how is odor an issue for you?

Going to the gym, cycling for a couple of hours or a good session at the climbing gym are all situations where I tend to wear shirts made out of synthetic fibers because of their wicking properties. The downside of these shirts is that the can tend to get rather smelly, particularly if you leave them in the hamper for a day or two before washing them.

how did you test the shirt?

I've worn my Agion Active shirt to a couple of climbing and bouldering sessions at the climbing gym. A typical session runs for two or three hours. It's also gone through the wash after each session and still appears to be working.

how did the shirt perform?

After working up a sweat, the treated side of the shirt was odour-free, while the un-treated side was smelly. The first time I wore it, I left it in the laundry hamper for a couple of days before washing it, and even after that time, the treated side was still odour-free.

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

It would be nice to see this applied to shirts specifically designed for cycling, cycling shorts and perhaps even socks for hiking.

I'm planning on walking across Hadrian's Wall in England this summer. It's an 84-mile long 2000-year old wall that the Roman Emperor Hadrian built at the northern extent of the Roman Empire. I'd be interested in testing a couple of full Agion Active-treated shirts on the journey (about a week of hiking an average of 20-25 km/day) if you have any.
