How To Layer For Outdoor Activities

The TERREX Layering Guide When we’re out in nature, layering is important. Layering allows us to add and remove clothing so that we can respond to the weather as it changes. From lightweight base layers, to outdoor fleeces to waterproof jackets, we’ve designed a flexible wardrobe to keep you comfortable in every situation. The adventures we have in nature come in all shapes and sizes. And nature can throw anything at us. The TERREX Adventure Wardrobe is versatile layering designed to be the perfect remedy to that - keeping you layered up, ahead of nature’s next move. Four layers of clothing make up the wardrobe - the Base layer, Mid layer, Insulation layer and Outer layer. These are available in multiple colourways across three main sports: Trail, Hike and Snow Sports. "I always need to feel prepared in the mountains…which is why layering is so important.” Michi Wohlleben, adidas TERREX mountaineer Every adventure starts from a solid basecamp. The base layer is worn on activities of all intensities to lock away moisture, feeling like a second skin. The mid and insulation layers are designed for lightweight, reliable warmth without restricting freedom of movement. The windproof and waterproof outer layer keeps the weather out and keeps you feeling dry. Our layers work best together, each fitting seamlessly under the next. But we know that everybody responds to conditions differently, so each product also excels in its own right. Which ones will you take with you on your next adventure? With the TERREX Adventure Wardrobe, whatever your summit, you’re good to go. HOW TO WEAR BASE LAYERS: TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT. BY MERINO However you connect with nature, keeping control of your core temperature as you move towards your summit is always high priority. As part of the TERREX Adventure Wardrobe, TERREX has launched three new base layers designed for versatility on trails, hikes, slopes and beyond. Made to manage temperature and move sweat away from skin, choose from 100% merino wool base layers, or a lighter merino & tencel synthetic fibre blend. Each base layer is designed to sit comfortably on skin, so you can focus on enjoying the outdoors. Merino wool adapts to your changing body temperature, helping to keep you feeling warm when it’s cool, and cool when it’s hot. “My favourite piece is definitely the merino base layer - an item I believe should be a staple in everyone’s cupboard. It’s incredibly versatile, durable and comfortable.” Toni McCann, TERREX trail runner MEET THE RANGE Introducing three new base layers, ready for summits all the way up the mountain. MERINO 150gsm Our lightest base layer. Designed to wick away moisture and help manage temperature, breathable blended merino wool adapts to every intensity. MERINO 200gsm Our midweight base layer. 100% merino, the perfect balance between moisture-wicking and thermoregulation. MERINO 260gsm Our heavyweight base layer. The long-sleeved 100% merino 260gsm wool design sits comfortably on skin, for warmth on the colder days. MID LAYERS MADE FOR EVERY ADVENTURE When you’re out in nature seeking adventure, the weather can always turn. It’s one of the main reasons why packing a flexible and lightweight layer of warmth is so essential. As part of the 2023 TERREX Adventure Wardrobe, TERREX has launched a new range of mid layers. Made in part with recycled materials, and engineered with FLOOCE material, feel comfortable all day on trails, hikes and and on colder snow days. Every layer is lightweight too, letting your body move freely whilst providing a layer of warmth when required. “The TERREX tech Flooce has perfected the balance between insulation and moisture-wicking, meaning even if your are running on wintery trails, you can do so at a comfortable temperature.” Toni McCann, adidas TERREX trail runner MEET THE RANGE TERREX XPERIOR LIGHT FLEECE HOODED JACKET Our lightest mid layer. Made with over 90% recycled polyester, this lightweight, breathable fleece keeps you feeling warm and dry. The longer backside makes it backpack-compatible and the close fit sits comfortably under other layers. TERREX XPERIOR MEDIUM FLEECE PULLOVER Designed for women, this fleece is the perfect balance of lightweight and comfort. Made from 100% recycled polyester, a longer collar provides extra warmth and wind protection. A kangaroo pocket keeps hands warm and devices safe. TERREX TECHROCK REVERSIBLE HIGH PILE FLEECE HOODED JACKET Smooth on one side, Sherpa on the other. Meet the warmest fleece in the range. Reversible by design, wear the high-pile fleece side close to skin when heading up into the cold and the smooth side on your way back down. INSULATION LAYERS WITH PRIMALOFT TECH When we’re out in the great outdoors in search of summits, sometimes, especially on the colder days, an extra layer of warmth becomes essential. Made from 100% recycled materials, and ready for any outing, meet our insulation layers for 2023. A key component of the TERREX Adventure Wardrobe, insulation layers are worn over the mid layer. PRIMALOFT Gold technology maintains 98% of its warmth with the stretch and breathability to perform, even when in wet conditions. When the weather closes in, on it goes. When the weather improves, it packs down into a rucksack quickly and easily. “I add a PRIMALOFT insulation layer to keep me warm when the temperature drops.” Michi Wohlleben, adidas TERREX mountaineer MEET THE RANGE TERREX XPERIOR VARILITE PRIMALOFT HOODED JACKET Lightweight, packable jacket made with recycled materials and PRIMALOFT Gold insulation. The adjustable hem enables a perfect fit to your body and the hood provides wind protection. TERREX XPERIOR VARILITE PRIMALOFT JACKET Down-like warmth meets freedom of movement, even on the coldest of days. The elasticated cuffs allow it to fit snugly under your outer shell. With a pack-it pocket, fold it away neatly when not in use. High or low intensity, rain or shine, the insulation layer is an essential wardrobe item that will respond when you need it most. TOUGH IN TOUGH WEATHER: THE OUTER LAYER Let’s face it, sometimes we set foot into the great outdoors knowing the weather that day will be challenging. Even the clearest of starts to a day can, in what seems like moments, turn into sharp and fast winds, horizontal rain, monsoon-like downpours and driving snow. That’s why an outer layer is so important to either wear when you set off or keep close to hand in your rucksack. The final layer in the TERREX Adventure Wardrobe, the outer layer is designed to protect you from wind, rain and snow across Trail, Hike and Snow Sports. There’s a whole range of jackets designed to meet your outdoor needs. Be fully waterproof with GORE-TEX or rain-resistant with RAIN.RDY protection. When you’re on the trails, keep the winds at bay in a shell that’s wind-resistant but breathable too, so moisture and heat can escape naturally, stopping you from overheating. And for head-to-toe protection in the snow, the TERREX TECHROCK 3L GTX Bib Pants keep you feeling dry. “The TERREX XPERIOR GORE-TEX PACLITE RAIN JACKET is my favorite piece from the adidas Terrex adventure wardrobe. The fit allows me to move freely when I climb or hike and protects me from wind and rain when I fly my glider.” Michi Wohlleben – adidas TERREX mountaineer MEET THE RANGE TERREX XPERIOR WINDWEAVE JACKET Step out on the trail, ready for anything that comes your way. Pack this adidas TERREX windweave jacket for lightweight, breathable protection that lets you go further in the hills. Windweave fabric is body-mapped, allowing breathability away from your body and protects you from wind while you move freely on your trail. TERREX XPERIOR GORE-TEX PACLITE RAIN JACKET Featuring a GORE-TEX PACLITE outer fabric that provides waterproofing while remaining breathable when the hike gets more intense and the rain starts falling. The YKK Aquaguard zippers are water-repellent, and the adjustable cuffs and hem allow you to customize it to your needs. The jacket is packable, so folds away easily. Plus, the integrated visor in the hood keeps the rain at bay and helps you maintain good visibility even when the rain is getting stronger. TERREX TECHROCK 3L GORE-TEX C-KNIT JACKET Explore the backcountry and free ride in style in our 3L GORE-TEX Snow Jacket. The expertly engineered 3L GORE-TEX fabric offers protection from the elements and optimum functionality in the backcountry and beyond.

Through The Eyes Of The Fans: Mary Fowler

From Queensland to the world’s biggest stage, Mary Fowler is what you get when a creative, free spirit meets the hopes of a nation. A true midfield maestro. The kind that can unlock any defence with ease. Mesmerising dribbles, passes and goals that leave your jaw on the floor are all part of the Fowler show. Just 20-years-old, her footballing journey has taken her to all corners of the globe. From New South Wales to Manchester via Montpellier. But this summer, she’s back Down Under for the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ "Watching Mary Fowler at her best is pure joy. She plays with freedom." - Becky, UK. While she's a budding artist off the pitch, the green grass is her canvas too. And it’s no surprise those talents have taken her right to the very top. Forged in Cairns, tailor-made for international football’s lofty heights, her stints through the youth ranks made her one to watch, but at the Olympic Games, she truly took her place centre stage. "It was hard to look past Fowler at the Olympics. Especially in the quarter-final." - Poukah, Australia VOICE OF THE FAN: "It was hard to look past Fowler at the Olympics, especially in the Quarter Final. Her best performance for the national team… So far at least. In that moment, it was like seeing the future first-hand. Rubbing shoulders with some of the world’s greatest and, at times, looking like the best of the lot.Grabbing a goal too. That touch and turn, that was special." - Poukah, Australia That game might have been played nearly 5000 miles away from Australia, but the shockwaves were certainly felt back home. A young star in the making, stamping both her name and her country’s on the footballing map. "She’s an ambassador for not just Australian multiculturalism, but football’s too." - Tom, Australia And that’s where the beautiful game really works its magic. Seeing one of your own walk out onto that pitch, representing the team you love and doing things with a football you never thought were possible. "Having made her international debut at just 15-years-old, she’s racked up a fair chunk of caps ever since. It just illustrates how exciting the future of football here is." - Tom, Australia Now add in a FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ on home soil, and Fowler’s level of skill… The magic is growing.

Through The Eyes Of The Fans: Lena Oberdorf

Some may argue it takes a midfielder years to master their craft, but Lena Oberdorf is the exception to that rule. Just 21-years-old yet born for football’s biggest stage. With the ball at her feet, Lena runs the show. Her passes aren’t just hits, they’re signed, sealed and delivered to her teammates. Leaving no blade of grass uncovered. Even in her own words, she’s wise beyond her years: “I don’t recognise I’m 20. I feel when I’m on the pitch that people see a 28-year-old player.” And those that have followed Lena from the start want you to know that this wonderkid isn’t just the future, she’s taking over here and now. Starting with this summer's FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™. “With Lena, the future couldn’t be in safer hands” - Kevin, Munich When a player celebrates those same tackles just like a goal, you know you’ve got a winner amongst your ranks. Someone who understands how the small details contribute to winning the biggest honours. Take her performances at the UEFA Women’s EURO 2022™, earning Young Player of the Tournament but playing like a seasoned veteran. Leading by example in a way only a future captain can. "I'm delighted every time she goes into a duel. It's unusual to celebrate duels in this way, but with Lena Oberdorf, you can’t help yourself. Her will to win and one-on-one strength, it's the reason we’re all looking forward to the World Cup." - Kevin, Munich But for so many, the signs of a player destined for the top were clear even earlier than that. “16-year-old scoring two goals and controlling the game, It’s crazy to think how fast she’s grown into the player she is today. That game will forever stick with me." - Jasmina, Germany VOICE OF THE FAN: “It was simple from the start. On her German top flight debut, in fact. A few experts already predicted she’d be special, but that was the first time I really thought 'Wow, she’s a talent'" - Tiziana, Germany From making her FIFA Women’s World Cup™ debut at 17 – receiving her call-up whilst in school and passing her exams during that very tournament - to adding the first pieces of silverware to her trophy cabinet. The writing was on the wall. And the influence of her success on the pitch is stretching far beyond the white lines. “She inspires not only me, but thousands of young girls” - Tiziana, Germany Initial predictions for Lena were that the sky was the limit. But now, her sights are set even higher. Because mastering your craft at just 21 enables you to redefine how your role is played. Inspiring your age mates doesn’t just cement your legacy, it can define a generation’s." “Even though she is still so young, she is already facing her third major tournament. She inspires not only me, but thousands of young girls who dream of becoming a pro one day. Her journey is proof of where trusting your talent can lead you in life.” - Janis, Germany Heading to this year's FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ with the support of millions cheering on her every move. Lena Oberdorf is shooting for the stars, just like she’s always done.

Through the eyes of the fans: Alessia Russo

Great players seize the moments that matter, but superstars go one step further. Alessia Russo belongs to that second category. A striker with more than just an eye for goal. Russo has an eye for the spectacular. Award-worthy finishes that get you on your feet; constantly tiring defenders with an endless bag of tricks. Like a football version of the eye of the storm, her style of play just pulls you in. And the fans that watch her week in and week out want you to know why this summer at the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™, Alessia Russo will be impossible to ignore. “She's relentless. Non-stop for 90 minutes.” - Harriet, UK And it’s her creative flair that makes Russo a true entertainer when she has the ball at her feet. Whether it’s rejecting simple goals in favour of the breathtaking, or her unorthodox road to the top. There’s always a surprise in store. "One minute you can be calm, just watching the midfield play around with the ball and the next minute, you’re up on your feet cause she’s running in on goal in an opportunity that feels like it’s been sprung out of nowhere.” - Tom, UK She went from Charlton to the top of English football via a stop in North Carolina to rise through the American college ranks. The only thing that wasn’t a shock with Russo was how easy she’d adapt to the international stage. A hit from the get-go. “I think her star power was clear to most of us after the back-heel against Sweden.” - Drew, UK VOICE OF THE FAN:"That moment is when we knew she was one of those very rare players. Most would’ve looked for a pass after the deflection fell to her feet. In that moment, it was like seeing the future first-hand. Not Russo, she, on the biggest stage decided to pull off what seemed impossible to the rest of us. One of those memories that will never leave you."- Drew, UK Her European Championship win on home soil, created a summer of memories. Yet, so many point to that one goal as the image that sums up her whole journey. An initial deflected shot that didn’t lead to disappointment, but instead turned into something special. Replayed over and over for months on end, the moment Alessia Russo pulled a whole nation into her footballing storm. “You could be sat in a stadium full of thousands of people, but she just draws you in” - Melissa, UK Since then, Alessia Russo has had English fans on the edge of their seats. Even when she’s chasing domestic trophies, there’s a constant anticipation for what magic she might pull off next. ”She makes you feel like it’s just you and her. One-on-one. When I watch Alessia play, I’m at my happiest.” - Melissa, UK This is what sets great players apart from those that are truly special. This is what makes Alessia Russo one to watch. The eye of the storm is heading FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ this summer.
