2024 was adidas at the Olympics. In Paris the brand dressed Team GB, France and Ethiopia in athletics kit engineered with RHEON — the panels you can see on the legs, back and chest of the sprint suits. Noah Lyles, who had re-signed with adidas that February through the end of the decade, won the Olympic 100m by five thousandths of a second, and Tigst Assefa took marathon silver. Sabastian Sawe closed the year with a 2:02:05 marathon debut win in Valencia.

Half tights are fitted compression shorts ending at mid-thigh, worn as the outer racing garment by sprinters and, increasingly, elite marathoners. They exist for fit — zero loose fabric, zero chafe, a locked-in feel from the blocks — not for proven speed.
That last part matters: across 51 randomized studies, compression garments show no significant effect on race times. What they measurably do is damp muscle vibration while you run and nudge recovery afterwards. The rest of their argument is made of fit, and it is a good argument.
