Eurobike '13: Maloja dresses the kids

When bikers with an affinity for the Engadin think of Maloja, they tend to think of the village on Lake Sils - but the clothing from the German manufacturer of the same name is also well-known here. For the new children's collection, the German sports fashion designers are borrowing the Rhaeto-Romanic language and sewing useful functions into the fabrics.

"Malumpaz" - that's what the makers of Maloja sportswear call their children's line. The artificial word is made up of the village name Maloja and the Rhaeto-Romanic word "Lumpaz" (meaning rascal). Boys and girls aged 3 to 13 are dressed in both winter and summer clothing.

In addition to streetwear, the summer clothing naturally also includes bike items such as jerseys and cycling shorts. Maloja is particularly adaptable when it comes to streetwear: If sleeves or trouser legs become too short, the items have neon-colored seams. If you separate these at the inner lining, you can let out more fabric and the jacket or trousers grow with you.
