- Abstract
- The main objective of the SHAPE study was to assess the anthropometry of elite male rowers and develop customized size charts and sportswear with adequate fit in static and dynamic rowing postures. This paper briefly discusses the anthropometry of Belgian elite male rowers and focuses on the fit features of a related unisuit called SHAPE which is compared against a reference (SMARTFIT) with similar materials and design, whereof the garment construction is based on body charts of average Belgian males. Four elite male rowers evaluated both unisuits in garment size 52 and 58. Most of the ten fit features investigated for SHAPE unisuit were allocated average scores between 3 (adequate fit) and 4 (very good fit). In static posture, the overall fit of the SHAPE unisuit was found slightly better than of SMARTFIT unisuit (average score 3.8 and 3.1 respectively). Unlike SMARTFIT, SHAPE unisuit based on rowers body dimensions scored equally well in static and dynamic rowing postures catch and finish and will likely successfully accommodate repetitive sport movements.
