Rawlings Teams Up with Zoombang™

Rawlings has partnered with Zoombang™ to live on the cutting edge of sports technology.

Rawlings Gear sells an entire line of protective equipment and compression shirts and girdles made with Zoombang™ polymers that absorb impact while being lightweight and flexible.

Zoombang™ equipment was developed through collaboration with respected professional trainers, equipment managers and professional athletes. The unique Zoombang™ viscoelastic polymer is a semi-solid, plastic-like material that is extremely soft at rest and conforms to any shape but instantly behaves as a solid on impact.

The Zoombang™ material is soft and fluid-like to the touch. On impact, the Zoombang™ molecules lock together, spreading the shock to provide maximum protection. After impact, Zoombang™ material returns to its original state.

Zoombang™ technology has many benefits for the Rawlings athlete.

• It dramatically improves the comfort and fit of traditional pads by dissipating up to 60% more energy than foam and gels while being 40% lighter than gels.
• It absorbs up to 80% of impact forces.
• It is nontoxic and won’t dry out, freeze or melt.

Visit RawlingsGear.com or contact a Rawlings Gear Customer Care representative at (866) 678-GEAR(4327) to purchase Zoombang™ for Rawlings apparel and equipment.
