SOFT ELEMENT – running apparel created for movement

At ES16, we believe the best running apparel is the kind you almost forget you're wearing.

That's why we've created SOFT ELEMENT – our new running series, where extreme comfort, functional materials, and a clean Scandinavian design come together.

SOFT ELEMENT is developed for the runner who demands more from their gear. Whether it's a five-kilometer run through the city, a relaxed Sunday outing, or a hard workout, the clothing should follow the body – not restrict it.

Softer. Lighter. More comfortable.

The name SOFT ELEMENT says a lot about the idea behind the series.

We've focused on materials that feel exceptionally soft against the skin, while delivering the functionality we expect from modern performance wear.

The result is running apparel with great freedom of movement and a light feel on the body. The materials are chosen to wick moisture away from the skin and provide the right balance between comfort, breathability, and performance.

It's clothing made to move in.

Performance without looking like classic running apparel

We didn't just want to create another running collection.

SOFT ELEMENT needed its own identity.

That's why the design is clean and minimalist, with the distinctive ES16 identity. Fit, details, and materials have been developed with performance in mind, but at the same time the series has a look that works far beyond the run itself.

For us, technical sportswear doesn't have to look technical.

Developed for many kilometers

When you run, the small details matter.

A seam that starts to irritate after ten kilometers. A material that gets heavy with sweat. A fit that won't stay in place when the pace picks up.

That's why comfort in motion has been central to the development of SOFT ELEMENT.

The fit is made for running, the materials offer plenty of freedom of movement, and every piece in the collection has been developed with one goal:

So you can focus on your run – and not on your clothes.

From cycling to running – the same ES16 philosophy

For many years, ES16 has developed performance wear for cyclists, where the demands for fit, materials, and comfort are extremely high.

We bring that experience into the running world.

SOFT ELEMENT is built on the same philosophy: Good sportswear should combine function, comfort, and design – without compromise.

We've taken our experience with technical materials and performance apparel and turned it into a running series that we ourselves want to train in.

Find your element

Running can be the chase for a faster time.

It can be the early morning run before the rest of the world wakes up. The run with friends. The long kilometers where you clear your head. Or simply the feeling of getting out and moving.

Whatever your reason for running, your clothes should be the part you don't have to think about.
