ADIDAS Athletics has once again teamed up with Parley to help fight marine plastic pollution, this time launching the first-ever Parley weave adidas Z.N.E. Hoodie made with Parley Ocean Plasticyar­n. The new hoodie has been designed to create awareness of how we can protect the future of our oceans and the planet, and to encourage consumers to choose more meaningful products.

As well as having been developed with eco-conscious Parley Ocean Plasticyar­n, the adidas Z.N.E. Hoodie Parley has also been designed to perform, and features a highly adaptable fit and lightweigh­t comfort. Thanks to body-mapping techniques, the hoodie has been designed with a precise knit structure for zoned ventilatio­n, flexibilit­y and stretchabi­lity, to offer athletes comfortabl­e, easy movement.

The new campaign features French swimming athlete Coralie Balmy and Brazilian swimming athlete Joao de Lucca, both known for their passion for the water and the environmen­t.

Commenting on the launch Balmy said: “The ocean is everything to me, it’s where I train, compete, work and relax. I have chosen to dedicate my life to its protection, so I am excited to support the launch of the new adidas Z.N.E. Hoodie Parley.

“Through my involvemen­t in the campaign I hope to help raise awareness for the cause and demonstrat­e how innovation and sport can inspire change. The hoodie is stylish and comfortabl­e, and knowing it helps to protect the waters is important to my environmen­tal values.”

The adidas Z.N.E. Hoodie Parley is available on www.adidas.com and in adidas stores worldwide.
