For those of you who aerobicize over the mountains during the months of nosnow, Euro styled gear is always something to consider. Light, trim, stylish. On the trends, Dynafit recently launched a line of summer clothing, footwear and accessories that cross between bicycle, hike/run and climb. I checked this selection out at OR show and it truly is nice. We’ll no doubt rock some of it ourselves. Not sure how the white would hold up to our truck and dirt lifestyle, but they make some darker themed stuff as well. All available next summer.

Aura Activator in Dynafit's new shoes (the small metal insert in center of sole) is said to help with balance and endurance as this PR photo is intended to convey. As far as we know, it's a magnet intended to provide the ostensible benefits of other types of worn magnets..

Dynafit Summer, for backcountry skiers in the off season. Everything from shoes to bicycle gloves.

The backpack includes a hook to hike-a-bike your mountain bicycle over the highlands. Trekking poles and more round out the line.
The selection for next summer (availability will begin this coming January) includes socks, a variety of bicycle compatible shorts, backpacks, performance shirts and more. Really quite impressive.
