.<br />

Lateral Neuro-Respone-Spots<br />

Contact points increase the pressure<br />

on relevant areas of the body,<br />

supporting direct, rapid signal<br />

transmission and reducing reaction<br />

time.<br />

Smart Tilting Technology<br />

IIntelligent tilting technology<br />

moves your body to the inside of<br />

the curve, thus minimizing the<br />

perceived lateral acceleration. This<br />

reduces the lopsided load on stabilizing<br />

muscles in extremely fast<br />

turns and in long-distance races.<br />

A SUCCESS FOR<br />

60 MILLION<br />

YEARS. AND WHAT<br />

IT TEACHED US.<br />

The shark applies an efficient principle<br />

using currents replace: in order to breath,<br />

water rushes through a shark’s jaws and<br />

to its gills as it moves <strong>for</strong>ward. There, oxygen<br />

is absorbed, transfered to the bloodstream<br />

and circulated through the body<br />

where it becomes saturated with carbon<br />

dioxide, which is eventually dumped back<br />

into the water through the gills.<br />

This is the inspiration <strong>for</strong> the X‐<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

AirIntake System. Fresh air is <strong>for</strong>ced<br />

through the ducts in the front into the<br />

inside of the jacket where it absorbs moisture<br />

and then leaves the jacket through<br />

the openings on the upper body at the<br />

DOMINATION,<br />

BASED ON<br />

SPECIAL SKILLS.<br />

The Thorny Devil that lives in the<br />

Australian desert with little water has<br />

developed a system of water transporting<br />

channels on its body. These channels<br />

transport water from moisture and fog to<br />

its mouth using capillary action. According<br />

to the fractal principle (self-replicating<br />

principle) of self-similarity the structures<br />

come up with decreasing scale.<br />

Thus the effectiveness of the water<br />

conducting structures increases at<br />

the same time. X‐<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® developers<br />

translated this capillary effect to athletic<br />

apparel to strategically transport sweat<br />

to parts of the body in need of intense<br />

cooling.<br />

of heat comes from the chest and back<br />

because these surfaces are intended to protect<br />

your internal organs. This is where the<br />

3D Bionic Sphere ® System leaves a thin layer<br />

of sweat that is not recognised by your body<br />

as dampness. Sweat Traps ® absorb excess<br />

sweat, allow it to evaporate, and then dispose of it<br />

through thermal dynamics. Remaining on<br />

your skin is only a pleasant amount of sweat<br />

that allows cooling. Without sweat, there would<br />

be no cooling. Thus: in contrast, with low outside<br />

temperatures the complex system of channels<br />

provides insulation during rest phases. By that you<br />

avoid the risk of overcooling after active phases.<br />

Always the optimum per<strong>for</strong>mance temperature<br />

thanks to 37 °C CCR-Technology.<br />

Every engine — even your body — has a<br />

temperature range in which it can produce<br />

high per<strong>for</strong>mance. If it’s too hot or too cold,<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance penalties or even injury can<br />

threaten. Conventional sportswear offers<br />

either cooling or insulation and can’t combine<br />

both functions. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® extends the<br />

range of applications, combining cooling<br />

and insulating functions to reduce the<br />

valuable energy lost to excessive chill or<br />

sweating. And they’re ready <strong>for</strong> outstanding<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance when optimum conditions<br />

can be guaranteed — conditions like those<br />

the unique 37 °C CCR-Tecnology from<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong><br />

provides. In a similar way to the complex<br />

interplay between water, oil and air cooling,<br />

37 °C CCR-Technology combines different<br />

physical effects into a single effective regulatory<br />

circuit with controlled heat dosage<br />

and without the risk of cooling, always with<br />

a single goal: high-precision compensation<br />

Cools when you sweat. Warms when you are cold:<br />

Thanks to 3D Bionic Sphere ® System.<br />

Nobody can control the weather. But you<br />

can control how it influences your own<br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> provides maximum independance<br />

with a patented, globally unique<br />

system from X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® . It optimises the<br />

important function of perspiration as a<br />

factor regulating body temperature, and<br />

provides important resources <strong>for</strong> more<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance. The 3D Bionic Sphere ®<br />

System leaves a fine film of moisture in<br />

significant zones of the skin, which the<br />

body doesn’t perceive as moisture.<br />

Sweat Traps ® draw in excess perspiration,<br />

wick them out <strong>for</strong> evaporation and dispose<br />

of them through thermodynamics. Nothing<br />

remains on the skin except a pleasant<br />

residual moisture that cools. Because:<br />

no sweat – no cooling. At low outdoor temperatures,<br />

the complex system of channels<br />

provides an insulating effect in rest<br />

phases. That prevents the risk of cooling<br />

after sports.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Partialkompression ® : Stronger than the laws of thermodynamics.<br />

At speeds of 325 km/h, the airflow shooting<br />

of diffusers on the vehicle’s back end. The<br />

sensors task is to make specific changes<br />

to the pressure distribution on the<br />

grip and quicker cornering. The X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

Partialkompression ® uses exactly this kind<br />

of well-thought out influence to keep skin<br />

cool. Parallel pressure webs create higher<br />

INTERACTION.<br />

Boost your per<strong>for</strong>mance with patented THE TRICK ® Technology.<br />

During sports activity, the body<br />

temperature rises continuously. Only<br />

when the curve reaches the overheating<br />

zone does the body start taking<br />

countermeasures. The delay in sweat<br />

production and the cooling effect means<br />

that a high temperature peak must be<br />

reduced. The body is still in the optimum<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance range, and thanks to THE<br />

TRICK ® sweat production has already been<br />

initiated. The early onset of the cooling<br />

effect quickly and effectively reduces the<br />

body temperature, which is still low. The<br />

athlete retains his or her energy reserves<br />

Special woven structures placed along the spine<br />

simulate the entire body warming up. In addition, it<br />

creates a localised zone of warmth where the body<br />

temperature climbs distinctly higher than on the<br />

rest of the body.<br />

2 Sensors along the spinal cord<br />

Within the zone of warmth, they register a strong<br />

warming trend. The sensors transmit their observation<br />

along the spinal cord to the brain.<br />

The brain interprets the signals as a sign that<br />

the entire body is overheating. It kicks in sweat<br />

production although the body in fact is still near<br />

Thorny Devil Technology, a new dimension of power improvement.<br />

Some technology has been optimised over<br />

millions of years. It’s the secret of the success<br />

of survival artists like the thorny devil,<br />

a desert lizard that manages its fluid<br />

metabolism perfectly even in the most<br />

extreme heat. From it, X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® has<br />

distilled the ground-breaking Thorny Devil<br />

Technology. Against all expectations — and<br />

against the <strong>for</strong>ce of gravity — perspiration<br />

is wicked up through channels to zones<br />

of the body where it can exert its cooling<br />

effect most efficiently. More cooling means<br />

less bodily stress. The result: improved<br />

1 Sweat Collector<br />

Sweat Collectors are placed where the body accumulates<br />

the most sweat. This is where sweat is soaked up like<br />

a sponge and moved gradually through the thickened<br />

structures of the HydroPort yarn to Sweat Transporters.<br />

With this network of transporting yarn, sweat is shuttled<br />

to the Sweat Distributor zone.<br />

2 Sweat Transporter<br />

Like a network of tiny canals, the sweat-transporting<br />

HydroPort yarn wraps around the body. Sweat on the<br />

abdomen and back is continuously guided to the Sweat<br />

Distributors on the upper thighs. Sweat Transporters<br />

ensure that sweat can evaporate there, exactly where<br />

it can have the largest possible cooling effect on<br />

overheated muscles.<br />

3 Sweat Distributor<br />

The design of the Sweat Distributors takes its lead from<br />

the anatomy of the muscles. Its construction combines<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Partialkompression ® and knit-in ridges that<br />

cool off muscles. Guided by Sweat Transporters, sweat<br />

is gathered over a broad area in the Sweat Distributors,<br />

which are at-the-ready as a cooling mechanism. If heat<br />

is produced, evaporation immediately counteracts it.<br />

Sweat Distributors provide additional cooling <strong>for</strong><br />

heat-intensive muscle areas.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® SpaceFrame Technology.<br />

Sooner or later, the air between the<br />

sportsman’s active body and conventional<br />

sports clothing is saturated with moisture.<br />

Athletes perspire, and the moisture-rich<br />

air builds up. The body threatens to overheat.<br />

Jerseys, jackets and pants become<br />

moist, stick to the body, feel heavy and<br />

unpleasant. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® prevents this problem<br />

with the SpaceFrame Technology. High<br />

technology that permits optimum sports<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance. The term “spaceframe”<br />

comes from the automobile industry.<br />

Here, it stands <strong>for</strong> a lightweight but highly<br />

functional chassis. It saves energy and<br />

offers optimum function with very little<br />

weight. A human being isn’t an automobile.<br />

But the human also needs an outer<br />

shell <strong>for</strong> maximum sports per<strong>for</strong>mance<br />

that combines light weight and optimum<br />

functionality. The X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® SpaceFrame<br />

Technology offers you exactly that, taking<br />

into account the special requirements of<br />

the human body.

SpaceFrame provides special elements on the back<br />

to provide continuous air circulation to replace<br />

Super Trofeo with rear wheel-drive only. In this season, started<br />

with a record breaking grid of 47 cars in Monza, these unique<br />

vehicles will monopolize the championship’s entry list in Europe<br />

and in the other two continental series to be run in Asia and<br />

North America. A marque that is famous and esteemed all over<br />

the world, and a car that’s conceptually very similar to GT3 cars,<br />

are a remarkable combination which is continuing a challenge of<br />

technology and sport at the very highest levels.

SUPER TROFEO ASIA<br />

SUPER TROFEO NORTH AMERICA<br />

Following three successful seasons in Europe from 2009, in 2012<br />

the <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Super Trofeo Championship headed to Asia<br />

and since then the series is growing fast. With races on famous<br />

international circuits like Shanghai, Fuji and Sepang, and teams<br />

from Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Japan, the Asian series<br />

provides an exclusive plat<strong>for</strong>m <strong>for</strong> Gentlemen drivers, entering<br />

individually or in teams of two.<br />

After its expansion into the Asian market, <strong>Lamborghini</strong> brought<br />

the one-make series to the North America in 2013, where the<br />

races are held alongside the prestigious IMSA WeatherTech<br />

SportsCar Championship. Twenty-plus cars grids on popular<br />

circuits like the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in Cali<strong>for</strong>nia or the<br />

Circuit of The Americas in Texas ensure exciting action. In 2015,<br />

North America hosted the <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Blancpain Super Trofeo<br />

World Final, at Sebring circuit.

TURNING HEADWIND INTO AN ADVANTAGE.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI BIKE JACKET<br />

When wind resistance makes the difference in speed,<br />

aerodynamic <strong>for</strong>ms become important. And not just<br />

in automobile design. The X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> Bike Jacket follows the same rules.<br />

Distinctive openings in the outer layer provides<br />

cooling, follow the laws of aerodynamics and make<br />

thorough use of gravity. They’ve demonstrated their<br />

efficiency in wind tunnel tests in Milan, Italy. One<br />

result from testing: Based on measurement data, the<br />

engineers at X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® were able to determine the<br />

anatomically correct position of the air intakes. The<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Bike Jacket<br />

is inspired by the future. And it’s being built today in<br />

Italy.<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

1 Converter Port<br />

3 3D Bionic Sphere ® System<br />

5 Diffuser on the collar<br />

The converter port is located in the upper middle of the<br />

back. Air flowing along the back is used to manipulate<br />

wind resistance. Fine little vortices at the break-away<br />

edge are captured by the 3D Bionic Sphere ® System in<br />

the interior of the jacket. Vapour pressure generated by<br />

body heat guides moisture resulting from perspiration out<br />

of the jacket. The air streaming over the jacket takes the<br />

moisture up and along to the final flow separation point.<br />

2 V6-AirIntake System<br />

Along the back, the six V-shaped V6-AirIntakes complete<br />

the concept of back ventilation. Starting at the angle of the<br />

V-shaped AirIntake, the air flowing past <strong>for</strong>ms a tiny vortex<br />

that pulls the moisture out of the jacket. The layers of air<br />

above slide stably past. Within the interior of the jacket,<br />

the V6-AirIntake system acts as a valve, allowing the air<br />

circulating there to escape.<br />

Located on the chest and back, the 3D Bionic Sphere ®<br />

System is in use without any layer of moisture or heat.<br />

And with no risk of cooling down when you have a rest.<br />

The cooling feature is only activated when your body<br />

starts to warm up and you begin to sweat. If you don’t<br />

start to sweat, the insulation takes hold.<br />

4 Anatomical climate port AirIntakes<br />

The area of the chest is a very effective place to handle<br />

cooling <strong>for</strong> the entire body. The large muscles of the<br />

chest generate more thermal energy even while you’re<br />

resting. The muscle tone also accounts <strong>for</strong> nearly a<br />

quarter of the energy consumption of the entire body.<br />

And when muscular work gets added to the equation,<br />

the body temperature rises. Large muscle groups like<br />

the pectoral muscles are cooled specifically and early.<br />

That has an effective impact on the entire body,<br />

preserving per<strong>for</strong>mance.<br />

The diffuser on the collar uses the pressure of body<br />

heat to allow warm, moist air to rise in a controlled<br />

manner and escape.<br />

6 Diffuser on the cuffs<br />

Precise ducts on the cuffs create a highly com<strong>for</strong>table<br />

band on the sleeve and let the moist, hot air escape.<br />

Material:<br />

High elasticity in 6 dimensions. Extremely resistant<br />

against mechanical stress on the inside and outside.<br />

Sweat is carried through the fabric, supported by<br />

body head.<br />

Aerodynamic Fit<br />

One result from the wind tunnel:<br />

The Aerodynamic fit is perfect <strong>for</strong> slim, athletic builds.<br />

The jacket is close-fitting and creates virtually no wind<br />

resistance.<br />

AS HIGH-TECH AS YOUR BIKE.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI BIKE SHIRT<br />

Full body engagement – most people only consider<br />

muscular work. But the thinking at X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® goes<br />

far beyond that. How can we make the best possible<br />

use of the condensed energy of perspiration? How<br />

can carefully located compression improve the supply<br />

of oxygen and nutrients? The science of bionics<br />

is full of answers. The X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> Bike Shirt lets you experience them<br />

directly. It combines four key technologies <strong>for</strong> the<br />

future of functional clothing. When you need your<br />

PERFECT RACE TRIM FOR<br />

YOUR BODY.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI BIKE BIB TIGHT<br />

Sweat costs too much to be wasted. Sport clothing<br />

manufacturers didn’t consider that <strong>for</strong> a long time.<br />

Instead, they took every possible opportunity to keep<br />

the skin as dry as possible. But moisture can transport<br />

heat very quickly, and it’s an essential part of the<br />

body’s cooling system. Automobile manufacturers<br />

knew that right from the first hour. That’s why<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® brings perspiration back to the skin. When<br />

moisture evaporates, this results in evaporative<br />

cooling, and that cools the body. That gives people<br />

wearing X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Bib<br />

Tight more staying power, and more per<strong>for</strong>mance.<br />

Note: it’s not the one who’s driest at the finish line<br />

who wins. It’s the one who sweats most efficiently.<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

1 3D Bionic Sphere ® System<br />

Turns sweat into power. The 3D Bionic Sphere ® System on<br />

the back prevents unpleasant moisture, heat and cooling<br />

risks when you have a rest. Only when the body warms up<br />

and you start to sweat does the cooling effect kick in. If<br />

you don’t start to sweat, the insulation takes hold.<br />

2 Sweat Collector<br />

They are located where the body has the largest collection<br />

of sweat. Moisture is absorbed here like a sponge and<br />

moved to the sweat transporters by the gradually thicker<br />

structures of the Hydroport yarn. This network of transport<br />

threads takes the sweat into the sweat distributor zones.<br />

6 Sweat Transporter<br />

The moisture-transporting Hydroport yarn surrounds the<br />

body like a network of microchannels. On the stomach<br />

and back, sweat is continuously transported to the sweat<br />

distributors on the upper thighs. Sweat transporters<br />

ensure that sweat evaporates where it can have the<br />

greatest possible cooling effect <strong>for</strong> overheated muscles.<br />

The ground-breaking Thorny Devil Technology turns the<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Bib Tight into the<br />

champion of self-regulating cooling. The system integrating<br />

Sweat Collectors, Sweat Transporters and Sweat<br />

Distributor zones covers nearly the entire surface<br />

area. Using standards found in nature, excess sweat is<br />

collected on sweat-intensive areas via capillary action.<br />

The sweat is guided using a dense network of channels<br />

to those muscle areas that heat up more quickly. That<br />

enables an optimal cooling effect.<br />

Guarantees effective ventilation so moisture is quickly<br />

wicked and transported away. No sweat means insulating<br />

air pockets in the wavelike structure protect against cold.<br />

The Air-Conditioning Channel ® of fine mesh weave is an<br />

air guidance system that continuously ventilates the feet<br />

and legs. The movement of the arches of the feet works<br />

with the Air-Conditioning Channel ® during each step to<br />

pump moist, overheated air out of the interior of the shoe<br />

and replace it with fresh air as the foot rises again. This<br />

ensures dry, naturally air-conditioned feet.<br />

IN THE LEAD EVEN WHEN WET.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI RUNNING JACKET<br />

Rain costs per<strong>for</strong>mance — in conventional running<br />

jackets, anyway. Because penetrating moisture<br />

destroys the optimum power climate. Conventional<br />

membranes are also not capable of wicking water<br />

droplets outwards. Symbionic ® membrane of the<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Running Jacket<br />

is different. Without letting moisture penetrate,<br />

its novel outer skin wicks an enormous quantity of<br />

moisture from inside to the outside. Both water vapour<br />

and droplets. Like the lightning-fast closing of the<br />

roof of a convertible, the X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> Running Jacket protects you from the<br />

elements. So your running doesn’t have to end up as<br />

swimming.<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

1 Front-Ventilation Operator<br />

If per<strong>for</strong>mance increases during running, whether because<br />

of an uphill stretch or a sprint interval, specific areas of<br />

the body are subject to strain. The energy metabolism is<br />

increased and temperature rises temporarily. The<br />

“sweating” due to that load lasts a few minutes more.<br />

It’s a nice feeling, when you can experience spontaneous<br />

“bursts of ventilation” even in the rain. Opening the zip<br />

would mean opening yourself up to the rain. To avoid that,<br />

the front ventilation operators can be opened individually<br />

using a push button. The opening is slim; water running<br />

down is captured and guided downwards as though it<br />

were in a rain gutter. A hexagonal mesh below stops<br />

water droplets while still permitting the unrestricted<br />

exchange of air.<br />

structure that permits no moisture to penetrate while<br />

still allowing air to circulate unhindered.<br />

3 Convection Flaps<br />

During running, cooling air can be let in at the chest and<br />

clavicle. Air flow results that surrounds the whole upper<br />

body. Air circulates and can be guided out of the jacket in<br />

back. Water can’t penetrate.<br />

4 ISO-Shoulder<br />

The ISO-Pads on the shoulder retain insulating air and<br />

protect this area from chills.<br />

6 Diffuser on the collar<br />

The diffuser on the collar uses the pressure of body heat<br />

to allow warm, moist air to rise in a controlled manner and<br />

escape.<br />

7 Reflectors<br />

8 Seam-Taped<br />

2 Quick Ventilation Nozzle<br />

5 Pre-shaped elbows<br />

Quick to zip open. The opening runs along the clavicle.<br />

There are also spacers at the beginning and end of the zip<br />

within the jacket which keep the jacket away from you.<br />

Hollow spaces <strong>for</strong>m under them that take in rising warm<br />

air. A brief opening of the zip is enough to move a large<br />

quantity of overheated air out of the jacket in a short time.<br />

To protect from water spray there is a hexagonal mesh<br />

Optimal fit and the highest range of motion are guaranteed<br />

due to anatomically pre-<strong>for</strong>med elbows.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI RUNNING PANTS<br />

Conventional running pants ignore your anatomy.<br />

Running doesn’t just rely on training of your thigh<br />

muscle potential during activity. Cooling perspiration<br />

plays the key role in that process. The X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Running Pants bring the<br />

perspiration to where it can have a per<strong>for</strong>manceboosting<br />

a sponge and moved to the sweat transporters by the<br />

gradually thicker structures of the Hydroport yarn. This<br />

network of transport threads takes the sweat into the sweat<br />

distributor zones.<br />

4 Sweat Distributor with Partialkompression ®<br />

The design of the Sweat Distributors takes its lead from<br />

the anatomy of the muscles. Its construction combines<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Partialkompression ® and knit-in ridges that<br />

cool off muscles. Guided by Sweat Transporters, sweat<br />

is gathered over a broad area in the Sweat Distributors,<br />

which are at-the-ready as a cooling mechanism. If heat is<br />

produced, evaporation immediately counteracts it. Sweat<br />

Distributors provide additional cooling <strong>for</strong> heat-intensive<br />

muscle areas.<br />

The ground-breaking Thorny Devil Technology turns<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Running Pants<br />

into the champion of self-regulating cooling. The system<br />

integrating Sweat Collectors, Sweat Transporters<br />

and Sweat Distributor zones covers nearly the entire<br />

surface area. Using standards found in nature, excess<br />

sweat is collected on sweat-intensive areas via capillary<br />

action. The sweat is guided using a dense network of<br />

channels to those muscle areas that heat up more<br />

quickly. That enables an optimal cooling effect.<br />

A new benchmark in compression technology. Partialkompression<br />

® accelerates the transport of venous blood back<br />

to the heart against the <strong>for</strong>ce of gravity. This improves<br />

blood circulation and the supply of nutrients. The heart<br />

and circulatory system are relieved, and the heart rate<br />

falls. The energy saved is then available to the athlete as<br />

a reserve. The gradual compression also helps regeneration<br />

and reduces the risk of thrombosis. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

Partialkompression ® takes advantage of compression<br />

without neglecting cooling.<br />

Similarly to the mid-mounted engine design of a<br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong>, the pants also require a special thermal<br />

strategy to direct hot air away from the body and avoid<br />

overheating. This is achieved with the dorsal heat<br />

transfer zone. The extremely fine mesh between the<br />

compression ridges allows heat to dissipate effectively.<br />

area on the back. With its vertical ducts, the ClimaSphere<br />

System utilizes the rising body heat during strenuous<br />

sporting activity to balance the temperature. In the rest<br />

phase, the air stored in these ducts warms the body. The<br />

design ensures an aimed air exchange in the selected<br />

zone within the clothing system. This allows <strong>for</strong> extremely<br />

effective removal of very moist, warm air from the<br />

Super Trofeo Pilot Jacket V.3 <strong>for</strong><br />

optimal climate control during<br />

When you start to sweat, your neck gets moist very quickly.<br />

This is usually due to the fact that materials directly<br />

on the skin are less climatically active. Air circulation is<br />

no longer possible. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong><br />

exclusively uses high-tech material around the inner collar<br />

that permits the continuous exchange of air to whisk<br />

of the diffuser are built into the collar so warm, moist air<br />

rising up inside the jacket can be guided out.<br />

The high metabolic rate of the athlete and the resulting<br />

heat creates air circulation within the X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> Super Trofeo Pilot Jacket V.3 itself.<br />

The air is conducted to the back section of the garment<br />

where the 3D Bionic Sphere ® ventilation channels go<br />

about their role of keeping the athlete cool and dry. The<br />

openings on the exterior of the 3D Bionic Sphere ® System<br />

are directly exposed to the wind, accentuating the Bernoulli<br />

effect (suppression) within the jersey. Temperature<br />

and humidity regulation takes place at various levels<br />

within the system, keeping you cool.<br />

DEFEAT THE HEAT OF THE RACE.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI FIRESHIELD SHIRT<br />

Cockpit temperatures of over 50 degrees. Hard fights<br />

<strong>for</strong> every position. Lightning-fast driving manoeuvres.<br />

They impose incredible physical demands on the<br />

driver. The specific stresses on the muscles, heart<br />

and circulation were the subject of precise study by<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® engineers. On the road – and in the lab.<br />

Then they developed the perfect interface between<br />

human and machine: the X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> FireShield Shirt. The exclusive Bionic<br />

Aramid fiber used can withstand temperatures of up<br />

to 400 °C. The millimetre-thick fabric integrates a<br />

patented adaptive system <strong>for</strong> body cooling as well as<br />

other technologies directed towards specific zones<br />

of the body <strong>for</strong> improved perspiration management,<br />

better muscle coordination and more com<strong>for</strong>t.<br />

circulation in this area. The 3D-knit technology<br />

prevents the material from clinging to the body<br />

whilst still providing effective ventilation.<br />

Guarantees effective ventilation so moisture is quickly<br />

Developed <strong>for</strong> the underarm area, they prevent dripping<br />

sweat and cool the body particularly effectively.<br />

4 Air-Conditioning Channel ® in the chest area<br />

The chest area includes part of the climate channel<br />

system. Physiological studies have shown that the chest<br />

area is an optimal zone <strong>for</strong> quick and effective venting<br />

and cooling. Exchanging fresh air over a system of<br />

channels cools the chest area without spreading a<br />

“cold” sensation throughout the body. The constant air<br />

movement along the Air-Conditioning Channel ® also<br />

effectively draws moisture away from the sweat zones.<br />

The unfolding of the weave on the bellows principle<br />

ensures that the insulating effect remains even in the<br />

bent condition. The flexibility of the Expansion Ribs ®<br />

and the elasticity of the thread permit resistance-free<br />

motion. Fatigue symptoms due to stress like the angled<br />

arm do not occur.<br />

6 Air-Conditioning Channel ®<br />

The Air-Conditioning Channel ® is a ventilation system<br />

of channels that flow around the body, continuously<br />

carrying away moisture and warmth. It allows air to flow<br />

to body regions not normally accessible by fresh air<br />

circulation.<br />

2 3D Bionic Sphere ® System<br />

The 3D Bionic Sphere ® System works from its position<br />

on the chest and the back. Without the sensation<br />

of wetness or heat. No risk of overcooling during<br />

recovery. The cooling is activated only when the body’s<br />

temperaturerises and sweating begins. If no sweat is<br />

present, then the system serves as insulation. The 3D<br />

Bionic Sphere ® system only begins to cool once you are<br />

sweating.<br />

4 Aktiv-Bund ®<br />

The Aktiv-Bund ® adapts to any size leg and hip<br />

without slipping or constricting.<br />

The hollow of the knee perspires quickly and heavily.<br />

To process this sweat, a finely knitted mesh allows<br />

moisture to pass through but does not impede knee<br />

motion. Sweat evaporates and is pushed outward with<br />

the help of body warmth. The risk of over-cooling does<br />

not exist in this small area.<br />

In terms of muscle per<strong>for</strong>mance, the inner thigh is<br />

less reactive to cold. We all instinctively know this:<br />

When our hands are cold, we put them between our<br />

thighs to warm them up, helping us re-establish<br />

our overallsense of warmth faster. The Innerlap<br />

AirConditioning Zone ® has been placed in this area. It<br />

is a finely knitted mesh with zero insulation. Cooling<br />

there<strong>for</strong>e occurs initially through the exchange of<br />

air. As soon as sweat has started to evaporate, the<br />

cooling process steps it up a notch since the<br />

activation system lies directly next to the skin.<br />

Located on the , the 3D Bionic Sphere ® system is used<br />

without a feeling of moisture or heat. No risk of cooling<br />

activated when your body starts to warm up and you<br />

begin to sweat. If there’s no sweat, the insulation takes<br />

hold. The generous Sweat Traps ® here <strong>for</strong>ming the 3D<br />

Bionic sphere ® system stop sweat even as it <strong>for</strong>ms,<br />

so the first phase of the footsore condition is already<br />

interrupted.<br />

A knee can bend up to 160 °: however, most<br />

undergarments can’t withstand this stress without<br />

being pulled thin and, hence, resulting in a loss of<br />

functional insulation. In contrast, the accordionlike<br />

construction of the Expansion Ribs ® retains its<br />

insulating properties rather than losing them when<br />

the knee bends. A highly flexible system of chambers<br />

and channels spreads open with each movement,<br />

releasing the warm air stored inside.<br />

Sometimes things have to increase speed. You need relief<br />

and ventilation. Opening the zip would let out too much<br />

heat, and the jacket would flap open and hinder every<br />

movement. In situations like this, the collar spacer can<br />

The best protection from wind and weather.<br />

The shoulder is one of our most stressed joints. If the joint<br />

and muscles cool down, its function can be significantly<br />

restricted. When the arms are at rest, the Expansion Ribs ®<br />

have an insulating effect. Their bellows mechanism has<br />

waves that fill with body-heated air to insulate against the<br />

cold. Then, when the arms are needed, the air is pressed<br />

out with no resistance. At rest, the shoulders are perfectly<br />

well-insulated. But when work is needed from the shoulder<br />

region, it’s available with no obstacles.<br />

When you start to sweat, your neck gets moist very<br />

quickly. This is usually due to the fact that the materials<br />

directly on the skin are not active to the climate.<br />

Air circulation is no longer possible. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> uses only high-tech material<br />

around the inner collar that permits the continuous<br />

exchange of air to whisk moisture away from the skin as<br />

the collar so warm, moist air rising up inside the jacket<br />

can be guided out.<br />

To achieve big goals, you have to pay attention to small<br />

details: threads and fibers. For us, they’re the basis of top<br />

the smallest things. Macrotermes:<br />

• High pore volume and absorbent power<br />

• High expansion capability and elasticity<br />

A perfect body climate is not achieved by chance. It’s<br />

the result of well-thought-out technology:<br />

The scientifically acknowledged ClimaSphere System<br />

is built in into a large area on the back. With its vertical<br />

ducts, the ClimaSphere System utilizes the rising body<br />

heat during strenuous sporting activity to balance the<br />

temperature. In the rest phase, the air stored in these<br />

ducts warms the body. The design ensures an aimed<br />

air exchange in the selected zone within the clothing<br />

system. This allows <strong>for</strong> extremely effective removal of<br />

very moist, warm air from the X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT FOR ULTRA PERFORMANCE.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI FORMULA SKI: RADIACTOR PANTS<br />

The difference between the perfect temperature and<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Formula Ski Radiactor<br />

Pants fall within this range. Our innovative skiing<br />

technology solves an age-old conflict of objectives –<br />

maximum warmth and minimum weight. This is made<br />

possible by the exceptional material, XITANIT ® 2.0.<br />

The fine fiber reflects body heat and is extremely thin<br />

and light. In addition, optimum temperature stability<br />

is guaranteed thanks to a close-meshed network<br />

of technologies – above all the unique 3D Bionic<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

1 Air-Conditioning Channel ®<br />

4 ISO-CalfPad: Anatomically adapted<br />

6 Two-Step Front 3D Bionic Sphere ® System<br />

The Air-Conditioning Channel ® is a ventilation system<br />

of channels that flow around the body to continuously<br />

transport moisture and heat away. It makes it possible<br />

<strong>for</strong> air to reach regions of the body that are normally<br />

not accessible to fresh air circulation.<br />

2 Air Guide ®<br />

Air Guides ® work like spacers and borders along the<br />

AirConditioning Channel ® . The Air-Conditioning Channel ®<br />

must be combined with the Air Guides ® <strong>for</strong> winter use.<br />

3 ISO-Pad<br />

In winter, targeted insulation of individual body parts<br />

guards against ambient coldness can prevent the body<br />

from freezing. This is why ISO-Pads over the hipbones<br />

and the more subtle ISO-Pads on the buttocks retain<br />

body heat that is necessary to guarantee interior organ<br />

functionality.<br />

Calf muscles can cool down quickly, particularly after<br />

short breaks and even if the body is still warm. This<br />

can lead to a risk of injury. The ISO-CalfPad retains<br />

the body’s warmth. To that end, the knitted fabric’s<br />

wavelike structure lies over the skin, <strong>for</strong>ming channels<br />

<strong>for</strong> storing air in a manner similar to the ISO-Shoulder.<br />

The warmer air retained in these channels definitively<br />

delays the cool-down of the calf musculature and adjusts<br />

to the body’s overall perception of warmth.<br />

5 3D Bionic Sphere ® System<br />

in the lower part of the back specifically prevents sweat<br />

from flowing towards the seat. If perspiration collects<br />

there, friction can quickly cause painful wounds. The<br />

3D Bionic Sphere ® System prevents that right from<br />

the start.<br />

9 InsulationPads with X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Partialkompression ®<br />

Assist in the retention of heat in the thighs. Undercooled<br />

muscles are susceptible to injury, and greatly<br />

under-cooled muscles can feel numb. Even more<br />

dangerous is when the cooling slows the muscle<br />

reaction time, leading to the increased threat of<br />

muscle injuries and risk of accidents. This increase<br />

can be as much as 60 % in the case of skiing, <strong>for</strong><br />

example. InsulationPads reduce such risks. Shaped like<br />

waves, their protection lies over a large surface of the<br />

most superficial thigh muscle, thereby retaining the<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI GOLF JACKET<br />

Achieving a combination of unrestricted freedom of<br />

movement and optimum weather protection – such<br />

was the challenge when it came to developing the<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Golf Jacket.<br />

The solution came in the <strong>for</strong>m of a high-tech, twopiece<br />

jacket. Whilst the symbionic ® membrane outer<br />

jacket provides protection from the wind and rain, the<br />

fabric inner guarantees the best elasticity.<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

8 SpaceFrame inside the jacket<br />

The amply dimensioned 3D Bionic Sphere ® System is<br />

designed <strong>for</strong> tough physical exertion and provides cooling.<br />

2 6-dimensional elasticity<br />

Only knitwear can provide such a degree of elasticity.<br />

High-tech yarns, knitted structures and highly elastic flat<br />

seams are featured in the X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Shelter Jacket in order<br />

to ensure extreme elasticity and guarantee a perfect fit.<br />

3 Expansion Flex Zone at the shoulder joint<br />

The wavelike structure of the ISO-Pads lies over the<br />

shoulders, keeping the body warm and guarding against<br />

chills. Conventional jackets let a lot of warmth escape in<br />

this area because the weight of the jacket and a golf bag<br />

compresses any insulation material, thus losing any of<br />

their value.<br />

5 Front pocket with waterproof zipper<br />

6 Waterproof front zipper<br />

The SpaceFrame system works as a spacer inside, keeping<br />

the air circulation pathways open.<br />

9 Shelter Cover to pull over<br />

The X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Golf Jacket<br />

is made up of two complementary parts. The inner part<br />

is a vest that has a knit fabric in the area of the shoulder<br />

girdle. That’s the only way to ensure that every movement<br />

of your golf swing can be carried out without hindrance.<br />

As protection from wind and rain, the Shelter Cover can<br />

also be pulled over it. It is also made of water-repellent<br />

symbionic ® membrane.<br />

Flexibility of the Expansion Flex Zone and the<br />

stretch of the yarn enable unrestricted movement.<br />

In addition, the Stretch Ribs allow a problem-free<br />

riding position in the shoulder area without pulling<br />

up the jacket. That guarantees all of the different<br />

technology stays where it belongs to optimally<br />

achieve intended function.<br />

7 Diffuser<br />

Warm, moist air rises from the SpaceFrame in the back<br />

into the collar. The vertically aligned channels of the<br />

diffuser structure on the high-cut inside of the collar<br />

maintain a distance from the neck, <strong>for</strong>ming a chimney<br />

up which the water vapour from perspiration upwards.<br />

THE TUNING KIT FOR YOUR HITTING ARM.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI GOLF ARM PRECIZER<br />

With the X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Golf<br />

Arm Precizer the entire competence of our engineers<br />

is at your side. Literally. Because they’ve customdeveloped<br />

this per<strong>for</strong>mance-enhancing high-tech<br />

design <strong>for</strong> the swing dynamics of a left-handed or<br />

right-handed golfer. Muscle-specific compression<br />

places receptors under your skin into a preliminary<br />

tension that lets them respond more quickly and more<br />

precisely. Different knit structures reduce the risk<br />

specific muscles from cooling and injury. Your stroke<br />

energy is focussed, and your game turns into a<br />

power play.<br />

6 Expansion Ribs ®<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Partialkompression ® keeps peripheral nervous<br />

cells ready <strong>for</strong> action at all times, optimises the exchange<br />

of neural impulses between muscles and the brain, increases<br />

muscular reaction, contraction and coordination, and<br />

reduces the risk of injury and fatigue.<br />

2 X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Partialkompression ®<br />

Compression is used to increase per<strong>for</strong>mance and improve<br />

muscle control. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® Partialkompression ® , optimised<br />

<strong>for</strong> blood flow through the capillaries and other blood vessels,<br />

is the only compression product that has a tissue-like<br />

structure to offer all the advantages of compression while<br />

simultaneously allowing the blood to flow into the smallest<br />

capillaries of the body, preserving its cooling function.<br />

Especially on hot days, that results in lasting per<strong>for</strong>mance.<br />

Strained muscles vibrate heavily. Deathly <strong>for</strong> a precision<br />

swing. There<strong>for</strong>e, the hitting arm, which gives power to the<br />

strike, is supported by high partial compression.<br />

4 Asymmetric compression – Leading arm<br />

The guiding arm has to be straight, move smoothly<br />

and must not waver in any way. The mid compression<br />

reduces muscle vibration and hence assists with<br />

perfect movement.<br />

5 Neural-Response-Bandage on the elbow<br />

Stabilises and supports your elbows during a tee shot.<br />

The Expansion Ribs ® of the elbow cushions create an insulating<br />

additional air cushion when bent. The folding apart<br />

of the weave on the bellows principle means your elbows<br />

won’t cool down.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI GOLF PERFORMANCE SOCKS<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Golf Per<strong>for</strong>mance<br />

Socks are the power package <strong>for</strong> your feet.<br />

Cushion zones in the anatomically important areas<br />

reduce the risk of foot wounds and painful blisters.<br />

Thanks to the active breathing of the newly developed<br />

materials and the mesh knit techniques within the<br />

ventilation zones, your feet are continuously<br />

ventilated and naturally cooled. Heat and moisture<br />

are not retained in the socks, but rather pumped out<br />

of the shoe with the flow of circulating fresh air. Your<br />

feet stay dry and can easily withstand the long periods<br />

of stress at golf tournaments — so you can simply<br />

concentrate on the ball.<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

1 Air-Conditioning Channel ®<br />

The Air-Conditioning Channel ® made from a fine mesh knit<br />

is an air guidance system that continuously ventilates the<br />

foot and leg. Thanks to the springs of the arch of the foot,<br />

the Air-Conditioning Channel ® can pump moist, overheated<br />

air out of the interior of the shoe on every step, replacing<br />

it with fresh air as the foot is lifted. Your feet stay dry and<br />

naturally air-conditioned at all times.<br />

3 X-Cross ® Bandage<br />

A sensitive interaction of tendons, ligaments, muscles<br />

step is all it takes to upset this careful combination. So<br />

it’s important to cushion and stabilise the ankle region<br />

without restricting your freedom of movement. The unique<br />

X-Cross ® cross-ankle bandage is knitted of an elastic<br />

1 Air-Conditioning Channel ®<br />

The Air-Conditioning Channel ® starts at the hottest point,<br />

the arch of the foot, then leads along the foot and leg out<br />

of the shoe. Weight placed on the foot causes the arch<br />

to push down, in turn generating overpressure under the<br />

foot. Warm, moist air is <strong>for</strong>ced out of the shoe. As the foot<br />

relaxes, the arch expands again, causing an underpressure.<br />

Fresh air flows back under the arch. This pump effect<br />

allows moisture and heat to be regulated continuously.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI OUTDOOR RACOON JACKET<br />

Light as a carbon chassis. Sporty cut as slim as the<br />

chassis of a coupé. Loaded with technology as the<br />

cockpit of the Huracán. There’s no outdoor jacket in<br />

the world that combines function and design more<br />

fascinatingly. Characteristic feature on the chest<br />

and back: the two-tone 3D Bionic Sphere ® system <strong>for</strong><br />

peak-per<strong>for</strong>mance sweat management. It cools when<br />

you sweat and warms when you’re cold. Breathable<br />

surfaces on the sides also stabilise the internal<br />

climate, while diffusers on the cuffs efficiently fend<br />

off cold and moisture. And if there’s a shower in your<br />

path: the front zip lets you stay com<strong>for</strong>table as you<br />

keep navigating.<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

The diffuser on the collar uses the pressure of body<br />

heat to allow warm, moist air to rise in a controlled<br />

manner and escape.<br />

2 3D Bionic Sphere ® System on the chest<br />

Physiological studies have shown that the chest area<br />

is the best place to regulate body temperature quickly<br />

and effectively. Without giving the body the impression<br />

that it is getting cold, fresh air from the 3D Bionic<br />

Sphere ® System in the chest area cools down the body<br />

temperature. The air is tempered inside the ducts,<br />

working like a sluice. Hot, moist air is disposed of using<br />

the dynamics of body warmth and then replaced with<br />

new fresh air. No draughts, but perfect ventilation.<br />

The RodTypePaddings on the back, positioned above and<br />

below the 3D Bionic Sphere ® System, ensure effective<br />

back ventilation. Thanks to their special construction, they<br />

retain their function even under pressure. Thanks to their<br />

enormous elasticity, the climate-regulating knit construction<br />

fits perfectly against your body.<br />

X-Lowpounds<br />

• Low specific weight in comparison with<br />

conventional fibres<br />

• High insulation value <strong>for</strong> a relatively thin knit<br />

Diffuser on the collar<br />

When you start to sweat, your neck gets moist very<br />

quickly. This is usually due to the fact that materials<br />

directly on the skin are less climatically active.<br />

Air circulation is no longer possible. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> exclusively uses high-tech<br />

material around the inner collar that permits the<br />

continuous exchange of air to whisk moisture away<br />

from the skin as it <strong>for</strong>ms. The corrugations of the<br />

diffuser are built into the collar so warm, moist air<br />

rising up inside the jacket can be guided out.<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Outdoor Gear. It brings<br />

scientific discoveries from bionics and reliable<br />

solutions from automobile technology to highly<br />

exclusive sporty outfits. The air intakes on the sides<br />

of the pants, just like in a car with a mid-mounted<br />

engine, guide air precisely into the interior. Four<br />

different materials are used to provide stability<br />

without compromises and lasting wear. Every seam,<br />

every detail, every component provides per<strong>for</strong>manceincreasing<br />

function.<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

1 Innerlap AirConditioning Zone ®<br />

3 Pre-<strong>for</strong>med knee<br />

5 3D Bionic Sphere ® System at the tailbone<br />

In terms of muscle per<strong>for</strong>mance, the inner thigh is<br />

less reactive to cold. We all instinctively know this: When<br />

our hands are cold, we put them between our thighs to<br />

warm them up, helping us re-establish our overall sense<br />

of warmth faster. The Innerlap AirConditioning Zone ®<br />

has been placed in this area. It is a finely knitted mesh<br />

with zero insulation. Cooling there<strong>for</strong>e occurs initially<br />

through the exchange of air. As soon as sweat has<br />

started to evaporate, the cooling process steps it up a<br />

notch since the activation system lies directly next to<br />

the skin.<br />

2 6-dimensional elasticity<br />

For outstanding freedom of movement in any situation.<br />

Perfect fit and unrestricted movement are guaranteed<br />

due to the anatomically designed knees.<br />

4 Closable side pocket<br />

Concealed side pocket provides plenty of space <strong>for</strong><br />

passport, camera, lighter, city map or flight tickets.<br />

Sweat Traps ® in the lower part of the back are specially<br />

designed to prevent sweat from flowing towards the seat;<br />

if sweat collects there, painful wounds quickly result from<br />

the friction. Sweat Traps ® prevent that right from the<br />

start.<br />

6 Y-Flex Zone<br />

The Y-Flex Zone guarantees the perfect seat and ideal<br />

freedom of movement in the entire pants. The Y-shaped<br />

arrangement towards the knee guarantees perfect<br />

are straight.<br />

Thanks to nanotechnology, the bionic example of plants<br />

provides a natural self-cleaning process that has been<br />

applied to the surface of X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> Outdoor Pants. It makes them particularly<br />

water and dirt-repellent from outside, as well as being<br />

wash-resistant so it’s always ready to spring into action.<br />

From inside, the material absorbs excess moisture<br />

quickly to provide a per<strong>for</strong>manceenhancing<br />

cooling effect.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI UNDERWEAR SHIRT<br />

When some people per<strong>for</strong>m better than others<br />

on a daily basis, it might be due to X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong>. Because this high-tech men’s<br />

functional shirt provides the ideal per<strong>for</strong>mance boost<br />

directly at your skin. Worn invisibly and com<strong>for</strong>tably<br />

under your clothing, it uses patented technology to<br />

deliver the decisive quantum of additional power<br />

<strong>for</strong> your day on the job or at leisure. To change the<br />

climate <strong>for</strong> the better, there is the adaptive Air-<br />

perfect wearing com<strong>for</strong>t at any time.<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

1 3D Bionic Sphere ® System on the chest<br />

3 Air-Conditioning Channel ®<br />

5 3D Bionic Sphere ® System on the back<br />

Physiological studies have shown that the chest area<br />

is the best place to regulate body temperature quickly<br />

and effectively. Without giving the body the impression<br />

that it is getting cold, fresh air from the 3D Bionic<br />

Sphere ® System in the chest area cools down the body<br />

temperature. The air is tempered inside the ducts,<br />

working like a sluice. Hot, moist air is disposed of using<br />

the dynamics of body warmth and then replaced with<br />

new fresh air. No draughts, but perfect ventilation.<br />

SI1476033T, CN3807886, JP 4 546 734, CA 2475537<br />

The Air-Conditioning Channel ® is a ventilation system<br />

of channels that flow around the body, continuously<br />

carrying away moisture and warmth. It allows air to flow<br />

to body regions not normally accessible by fresh air<br />

circulation.<br />

4 Sweat Traps ®<br />

Designed <strong>for</strong> large underarm areas to prevent<br />

dripping and to cool more effectively.<br />

Cools, when you sweat. Warms, when you are cold. Even<br />

when you’re wearing several layers. The 3D Bionic Sphere ®<br />

System makes it possible. The individual X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® layers<br />

act either separately or combined <strong>for</strong> improved functionality.<br />

The overlapping channel structures run in parallel, offering<br />

perfect regulation of moisture and temperature. This unique<br />

capacity of multiple layers to work together is a patented<br />

technology: X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® SystemGear.<br />

AS HIGH-TECH AS YOUR BIKE.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN BIKE SHIRT<br />

Full body engagement – most people only consider<br />

muscular work. But the thinking at X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® goes<br />

far beyond that. How can we make the best possible<br />

use of the condensed energy of perspiration? How<br />

can carefully located compression improve the<br />

supply of oxygen and nutrients? The science of<br />

bionics is full of answers. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong><br />

<strong>Lamborghini</strong> Huracán Bike Shirt lets you experience<br />

them directly. It combines four key technologies <strong>for</strong><br />

the future of functional clothing. When you need your<br />

best per<strong>for</strong>mance, why should you be satisfied with<br />

anything but the best?<br />

TECHNICAL DETAILS<br />

1 3D Bionic Sphere ® System<br />

Turns sweat into power. The 3D Bionic Sphere ® System on<br />

the chest and back prevents unpleasant moisture, heat<br />

and cooling risks when you have a rest. Only when the<br />

body warms up and you start to sweat does the cooling<br />

effect kick in. If you don’t start to sweat, the insulation<br />

takes hold.<br />

2 AirComPlex-Zone at the upper abdomen<br />

In the solar plexus, directly under the twelfth vertebrae<br />

of the thoracic region, important nerves receive signals<br />

that influence one’s entire well-being. X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Huracán Bike Shirt protects<br />

this sensitive area with special channels. Locked-in<br />

warm air insulates optimally in the cold. The system’s<br />

structure processes excess sweat from physical activity<br />

and ensures appropriate coolness in the core.<br />

3 Expansion Flex Zone at the shoulder joint<br />

Flexibility of the Expansion Flex Zone and the stretch<br />

of the yarn enable unrestricted movement.In addition,<br />

the Stretch Ribs allow a problem-freeriding position<br />

in the shoulder area without pullingup the shirt. That<br />

guarantees all of the differenttechnology stays where it<br />

belongs to optimallyachieve intended function.<br />

4 THE TRICK ® spinal column compression<br />

Your brain generally decides when your body should<br />

switch to cooling mode on the basis of signals from<br />

the nervous system. It’s better when you set the rules<br />

yourself. THE TRICK ® stimulates heating of the entire<br />

body along the spinal column. Sensors report the<br />

heating to the brain, which initiates sweat production<br />

much earlier – long be<strong>for</strong>e overheating can weaken your<br />

per<strong>for</strong>mance.<br />

PERFECT RACE TRIM FOR YOUR BODY.<br />

X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® FOR AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN BIKE BIB TIGHT<br />

Sweat costs too much to be wasted. Sport clothing<br />

manufacturers didn’t consider that <strong>for</strong> a long time.<br />

Instead, they took every possible opportunity to keep<br />

the skin as dry as possible. But moisture can transport<br />

heat very quickly, and it’s an essential part of the<br />

body’s cooling system. Automobile manufacturers knew<br />

that right from the first hour. That’s why X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

brings perspiration back to the skin. When moisture<br />

evaporates, this results in evaporative cooling, and that<br />

cools the body. That gives people wearing X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> Huracán Bike Bib Tight more<br />

staying power, and more per<strong>for</strong>mance. Note: it’s not the<br />

one who’s driest at the finish line who wins. It’s the one<br />

who sweats most efficiently.<br />

6 Sweat Transporter<br />

They are located where the body has the largest collection<br />

of sweat. Moisture is absorbed here like a sponge and<br />

moved to the sweat transporters by the gradually thicker<br />

structures of the Hydroport yarn. This network of transport<br />

threads takes the sweat into the sweat distributor zones.<br />

4 Heat-Exhaust Spots<br />

At the lower back, the body’s internal organs are located<br />

just under the skin surface. A local overheating must be<br />

avoided through heat dissipation. Heat escapes through<br />

Heat-Exhaust spots.<br />

The moisture-transporting Hydroport yarn surrounds the<br />

body like a network of microchannels. On the stomach<br />

and back, sweat is continuously transported to the sweat<br />

distributors on the upper thighs. Sweat transporters<br />

ensure that sweat evaporates where it can have the<br />

greatest possible cooling effect <strong>for</strong> overheated muscles.<br />

5 Sweat Distributor with Partialkompression ®<br />

7 Aktiv-Bund ®<br />

The design of the Sweat Distributors takes its lead from<br />

the anatomy of the muscles. Its construction combines<br />

Guarantees perfect hold without slipping or<br />

perfectly. With it, pressure is removed from sensitive<br />

capillaries and nerves. It is not simply sewn onto the<br />

pant as traditional bike pads are. Instead, X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ®<br />

leaves off the chamois during the manufacturing of<br />

the pants and then sews it in separately by hand so<br />

the fit and elasticity of the pad is not affected by the<br />

pant material. This guarantees fit and com<strong>for</strong>t never<br />

sweat is collected on sweat-intensive areas via capillary<br />

action. The sweat is guided using a dense network of<br />

name they bear. Our Swiss-developed, Italianmade high-tech functional clothing from X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> shares the same heartbeat. We take the captivating aura of luxurious athletic<br />

power and put it directly against your skin: no-compromise per<strong>for</strong>mance, technological brilliance,<br />

combined into a highly emotional experience. Wear X-<strong>BIONIC</strong> ® <strong>for</strong> <strong>Automobili</strong> <strong>Lamborghini</strong> and you<br />

will become a part of that irresistible fascination.”<br />
