Running connects us with nature, with the city or town we live in or visit, with the outdoors, and with that unique feeling of freedom we enjoy as the miles flow beneath our feet. That\u2019s why every new collection we launch aims to accompany runners on that journey, bringing technical innovation, comfort, and a touch of inspiration.  <\/p>\n<p>With <strong>STELLAR<\/strong>, we\u2019re taking another step forward to offer a technical garment that adds to the joy of running. It\u2019s a collection of <a href=\"https:\/\/42krunning.com\/en\/shop\/mens-running-clothing\/mens-long-sleeve-t-shirts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>technical long-sleeve tops<\/strong><\/a>, made entirely from <strong>100% recycled fabric<\/strong>, that <strong>pays tribute<\/strong> to the universe and <strong>to four stars<\/strong> whose light guides this proposal. A collection designed for those looking for <strong>versatile, durable pieces with exclusive design<\/strong> for training or racing in transitional seasons and on cool days.  <\/p>\n<h2><strong>STELLAR: a collection made with 100% recycled fabric<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The starting point for the STELLAR collection is its <strong>Neo-Tec fabric<\/strong>, made from 100% recycled polyester. Sustainability is one of 42K\u2019s strategic pillars, and more and more collections incorporate fabrics that focus on recycling and the lowest possible environmental impact. <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_79523\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-79523\" style=\"width: 2048px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/42krunning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/camiseta-running-manga-larga-stellar-42k-00008.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-79523 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/42krunning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/camiseta-running-manga-larga-stellar-42k-00008.jpg\" alt=\"Stellar: a collection of long-sleeve running tops\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-79523\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">STELLAR Antares<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But choosing the fabric isn\u2019t only about sustainability\u2014it\u2019s also technical. Neo-Tec stands out for its <strong>soft feel against the skin<\/strong> and its <strong>special 140 g\/m\u00b2 weight<\/strong>, making it an ideal fabric for long-sleeve tops or winter running tops. This higher weight adds extra durability and, at the same time, more warmth\u2014making the difference on training days when temperatures are lower at dawn or as evening falls.  <\/p>\n<h3><strong>A collection inspired by the stars<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/42krunning.com\/en\/collections-42k\/stellar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">STELLAR collection<\/a> <strong>is inspired by four great stars<\/strong> in our sky: <strong>Naos, Vega, Antares <\/strong>and<strong> Alpha Orionis<\/strong>. The universe has served as an aesthetic and conceptual guide for the development of these designs. <\/p>\n<p>As a tribute, each top features on one sleeve the <strong>star\u2019s name, its astronomical coordinates, and a depiction of the constellation it belongs to<\/strong>. A detail that gives each garment its own identity and strengthens the bond between the runner and that infinite universe that opens above their head on every night training session or outdoor run. <\/p>\n<p>The result is <strong>four exclusive models<\/strong>, with bold, original colour combinations that convey strength, energy, and movement.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_79545\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-79545\" style=\"width: 2048px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/42krunning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/camiseta-running-manga-larga-stellar-42k-00029.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-79545 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/42krunning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/camiseta-running-manga-larga-stellar-42k-00029.jpg\" alt=\"STELLAR: 100% recycled technical long-sleeve running top\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-79545\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">STELLAR Vega<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>The four STELLAR models: Naos, Vega, Antares, and Alpha Orionis<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Each star inspires a unique design within the collection.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/42krunning.com\/en\/shop\/mens-running-clothing\/mens-long-sleeve-t-shirts\/long-sleeve-running-t-shirt-stellar-naos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Naos<\/strong><\/a>: petrol blue and vivid orange.<br \/>\nNaos is one of the hottest stars known, and its design pays tribute to that extreme temperature. <strong>Petrol blue<\/strong> dominates the overall look, contrasted with a <strong>vivid orange<\/strong> that conveys energy and vitality.
