The project establishes a new design paradigm for the PERFORMAX SS24 Men’s Running collection, aiming to create an elevated performance line that functions as a seamless extension of the athlete. Rooted in deep user empathy, it analyses the needs of diverse running archetypes, from urban sprinters to trail endurance athletes, while primarily focusing on recreational endurance runners. By understanding their interaction with terrain, climate, and personal goals, the collection forms a clear design narrative. This insight shapes a curated range where each product serves a defined purpose. The collection combines advanced material science with a dynamic visual language. Core PERFORMAX technologies such as Kooltex, Quick Dry, and Sixtech are integrated alongside UV resistance and anti-chafing construction. These functions are expressed through refined aesthetics, including typographic prints, utility infographics, and modern color blocking. The project culminates in a holistic running system supported by research, ideation, technical specifications, and final product photography.
