Polygiene Treatment is a technology applied to fabrics that prevents the growth of odor-causing bacteria. This means your climbing shirts and other activewear will stay fresher for longer, even after intense workouts or extended wear. It reduces the need for frequent washing, saving you time and extending the life of your garments.

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor, which measures how much UV radiation can penetrate the fabric. A UPF rating of 50+ indicates that the fabric blocks over 98% of harmful UV rays, providing excellent protection from sun exposure. This is crucial for outdoor activities, as it helps prevent sunburn and long-term skin damage.

CoolTM Fabric is a proprietary technology designed to actively reduce temperatures by reflecting a significant percentage of UV rays. This helps keep you cool and comfortable during hot weather, making it ideal for climbing, hiking, or any outdoor adventure where staying cool is essential.

Underarm gussets are specially designed triangular or diamond-shaped pieces of fabric sewn into the underarm area of a shirt. They provide greater range of motion and comfort, allowing you to reach, stretch, and move freely while climbing or engaging in other activities. This design feature helps prevent fabric from pulling or restricting movement.

Mineral-based fabric incorporates minerals into its composition to enhance performance. This type of fabric helps keep you cool by reflecting heat and UV rays, making it perfect for outdoor activities in warm weather. It not only improves comfort but also contributes to better overall performance during your adventures.

While these technologies are designed with outdoor activities in mind, they are also great for everyday wear. The odor control from Polygiene Treatment, UV protection from UPF ratings, and cooling properties of CoolTM Fabric make these garments versatile and comfortable for daily use, whether you're running errands or enjoying a casual day out.
