Skin-friendly and Odor-Resistant Material
In a hot summer day, we are all looking for clothes that make us feel not only comfortable but also confident. The choice of materials for everyday wear is crucial in this regard. A cloth that prevents a bacterial growth and therefore makes it odor-resistant is what meets our needs. While the industry is in the process searching for a better solution to replace chemical treatment, Victect® emerges as a game-changer, offering not just a solution to odor control, but also redefining our expectation for daily fashion.
The technology applied to fabricate such an ideal material is Air-Coating, often seen in semiconductor manufacturing, which add to the yarn a protective metal coat without generating any chemical wastewater. Unlike typical functional yarns that might compromise comfort, the amount of metal molecules attached to the fibers is so small that a garment made of such a fabric is still light and skin-friendly. Moreover, Victect® can be blended with natural fibers, such as Tencel™ , cotton and wool to achieve a soft cotton-like touch while offering advanced odor resistant feature.
With an exquisite craftsmanship and a minimalist design, HUNDR.’s design team proposes two primary collections that incorporate such a material, both featuring a diverse selection of products. In the essential collection that comes in close contact with the skin, Mid-Low Rise Boy Shorts, Boxer Brief, and Scoop Neck Front Seam Tank Top all contain Victect® yarns. In the Accessories Series, the team offers a wide selection of products including Cotton Waffle Towel, Light Cushion Cotton Tabi Socks, and Light Cushion Wool Socks.
Thanks to the invention of Victect® fabric and a good variety of products available, we are able to avoid many embarrassing scenarios that would otherwise occur. For instance, by wearing Victect® clothes, we don’t need to worry about the unpleasant smell caused by bacteria feeding on the sweat after a rush commuting to work or an intense workout. In a special occasion such as hiking or camping that people have to wear a pair of socks or an undergarment for long hours, Mid-Low Rise Boy Shorts or Boxer Brief enhance comfort while maintaining freshness throughout a day.
The material woven with Victect® yarns may help in preserving fabric freshness. It is ideal for home textiles. The Cotton Waffle Towel, for example, has excellent water absorption and releases moisture quickly. In a humid environment such as bathroom or rainy season, it prevents a growth of bacteria and odor formation. The towel is also available in a small size and easy to be carried in a bag. It is a perfect choice for daily use, travel or sport activities.
In a competitive market, Victect®'s appeal lies not only in its functional superiority but also in its commitment to sustainability and longevity. By extending product lifespans and reducing environmental impact through eco-friendly materials, Victect® products meet the need of eco-conscious consumers.
HUNDR. promises a blend of comfort, durability, and freshness in daily life. With the choice of Victect® fabric, the design team proposes a series of essential products that help ease the pressure that we feel from a fast-paced lifestyle. Dress yourself in comfortable clothing. Feeling comfortable and confident in your clothes, it would make you feel free to move and focus on your performance.
