Nike and Hyperice have collaborated to introduce new wearable technology aimed at enhancing athletes' warmup and recovery processes. The Nike x Hyperice boots and vest are designed to offer heat, compression massage, and adjustable body temperature regulation. These designs provide athletes with tools to optimize their performance and recovery.
The Nike x Hyperice boots are high-top shoes featuring a system of dual-air Normatec bladders and heating elements. These elements work together to distribute heat evenly across the foot and ankle, aiding in muscle relaxation and faster recovery. The boots allow for synchronized or individual operation of heat and compression for each foot, with three levels of intensity controlled by a battery pack in the insoles. The vest, on the other hand, employs thermoelectric coolers to deliver instant heating and cooling without the need for ice or liquid. Thermal modules and air bladders within the vest adjust to the wearer's body, ensuring comfort and effective temperature control.
