FALL / WINTER 2011
In 2010, the world was introduced to <strong>ZigTech</strong>,<br />
the latest footwear innovation from <strong>Reebok</strong>.<br />
With its never seen before zigzag design,<br />
packaged with the unique benefits of ENERGY<br />
and less wear and tear, <strong>ZigTech</strong> is already<br />
on the feet of millions of consumers throughout<br />
the world. Simply said, ZIG IS BIG!!<br />
To continue this incredible momentum and<br />
more importantly, to take the ENERGY of<br />
<strong>ZigTech</strong> (literally) from the feet up to the<br />
body, we are launching <strong>ZigTech</strong> Apparel.<br />
The goal of this brochure is to arm you with the<br />
power of knowledge and the ENERGY to further<br />
expand our story and to help make <strong>ZigTech</strong> the<br />
most trusted and reliable product for athletes<br />
at all levels.<br />
“THE 30-SECOND ELEVATOR PITCH”<br />
Like <strong>ZigTech</strong> footwear, <strong>ZigTech</strong> Apparel is all about ENERGY<br />
<strong>ZigTech</strong> Apparel is made with special fibers called Celliant ®<br />
which are knit or woven into the fabric of each garment.<br />
These fibers are made with a collection of natural minerals that take<br />
energy emitted by the body and recycle it back to the body through the skin.<br />
As this recycled energy returns to the body, it helps to<br />
increase oxygen levels on average of 7%.<br />
Increase in oxygen levels = more energy
WHAT IS CELLIANT ®<br />
Celliant ® is a specially formulated technical<br />
performance fiber that is knit or woven into<br />
fabrics. Products containing Celliant have<br />
been clinically proven to enhance oxygen<br />
levels in skin tissue. Celliant fibers are<br />
created using a collection of optically<br />
responsive natural minerals that get infused<br />
into polyester fibers.<br />
Celliant is used in several product categories<br />
including athletic apparel, bedding, hosiery<br />
and medical bandages and can be found in<br />
products from Taylor Made, Ironman T3<br />
Recovery Products, Serta Mattress and<br />
Achieve O2 Socks.
HOW DOES ZIGTECH APPAREL WORK<br />
Celliant ® fibers are knit or woven into every piece of <strong>ZigTech</strong><br />
Apparel. These fibers contain a proprietary blend of 13<br />
This recycled energy absorbed by the body<br />
through the fibers triggers biological functions<br />
Fabric<br />
optically responsive natural minerals that are blended with<br />
polyester fibers.<br />
The human body constantly emits energy. The Celliant fibers<br />
act as a catalyst, absorbing the energy emitted by the body<br />
such as increased blood circulation.<br />
This function helps to increase oxygen levels<br />
on an average of 7%, giving you more energy<br />
for sport and life.<br />
