Our Race to Zero range is the world’s lightest packable system of running gear

Our Race to Zero gear is an ultralight and super minimalist system of running gear that’s built to work together whether you’re running 5km or for 5 days straight. The key is that every piece in the system packs down into itself into a black, zero-shaped pocket. It’s one of those minimalist designs that’s so simple you end up wondering why no-one’s done it before. And it’s probably why it picked up WIRED Gear of the Year.

  • Every piece is built with advanced materials, packs down into itself, and fits into the palm of your hand.

  • The ultralight t shirt that packs down into itself to fit in the palm of your hand

    Engineered with thousands of tiny perforations to let air flow in and out, the Race to Zero T Shirt is made to take on the world’s toughest races or your daily training run. Weighing just 113 grams, it’s ultra-soft, high-wicking, fast-drying, and stretches with you whatever you’re doing. A silver-based antimicrobial treatment on the t shirt fights the odour molecules created by sweat to keep you comfortable whether you’re 5km or 5 days into your run.

What is the race to zero?

There are some very simple rules of running. Rule one: lighter is nearly always better. Your gear should feel weightless. So our Race to Zero gear is the lightest running system in the world. The mission is to get as close to zero as we can on the weighing scales, so once you put it on you forget it’s there.

  • The Race to Zero Puffer is built with compressed insulation

    The warmest layer in the system is built with super-compact synthetic insulation that’s compressed down to a third of its normal size then anchored down with stitched bartacks to reduce weight, bulk and the potential for cold spots. The outer shell and inner lining are made from an ultra-lightweight, recycled nylon engineered to be the same thickness as silk. Two massive, zipped side vents help to cool you down if you get hot – so you can open up the jacket like a sleeping bag on both sides if you need to cool down rapidly. And it weighs just 277 grams.

Every piece in the system packs down into itself in exactly the same way

At the bottom of all the Race to Zero gear you’ll find a black, zero-shaped pocket. To pack the piece up, you turn the pocket inside out and push the gear into it until you’re left with a pouch that fits into the palm of your hand. Once it’s packed down you can stuff it into your race bag, or clip it on using the elastic hanging loop.

  • The Race to Zero Shorts weigh just 127 grams

    Built from densely-woven nylon microfibres that are engineered to be the same thickness as silk, the Race to Zero Shorts are water repellent, fast drying and highly elastic, ultra-soft and lightweight. All the seams and details are laser cut and bonded to reduce the chance of chafing. And the inner lining of the shorts is made from super soft material as the Race to Zero T Shirt. It means it’s engineered with thousands of tiny perforations to create airflow, and a silver-based antimicrobial treatment fights the odour molecules created by sweat.

  • Vollebak started life on a run

    While startups normally begin with two kids in a garage with a dream, the idea for Vollebak started life while we were running through the Amazon, Alps and Namib Desert. While surviving heatstroke, broken bones, bullet ants, angry snakes, tarantulas, hallucinations, and falling asleep while running, we decided that setting up our own company wouldn’t be so hard. We’d always have access to running water, a toilet and a bed. And we could try and tackle some of the challenges we’d faced. Today we make some of the most advanced gear on the planet. And it now includes the gear we’d loved to have raced in.
