Taking the short track speed skating event of this Asian Winter Games as an example, the short track speed skating competition uniforms of this event perfectly match the competitive characteristics of speed-oriented events. They apply a number of drag reduction technologies to achieve the world's lightest and most breathable level. They use 360° full-body anti-cut technology, which greatly improves the safety of athletes during competitions. The uniforms are tailored for the athletes based on their movement habits and muscle line proportions to ensure that the clothing fits the athlete's body well and improves their performance on the field.

Today's ice and snow sports are not only about strength, but also about technology. And in the upcoming Asian Winter Games, even the award-winning uniforms will be enhanced by technology.

It is understood that the award-winning uniforms tailored for the Chinese sports delegation continue the genes of the "Storm Armor" and have waterproof properties and excellent moisture permeability to resist severe weather such as storms.

The design of the award-winning uniforms this time is based on the theme of "Ice and Snow Romance". Red snowflake patterns are printed on the color blocks of the uniforms. The overall color blocks of snowflake white and red are spliced ​​together, perfectly blending the beauty of nature with the spirit of sports.
