Outdoor Research Echo L/S Tee

The new, 100%-recycled Echo L/S Tee has been upgraded to perform even better as a single summer layer and a base cold-weather layer. Better stretch and an improved fit let the garment move with you, a more durable and softer hand feel increase comfort and longevity, and eco-friendly mesh fabric featuring AirVent moisture management keeps you dry and sweat-free. www.outdoorresearch.com/ca

ActiveFresh Technology

96 100 0 1

For years, typical odor control technologies used silver and other biocides to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria. However, this is not a sustainable solution. Enter ActiveFresh Technology, a new environmentally-conscious technology that inhibits environmental odors and bacterial odors by actively preventing the buildup of bad smells during high-exertion sports. It’s a bio-based, non-antimicrobial technology that was invented to allow you to spend more time in closer proximity with others.

“The impact of clothing on the environment is becoming more noticeable every day. We believe that using natural solutions like ZQ-Certified Merino wool is paramount. Merino wool is renewable. It’s made up of proteins and amino acids. It naturally breaks down in water and soil. It is perfect for making responsible natural performance apparel. And it’s important that it’s also sourced in the most responsible way possible.” www.smartwool.ca
