The highlight of the night : the new Mission helmet and the AMS technology.

The Titan, still thrilling enthusiasts, it is now available in new colours and new graphic designs.
Clothing : New membrane, colors and insulation.
To face the elements, armour is called for. In 2020, CKX will offer a new performance line for one-piece suits and 3-in-1 jackets. For this collection aimed at moderate-to high-intensity activities, basic materials were reworked layer by layer: from the main fabric and its membrane to the new Vivo insulation. The result is better waterproofing (20k) and better breathability (15k) which will please the more adventurous.
In addition, CKX decided to maintain the availability and improve the quality of the comfort line (5k-5k) outfits that keep the body warm, which is one of the most sought after features.
The multi-layering principle is the basis of the CKX collection’s strategy, which will introduce complementary products with middle-layer design. In 2020, the multifunctional lining offered in the 3-in-1 models will also be available separately. CKX is adding insulated shorts to keep the seat warm. Designed to avoid hampering mobility, the insulated shorts ensure additional protection for the lower body when it’s very cold. Both the lining and the shorts come with the Vivo insulation. The surface of this new material has small openings to improve breathability without reducing the clothing’s thermal performance.
Highly appreciated by enthusiasts this season, the CKX base layer line will be back. Much like a second skin, the knit of synthetic fibres blended in the undergarments contribute to wicking away moisture, optimizing the efficiency of the other layers.
In 2020, innovation, technology and raw material quality will define CKX’s orientations. But what draws attention is this will to reinvent itself, and go beyond. CKX is a source of inspiration to all enthusiasts who share the dream of Experimenting Winter.
