The rhythm of adventure knows no bounds. It inspires a fluid motion from one environment to the next and encourages us to fulfill our need to stay active, to keep moving. It’s a 2:00 a.m. wake-up call to hit the trail for your first splitboarding trip. It’s wading upstream in search of new waters to fish. It’s racing a setting sun while bouldering in the high desert. And sometimes it’s as simple as a blissed-out parking lot session after surfing with friends. The trick to transcending from one adventure to the next? Well, the Ninja Suit by independently owned brand Airblaster knows a thing or two about that.
Born in the Pacific Northwest in 2006, the Ninja Suit has bridged the gap between action sports and outdoor adventures for over a decade. As the original one-piece base layer, the Ninja Suit is a pivotal piece of performance wear for snowboarding’s top athletes. While it’s rooted in action sports, the Ninja Suit is also becoming a camp kit essential for outdoor enthusiasts.
By constructing the suits with a natural fiber Woolverino blend, which dries two times faster and is 45% stronger than Merino, Airblaster has broadened the versatility of traditional base layers. Clever innovations like a 350-degree waist zip prove the Ninja Suit is a carefully considered design for the active outdoor lifestyle. Combining convenience, comfort and technical performance, it’s no wonder we’re seeing more of our friends opt for this long underwear around the fire. The latest Ninja Suit collection will be available in October from myninjasuit.com, backcountry.com and Evo.
