The Adidas Camo windbreaker is a full-zip windbreaker made from 100% polyester taffeta. It features a hood with drawcord-adjustment, side pockets with snap-button closure, elastic cuffs, and a drawcord on the hem. It comes in Adidas’ own ‘Multicolor’, which has more than a passing resemblance to Flecktarn, for those of you who are into German camouflage.

Many of us who are married and lead active lifestyles don’t wear our bands because of concerns over injuries. The guys at QALO Ring had the same concerns so they did something about it. They created the QALO pronounced [KAY-LO] for Q-uality A-thletics L-ove O-utdoors. The idea is that it is a bit more malleable and less likely to injure the wearer. Made of silicon, they are available in a variety of colors and both Men’s and Women’s styles.
We’ve all seen the “Make me a sammich” meme. Now, the ladies can get their revenge.
Pretty clever. Ya gotta laugh.
Comes as part of a “Fight Like A Girl” three pack.
We all have much to owe Stephanie L Kwolek, who invented the basic Kevlar compound while working for DuPont in 1964. Amazingly, she was attempting to develop a material to replace steel radial belts in tires when a polymer she was working didn’t quite come out right. On a hunch, she had it spun into fiber that turned out to be five times as strong as steel as well fire resistant. Further development resulted in the Kevlar family of aramids we know today, although it took a decade for the material to be introduced into soft body armor. Eventually, Ms Kwolek was honored with a National Medal of Technology in 1996 for her work that has resulted in countless lives saved.
DuPont continues to develop the material discovered by Ms Kwolek. Just last week, they announced that the millionth vest made from Kevlar XP had been manufactured and they recently launched DuPont Kevlar AS450X, specifically engineered for greater comfort to the body armour wearer while protecting against multiple threats including bullets, knives, spikes, bullets and blunt objects as well as DuPont Kevlar XP S104, a water repellent fabric that offers enhanced bullet stopping power and reduced back face deformation, even in hot and humid climates and wet conditions.
Born on July 31, 1923, in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, Stephanie L Kwolek passed away in Wilmington, Delaware, on 18 June, 2014 at the age of 90.
Thank you for your hard work. Rest In Peace.
