“For me, mobility means freedom – whether in a wheelchair or on a handbike.”
Felix Frohofer ( @felixfrohofer ) is 30 years old and has been a passionate competitive athlete since childhood. He began competitive alpine skiing at the age of 12 before later turning to handcycling. "I love taking on new challenges and constantly pushing myself," he says.
His daily life is characterized by movement – or as Felix calls it, "walking." "Even though I can't move my legs, I always say 'walking' when I'm in a wheelchair. 'Driving' for me is the car or the bike," he explains with a wink.

Felix pays attention to sustainable choices in his life, especially when shopping. "I only buy vegetables and meat from Switzerland, ideally from the region. For other products, I make sure they have the shortest possible transport routes." His values and his sense of sustainability are perfectly reflected in his ambassador role at NIKIN.
The TreeHoodie is a real favorite – stylish and sustainable!
When it comes to his favorite NIKIN pieces, Felix has a hard time choosing. However, he's particularly taken with the TreeHoodie in Bordeaux . "I like NIKIN products across the board—from the overshirt to the socks ." For Felix, the combination of style and sustainability is paramount.
