how is odor an issue for you?

I am 52. In August 2006 I was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer. Since then I've hiked 120 miles of the A.T. and climbed very many mountains. I hiked over 50 miles last week to stay in shape. I leave to climb Colorado's Longs Peak in March. I sweat every day and it's important to me not to be offensive. I'd rather inspire.

how did you test the shirt?

I wore the shirt while hiking pretty much the south side to the north side of Austin, Texas. I wore it 5 days in a row (I know, gross) while I hiked on those days. I covered an estimated 50 miles. I had a small pack on as well which kept my back nice and clammy.

how did the shirt perform?

The shirt really seemed to keep my after-hike odor at a minimum. I noticed people weren't moving away from me on the bus ride after the hike like they sometimes do. I have to admit as the days passed I was impressed.

What other products would you like to see Agion Active in?

Boot liners. In fact anything to do with feet.

Thank you for the shirt. I'm looking for sponsors. I'm a 52 year old cancer survivor and professional mountain climber. I'm serious. I am retired and am going to devote myself to doing great things, then visit hospitals and give away pictures from my climbs and outdoor swag to inspire some of my fellow survivors!
